Acting
Do we still sing the praises of folly like Erasmus, or is it trendy again to be smart? And if so, who is the smartest? Who can talk about the medals won at the Olympic Games in London, but at the same time knows who Captain Haddock is? Who knows whether Lacan was a hair growth product or a psychoanalyst and can also program their own digital television? Who has déjà vu when leafing through the Encyclopedia Britannica and when reading the interviews with the new Miss Waregem Koerse? Who, oh who, is the smartest person in Flanders, Belgium, Europe, and by extension, the world? That is determined by a fierce battle between three fellow human beings. Every day, someone is eliminated, someone who may not be the smartest, but who is perhaps cherished in their family circle because of their many other talents. The others advance and are joined by a new challenger every day.
30 Belgian top athletes and 10 famous Flemings compete against each other every day in a heroic and unique heptathlon. And they all do this in a metal container of 12 by 2.2 meters, which is driven to them. And they only get one assignment: blast as fast and as hard as possible on every part to set the best time and score over the entire course.
The Voice van Vlaanderen is a Belgian reality singing competition for the Flemish part of Belgium, and which is part of the franchise that started in the Netherlands as The Voice of Holland. It kicked-off on November 25, 2011 on VTM, shortly before the francophone Belgian variant The Voice Belgique went on air. A second season of The Voice van Vlaanderen for the 2012-13 season has started. One of the important premises of the show is the quality of the singing talent. Four coaches, themselves popular performing artists, train the talents in their group and occasionally perform with them. Talents are selected in blind auditions, where the coaches cannot see, but only hear the auditioner.

Imagine: you get the chance to pack your bags and head to New York right away. That's what happens to five young people this fall in the VTM GO series The Big Waffle. They work at a waffle stand called Wafels & Dinges, run by Leuven native and entrepreneur Thomas De Geest. He himself moved to the States almost thirty years ago—never to return. The five immerse themselves in real New York life. They live together. They work together. And they throw their entire lives online: from their first subway ride to the crazy end-of-year pressure behind the counter. They become New Yorkers among New Yorkers. Four long months, 24/7. Why would you sleep in a city that never sleeps?
