This show held every Sunday evening discussed news with a comedic twist, similar to American formats like The Daily Show, Last Week Tonight and the Colbert Report. Lubach became most famous for his short skit\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=ELD2AwFN9Nc\"><em>America First, The Netherlands Second<\/em><\/a>, and we <a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.transparent.com\/dutch\/zondag-met-lubach-the-dutch-daily-show\/\">wrote about him before<\/a>. But then,\u00a0<em><a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.transparent.com\/dutch\/zondag-met-lubach-the-end-of-a-dutch-tv-show-era\/\">Zondag met Lubach<\/a>\u00a0<\/em>ended &#8211; the show had its last\u00a0<em>seizoen\u00a0<\/em>(season), and everybody wondered what was going to happen next. Lubach was going to do new things, that much was certain, but was this beloved format over? As it turns out&#8230; It couldn&#8217;t be more alive!<\/p>\n<h1><strong><em>De Avondshow<\/em><\/strong><\/h1>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Interbellum bulletin | De Avondshow met Arjen Lubach\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/qHIxhRLbVQ4?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>On February 21, 2022, it was time &#8211; the first\u00a0<em>Avondshow\u00a0<\/em><em>met Arjen Lubach\u00a0<\/em>(Evening Show with Arjen Lubach). It is basically the same concept as before, but with a few tweaks. Now that there are <strong>guests in every episode<\/strong>, it feels more like The Daily Show or Conan than Last Week Tonight. And that&#8217;s also because it&#8217;s cadence changed <strong>from weekly to 4 times a week<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Guests so far have been\u00a0<em>Bekende Nederlanders\u00a0<\/em>(famous Dutch people) including Ronald Goedemondt, Brigitte Kaandorp, Maarten Keulemans and Kim van Kooten. While the interviews still feel a little awkward, I&#8217;m sure with time it will all be smoothened out! And it does give space to one-on-ones with these people that are less common in the Netherlands. You are more likely to see\u00a0<em>tafelrondes\u00a0<\/em>(&#8220;table rounds&#8221;, talk shows where people sit at a table and have conversations), like\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.transparent.com\/dutch\/the-end-of-a-dutch-tv-era-dwdd-stops\/\"><em>De Wereld Draait Door<\/em><\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>However, there are things that have stayed the same. An introductory monologue, akin to Stephen Colbert&#8217;s, discusses what happened in the news. This is followed by a single more in-depth topic. The final part of the show is the aforementioned interview.<\/p>\n<h1><strong>The Topics<\/strong><\/h1>\n<div id=\"attachment_7650\" style=\"width: 1034px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone post-item__attachment\"><a href=\"https:\/\/unsplash.com\/photos\/L4v4T5aDtnE\" aria-label=\"Brandon Nelson L4v4T5aDtnE Unsplash 1024x440\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-7650\" class=\"size-large wp-image-7650\"  alt=\"Arjen Lubach Cruise Ships Cruiseschepen Zondag met Luabch Avondshow NPRO TV\" width=\"1024\" height=\"440\" \/ src=\"https:\/\/blogs.transparent.com\/dutch\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11\/2022\/02\/brandon-nelson-L4v4T5aDtnE-unsplash-1024x440.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.transparent.com\/dutch\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11\/2022\/02\/brandon-nelson-L4v4T5aDtnE-unsplash-1024x440.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blogs.transparent.com\/dutch\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11\/2022\/02\/brandon-nelson-L4v4T5aDtnE-unsplash-350x150.jpg 350w, https:\/\/blogs.transparent.com\/dutch\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11\/2022\/02\/brandon-nelson-L4v4T5aDtnE-unsplash-768x330.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blogs.transparent.com\/dutch\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11\/2022\/02\/brandon-nelson-L4v4T5aDtnE-unsplash-1536x660.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/blogs.transparent.com\/dutch\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11\/2022\/02\/brandon-nelson-L4v4T5aDtnE-unsplash-2048x880.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-7650\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo by <a href=\"https:\/\/unsplash.com\/@noodlenelson?utm_source=unsplash&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_content=creditCopyText\">Brandon Nelson<\/a> on <a href=\"https:\/\/unsplash.com\/s\/photos\/cruise-shio?utm_source=unsplash&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_content=creditCopyText\">Unsplash<\/a><\/p><\/div>\n<p>The\u00a0<em>oorlog\u00a0<\/em>(war) in Ukraine could of course not be avoided, so the very first <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=zJQX_rlTNuU\">and second<\/a> monologue, linked above, discuss it, and it was a topic all week.
