VTM claims it brought Flanders a new generation of presenters, no longer boringly decent but human, friendly, playful, sexy, the summit being Koen Wauters, followed by various recruited Flemish singers and completely new discoveries like Hans Otten. That applies to all kinds of formats, from quizzes and other games to hit programs and talk shows, often presented in male-female duo or by a man plus an assistant.
