Slovak television surprised Martin Nikodým three times last year. At first it was a stop sign for the popular Milujem Slovensko, which they evaluated as an exhausted project. Another piece of news from Job was the cancellation of the early-evening quiz “Everywhere is good, home is best”. Thirdly, it was overwhelming information that the TV station does not count with his moderator service at all. “Yes, you have the right information. After Milujem Slovensko, the management of STVR decided to end the successful and audience-popular quiz Everywhere is good, at home is best. So, after years, I no longer have any programs at STVR.” he admitted in November for Nikodým, from whom all the keys to Mlynská dolina were taken from his hands.
“Of course, I’m not bashing television as such, but I don’t quite understand the decisions of the current appointed program director (Peter Begányi, editor’s note).” Martin said at the time. We were interested in how he views the unpleasant events of a few weeks ago and whether he has come to terms with the STVR’s decision.
Nicodemus is clear about that. “Such moves happen regularly in the media, it’s normal. But the truth remains that I spent 35 years in that television and maybe they didn’t even realize that they gave me up in this way.” he answered our inquiry that he is a seasoned professional and that the TV hen could have lost one of her golden eggs. “That’s true. The expressive faces also disappeared. Adela Vinczeová even expressed that they didn’t even talk to her in person, and it was only solved with me through some text messages. That’s why the end of our nice quiz was so sad and very strange. Moreover, when I still see it in reruns now, I know that we could have recorded new episodes, because the audience’s interest is still there. Everything was perfect.” he sighed to Nicodým for
After the end in Mlynská dolina, a red carpet was rolled out to Martin at Koliba. From the end of February, JOJka will start broadcasting the reborn Milujem Slovensko, which she will have under her thumb as its moderator. Adela Vinczeová and Matej Sajfa Cifra will hang on to the captain’s desks even after the record-breaking New Year’s Eve part. “I am so pleasantly surprised. The program has been given a new, second lease of life. By the fact that they closed our doors in some places and opened them to us in others – and they are also happy that we entered them – I feel as if we are starting from the very beginning.” is happy about the new collaboration with Nikodým, who also acts as a Nazi in the popular series Dunaj, at your service on Markíza.
