"Groland" will end in December after thirty-four years of satirical humor on Canal+

Canal+ announced the end of the satirical show "Groland" on December 12, concluding 34 years of broadcasting. The show's creators decided it was time to end this unique venture, according to Jean-Marc Juramie, Canal+’s deputy general director. "Groland" has been a significant part of Canal+’s history, known for its provocative humor and parodying current events from a fictional country. Initially aired in 1992, it evolved over the years but maintained its core concept. The show has seen the loss of key figures, including its iconic president Christophe Salengro in 2018. The program was seen as a representation of Canal's spirit from the 1980s and 1990s, with its creators reflecting on its cultural impact.
