France TV has brought back the popular pop culture show La Team, which originally aired on Game One, a now-closed platform. The show has been rebranded and is now under FranceTV Slash, the entertainment division of France Télévisions. After moving online via Twitch in March 2025 following Game One's closure, La Team has returned to television with a modernized format and is now available across multiple platforms, including YouTube, France.TV, and France 4. The production team, led by longtime host Julien Tellouck, aimed to keep the original spirit of La Team G1 while introducing new elements to the show.
Julien Tellouck explained that the show's return was the result of the team's shared desire to continue the series after Game One shut down. The production team had to adapt to new requirements from their new broadcaster, making changes in the control room and behind the scenes. The show's first episode on France TV Slash was well-received, with up to 7,000 viewers watching live and simultaneously on Twitch. The show is also gaining popularity on YouTube and is expected to air on France 4 in the near future.
The revival of La Team features returning personalities such as Marcus, Shyvannah, Thomas Grellier, and Julien Tellouck, as well as new additions like Shynouh. The show combines the legacy of La Team G1 with fresh faces and new content, covering topics like gaming, music, and cinema. It includes quizzes, challenges, and real-time interactions with the chat. The production team emphasized the importance of maintaining the show's family-like atmosphere, which had been a key part of the original series.
France Télévisions expressed excitement about the partnership, stating that the show fits with the network's goal of building a presence in gaming and esports. Alexandre Dureux, directeur délégué des programmes en charge des contenus grand public sur France TV, noted the desire to create a new program that builds on the original La Team DNA while introducing new contributors, a dynamic rhythm, broader themes, more interaction with the chat, and a new visual design. The show is described as a "new hybrid format" that reflects the evolving nature of television.
