M6 Drops Daily Soap 'Nouveau Jour,' Shifts New Episodes to M6+

The channel cites eroding ratings alongside limited space for daily serials on its linear schedule.

Overview

  • Effective September 23, the series leaves the airwaves, with remaining episodes released exclusively on M6+ and in early access for M6+ Max subscribers.
  • Season 1 will keep filming in the Montpellier area until October 26 to deliver a closed ending for viewers.
  • Ratings slid from about 1.53 million viewers at launch (8.6% share) to roughly 864,000 on average (5.4%), with some later episodes drawing near 283,000.
  • Initially scheduled around 20:30, the program was moved to 13:30 in late August in a bid to bolster digital viewing.
  • M6 thanked the cast and crews and highlighted positive reviews despite weak linear traction, with the daytime slot now filled by Scènes de ménages and Un Jour, un doc.
