This VPRO's ‘summer classic’ is based on an equally simple and refreshing idea that originated in 1988: When during the summer most of the channels are showing reruns, ask interesting people people to curate their ‘favorite television evening’ and let them clarify the fragments in a long-form interview/conversation.
The programme was first aired in 1988. Each episode takes up an entire Sunday evening, lasting typically three hours.

Guests include writers, scientists, television personalities, politicians or business people.
