The show ran for about 190 minutes. Ruquier started by a monologue that lasts for about 20 minutes; he presented the past week's news with humor. He also presents some of the week's best cartoons before turning to his columnists for comments. The five guests (mainly actors, singers, writers) then talk about their projects and interact with the columnists. A personality (often a politician, philosopher, union leader) was then interviewed by Ruquier and his columnists for about an hour.
