His return to television after a year’s absence was not triumphant. On the contrary, Nikos Moutsinas has received harsh criticism from many different sides. Invited to Grigoris Arnautoglou’s show “The 2 Night Show” in his first big interview, the presenter spoke openly about everything.

“I had a bit of a hard time with my health and was hospitalized in September. “From an unrelated thrombosis that we didn’t know from where and when, and I stayed in the hospital for ten days,” said Nikos Moutsinas at first and continued:

“At first I got a lot of anxiety because we didn’t know what it came from and if I do something and cause it. The doctor told me that as long as you take the anti-coagulant pills – she wants up to 6 months to complete – it is impossible to get a thrombosis, I don’t know what else you will get. A fear left me, because at first I didn’t even drink water.”

-Your health is good, you are very handsome. Relationship in your life?

“Single. It’s been a long time since I’ve been alone. It’s a hoax… I think that now in the system he needed to experience freedom and I think now I don’t know how to put freedom in a relationship condition because the relationships he had didn’t include freedom. And I always talk about me. I still don’t feel like I can do it”

-Are you possessive, are you jealous?

“It’s the way you always learn from family about what love is. I can bring you flowers because I think that’s love and you want me to be over you and take care of you if you catch a cold.”

-A year away from TV…

“Magic”

-Why did you come back?

“Because I work. This is what I do for a living”

-Are you worried about how you will return, if you will find a job?

“No. Not out of arrogance, out of very personal work with myself. I had that faith. I wanted to enjoy this one year, not feel lazy. Because I suffered a lot in the last few years with this difficult current situation that was so black. I had nothing else to give. So it was magical. I sat for another year and two”

-Why is it like they were waiting for Nikos in the corner?

“Look Grigoris, no matter how it sounds I don’t care. I make TV for the people on the sofa and not for the other shows. Shut up, it’s a TV show. Let the system be quiet. I don’t care, not disparagingly. I’m interested in feeling good”

– Have things that were said passed on to you?

“They told me they said it was horrible what I came out with. It was an exaggeration. It was a premiere with a new production, on a new channel, after a month of delays. Now this should not concern the other in his house at all. He too was waiting to see the premiere, he had his problems and he was waiting to see something to cheer him up. This explanation concerns colleagues who know very well what is going on. Don’t fool around, let’s focus.

I’m generally not crazy about being played on TV and I don’t give many interviews. Not out of style and arrogance, I don’t want to. I don’t care about being played. I would ask them not to play me, like I don’t exist, I’m ok. There is no need for publicity. I play and we joke, joke and laugh.

I’m not pointing a finger at what you did and shut down your shows because if all of a sudden half the TV starts cursing a product, you don’t know how the channel will react. They might be saying hey… did we make a mistake? What’s going on? You don’t know if he goes and demands responsibility from the editor-in-chief and says what show is the one you’re setting up? This is arrogance, that because I have TV time I can say whatever comes to mind.

Say I didn’t like it obviously, you don’t have to and you can’t please everyone. With that I am reconciled. Don’t open up too much. Go do the same and let me know what you think.
If you haven’t been through this position to do what I do and it has a difficulty – it doesn’t seem to me why I like it – don’t open your mouth so easily. By obsessing you lose your right. I said that I want to do Good Morning in the evening and fewer days. I never said it would be different.”
