Scotti's show beats Rai; Rai underestimated it

Gerry Scotti's "La Ruota della Fortuna" achieved massive success, drawing nearly four million viewers and a 26.19% share, surpassing Rai's flagship news program. The show's strong performance is attributed to Canale 5's belief in summer programming, while Scotti criticized Rai's counter-programming strategy, suggesting they underestimated his show and relied too heavily on "Techetechete." Scotti also commented on Stefano De Martino, his potential competitor, advising him not to overreach in comparisons to television legends, while acknowledging his talent and youth.
