The iconic French television game show "Intervilles," originally created by General de Gaulle and Guy Lux, returned to France 2 on July 3, 2025, after a 12-year hiatus. The revived edition features a refreshed format that maintains the show's original spirit but notably excludes the traditional use of cows, a hallmark of the earlier versions. The inaugural episode aired live from Beauvais, pitting the host city against Coulanges-lès-Nevers, with Coulanges-lès-Nevers emerging victorious. Subsequent episodes continued the competition in different locations, including a match where Gap defeated Bourgoin-Jallieu. The show is hosted by Nagui, who has been praised for his role in the revival. The return of "Intervilles" has sparked nostalgic reactions, particularly regarding the absence of the cows, with viewers expressing concern over the fate of Topa, a famous cow from the show. The competition remains popular among participants and audiences, with cities like Saint-Amand-les-Eaux aiming to defend their titles and achieve multiple wins. "Intervilles" airs on France 2 and is positioned as a summer entertainment staple, continuing its legacy in French television culture.
