YMMV / Questions pour un champion

• Germans Love David Hasselhoff: Going for Gold eventually faded away from British television, but the concept remains enduringly popular in France with this show, which has aired without interruption since 1988.
• Growing the Beard : Viewers didn't react well when Julien Lepers was fired by France 3 executive Dana Hastier in 2016 and replaced by Samuel Étienne, and audiences plummeted as a result. Samuel Étienne himself admitted being "pretty bad at the job" initially, though over the years he mellowed up, becoming more popular with viewers, and audiences surged again.
• Memetic Mutation:
  • Julien Lepers's "Je suis, je suis, je suis..." ("I am, I am, I am...") at the end of the Head to Head questions if contestants haven't correctly answered yet.
  • The resemblance of Lepers to Michael Keaton went memetic for a time.
