PRO TV Shakes Up Weekend Schedule: Hulpe and Stan Take the Helm of New News Program
Just hours before Cătălin Măruță’s show concluded, PRO TV announced changes to its weekend programming, specifically outlining the future roles of Roxana Hulpe and Cosmin Stan. The announcement came during the final broadcast of “La Măruță” on February 6, 2026.
A New News Format for PRO TV Viewers
Effective February 7-8, 2026, PRO TV will introduce a new lunchtime news program airing on Saturdays and Sundays at 1:00 PM. This shift comes as “La Măruță” is replaced with two Turkish series and “Life Lessons” between 2:00 PM and 5:00 PM.
Hulpe and Stan: Double Duty for Weekend News
Roxana Hulpe and Cosmin Stan will co-anchor the new weekend news program, rotating their appearances each week. They will continue their existing roles presenting the weekend morning news program as well.
“It’s a dynamic, extremely lively journal,” Hulpe stated during “La Măruță.” “My colleagues in the newsroom, the reporters, will be in the field. We will cover all events, including the cultural scene. We have a lot of topics in that direction. We are effectively hit from all sides with information, and I believe the role of news programs is essential. More news is needed, and news you can believe in.”
Expanding Roles Reflect PRO TV’s Programming Strategy
The addition of a dedicated weekend lunchtime news program signals PRO TV’s commitment to providing consistent news coverage throughout the week. This move also leverages the existing on-screen chemistry and established audience trust of Hulpe and Stan.
The new program will focus on delivering current events, cultural coverage, and in-depth reporting, aiming to fill a gap in the weekend schedule and cater to viewers seeking reliable information.
