Veteran Czech and Slovak TV personalities exit

Overview

In March 2026 veteran Czech news anchor Barbora Kroužková left Česká televize after more than two decades, citing a re‑organisation that moved her from the flagship news slot to new programmes and describing online harassment. Her departure was part of a broader turnover that also saw other long‑standing ČT figures exit.

A week later, the trend extended to other regions of the Czech‑Slovak media market. Slovak presenter Lenka Šóošová announced she was leaving TV Ráno after a 21‑year run to pursue socially‑focused projects, while Czech actress Tereza Bebarová disclosed that her long‑running role in the daily series Ulice had been terminated without prior notice. Both reflections highlighted the challenges veteran television personalities face when flagship programmes are reshaped or characters are retired.

Together, the reports illustrate a pattern of longstanding broadcasters and actors parting ways with major Czech and Slovak networks amid organisational changes and shifting programming strategies.
