so if you start watching them, don't start with the recent ones. ;)
This still with the very popular cast. Now that Bieke and Marc are married, we expect to have much more hilarious episode's.
For everyone that can view F.C. De Kampioenen, do it. It's the best Flemish sitcom ever!
If you need more information about FC De Kampioenen look around on IMDb and you will find all the information that you need.
F.C. De Kampioenen = quality time for young and old! With everykind of emotions: fun, anger, happiness, romantic,..
It deals about an amateur soccer team with the emphasis "amateur". Every storyline deals with the same subject: some misunderstanding that takes ridiculous (and predictable) proportions, to get resolved in the end.
The show's been running for over 15 years now, and the production probably decided not to change a winning team. Which means that the show has had minor changes over the course of years (besides a couple of actors getting replaced (they nearly all left by themselves rather than being thrown of the show)). The humor hasn't changed a bit over the years and it was already outdated when it first aired in the first place.
I guess you have to be Flemish to get this, and over 60 years old, to enjoy such an old fashioned TV show as this.
It is not for nothing the longest (in years) comedy sitcom in Belgium!
Everyone knows the persons 'DDT', 'Markske', etc...
On the TV1-Day in Boom, F.C. De Kampioenen were the main attraction of the crowd, they got the most attention.
Marc Scheers (Ex Producer F.C. De Kampioenen, he died in May 2004) Quote1: Kampioenen anno 2003... in spite of who it envies... de kampioenen aren't finished yet.
Quote2: And must the question come how long de kampioenen still will continue, you also don't ask if there will be a news broadcast next year.

- Trivia"Het Kampioenenlied", the show's first theme song, has a short version used in-series only and has a full length version of three minutes long with the characters singing as well. The song clearly samples the Libyan national anthem "Libya, Libya, Libya" and bears similarities with the 1990 song "Mondiale", released by Italo-Belgian singer-songwriter Rocco Granata on the occasion of the FIFA World Cup in Italy. The full length version was released as LP through Dutch label Philips Records.
- GoofsDimitri is 58 years old in DDT ontsnapt (2010) whereas he was 40 years old in Blauwhelmen (1995). The time gap, however, is 15 years, so in 2010 he must be 55 years old or 43 years old in 1995 for 2010 to have his age correct.

Dimitri De Tremmerie: Zal 't gaan, ja!
[repeated line, Dimitri's comment on eg. De Kampioenen kicking a soccer ball through one of his dealership's windows; along the lines of saying *Mind your language*, *Watch your tongue*, *Take it easy, a'ight?* and shouting *Are you out of your mind!*, the line is actually a combo of these situations, so depending on the context in which the line is uttered]
- Crazy credits"THE ORIGINALS" message appears in a framework at the start of each intro with theme song from De nieuwe truitjes (1990) to Love Story (1993), to honor the titles with Carry Goossens in the lead and Walter Michiels co-starring.
