Many former actors who once were part of the cast are now well known in the Netherlands and Europe, such as Katja Schuurman, Reinout Oerlemans and Antonie Kamerling.
In 2001, Oerlemans founded his own television production company, Eyeworks, with popular productions like De Bauers (real life soap about Frans Bauer and his family), So you wannabe a popstar, and Test the nation which has been exported to many countries, but was first produced in the Netherlands.

In September 2005, Oerlemans moved from the commercial broadcasting company RTL, for which he worked for fifteen years, to the public broadcasting association TROS, where he presents for a short while the TROS TV show, replacing TV show-legend Ivo Niehe.
