Broadcasts and ratings

The three shows were aired on RTS1, RTS Svet and RTS Planeta  [ sr ], as well as being streamed online via the broadcaster's website rts.rs and its official YouTube channel. [6] The final was also aired on Radio Beograd 1  [ sr ]. [24] Plans to broadcast the final of the contest on the official Eurovision Song Contest YouTube channel were dropped, presumably following technical difficulties related to the broadcaster's YouTube streams of the semi-final shows; the first semi-final stream started with a delay of a few minutes, whilst the second semi-final stream started after the first four songs.

Controversy

Following the contest, some members of the public were dissatisfied with the result, namely " Gnezdo orlovo " by Breskvica not winning the contest despite finishing first in the televoting. An online petition was started to demand a re-cast of the vote, also demanding that the public vote only decide the winner. [31]

Additionally, during the broadcast of the final of the contest, it was revealed that jury member Sajsi MC had awarded zero points to "Gnezdo orlovo", causing backlash amongst some members of the public, as well as in some media, [32] while earning praise from others. [33] Marija Šerifović and Zoran Živanović Žika also members of the jury also received threats. [34] All three of the mentioned jurors preferred the song "Ramonda" to "Gnezdo orlovo". [19] Some accused RTS and Sajsi MC of conspiring to put her on the jury for the purpose of giving Breskvica no points, with the juror allegedly receiving threats of violence [35] and death threats. [34] Dragan Brajović Braja  [ sr ] expressed his dissatisfaction by commenting that "mediocrity, an LGBT icon, a child of Other Serbia and musical irrelevance decided the outcome". [36] Pesma za Evroviziju supervisor Olivera Kovačević stated that the voting was regular and the results of the contest could not be changed. [34]

A rally was scheduled for 9 March in front of the RTS headquarters in support of Breskvica, [37] with an announcement of further protests and blockades of Belgrade's road arteries, such as Slavija Square and Gazela Bridge, if the result was not overturned and Breskvica was declared the winner. [38] Breskvica supported people's right to protest. [39] Few people were ultimately reported to have shown up. [40]

"Gnezdo orlovo" is a song by the Serbian singer Breskvica for Pesma za Evroviziju '24, the Serbian national final for the Eurovision Song Contest 2024. A Serbian folk song, it saw a significant sonic departure from Breskvica's previous artistic output. It sparked significant controversy both before, due to its seemingly nationalist lyrics, and after PZE '24, due to its second-place finish despite it winning the televote.
