In September 2018, after weeks of negotiations during summer, Vasili moved to Top Channel, replacing Ylli Rakipi and his show 'Të paekspozuarit' who joined Top Channel after Sokol Balla left Top Channel in January 2018.

Eni Vasili's talk-show 'Open' quickly became one of the most watched programmes in the country, as direct rival of Blendi Fevziu's talk show due to its focus on actuality topics and Top Channel's decision to be 'open to all' as the slogan of the talk-show says.
