Overview
- The new episode of Schlager‑Spaß aired on SWR on October 24 while MDR replaced the slot with a Goldene Henne repeat and rescheduled the Borg episode for November 21, creating viewer confusion.
- Andy Borg posted on Instagram the same morning that the show would air on both SWR and MDR, a message that suggested he had not been told about MDR’s schedule change.
- Borg said he has no plans to retire and will continue as long as he enjoys performing and connecting with audiences, and he will mark the 250th live 'Schlager & Spaß' show on his December tour.
- Production of Schlager‑Spaß will move from the SWR studio in Baden‑Baden to Mahlberg in Ortenaukreis starting in 2027, a logistical shift Borg says will keep the program’s music and warm atmosphere intact.
- Episodes continue to produce lively on‑air moments — for example, the duo Fantasy pressed to one day co‑host during the October 24 show — and broadcasters warn that continuation depends on viewer support and what the network can afford.
