Overview

  • ARD confirms that from October 13 through year-end, 'Gefragt – Gejagt' will air at 17:10, followed by 'Wer weiß denn sowas?' at 18:00.
  • The magazine 'Brisant' moves to 16:10, and outlets note a prior short test of that slot led to a sharp drop in reach.
  • Host Alexander Bommes calls the new lineup a "win‑win," and ARD Vorabend chief Christoph Schmidt says the earlier start adds episodes of 'Gefragt – Gejagt'.
  • Season 10 of 'Gefragt – Gejagt' has drawn about a 17.1% market share, with the 18:00 slot remaining in place for new episodes until October 10.
  • At 'Wer weiß denn sowas?' a successor to departing team captain Elton has not been announced, as coverage also highlights the show's 900th episode and a Hobiger Instagram anecdote.
