ProSieben Pulls 'Die Abrechnung' From Primetime After Ratings Slump

The network redirects the format to post‑1 a.m. slots to prioritize films after a steep week‑two drop.

Overview

  • Week two drew about 420,000 viewers and a 3.5% share in the 14–49 demo, marking a sharp decline from the premiere, according to AGF data cited by trade outlets.
  • Starting next week, ProSieben replaces the Thursday slot with films, airing The Fifth Element at 20:15 and Alita: Battle Angel later in the evening.
  • 'Die Abrechnung' moves to 1:15 a.m., and the follow‑on show Das große Promi‑Büßen shifts to between 3:45 and 5:15 a.m. after posting just 1.7% in the target group with around 260,000 viewers.
  • RTLzwei’s Love Island VIP outperformed the ProSieben shows that night, rising to 6.4% in 14–49 and reaching roughly 450,000 viewers.
  • All five produced episodes remain available on Joyn and will be replayed overnight, with the series produced by Banijay and built around eight celebrity duos competing for up to €50,000.
