• The broadcaster indicates the show will be back in its Wednesday prime‑time slot on October 15.
• After a headline‑grabbing premiere, the second episode lost roughly half of its young audience, falling to 0.28 million 14–49 viewers and a 6.8% share.
• On the same night, Jan Böhmermann’s ZDF special reached 0.44 million in the 14–49 demo with a 10.8% share, and established VOX, Sat.1 and ProSieben formats also outperformed Raab.
• Recent coverage criticized a themed episode about Turkey for leaning on stereotypes, adding to questions about the show’s immediate traction on linear TV.
