Overview
- RTL has confirmed it will cancel Unter uns with a final episode scheduled for March 2027 and has thanked cast, crew and viewers for more than three decades of the series.
- The network attributed the decision to changed economic conditions for daily fictional programs and to evolving viewer use of linear TV versus streaming.
- Cast members and longtime fans reacted with shock and sadness, launched a public campaign using the hashtag #nichtohneunteruns and started a petition to try to save the series.
- UFA, the show's producer, said it will carefully examine possible ways to continue the Schillerallee story, leaving open options such as a new platform, format or partner.
- Production and distribution are continuing during the dispute, with new episodes airing weekdays on RTL and appearing earlier on RTL+ while media previews keep audience engagement active.
