Low 14–49 audience shares triggered the move, signaling a primetime reset toward factual programming.

Im zukünftigen Programm des Senders wartet auf die Zuschauer eine große Veränderung.

Overview

  • The broadcaster is removing both formats from its Monday evening schedule with immediate effect starting next week.
  • The vacated slots will run documentary reruns, beginning with 'Deutschland bei Nacht – Schuften statt schlafen' at 20:15 followed by 'Hartes Deutschland'.
  • Recent episodes posted steep declines in the key demo, with 'Genial daneben' at 3.3% and 2.9% and 'Dinge gibt's...' at 2.4% and 1.6% market share among 14–49-year-olds.
  • 'Dinge gibt's...' has unaired episodes whose broadcast status is now unclear, while 'Genial daneben' had largely been airing repeats.
  • Industry outlets have linked the weak results to the competitive Monday slot against VOX, and 'Deutschland bei Nacht' is scheduled to switch to new episodes on September 29.
