Overview

  • Möhring premiered as team captain in an XXL primetime edition on October 11, stepping into the role long held by Elton.
  • The broadcast reached 4.29 million viewers for a 21.1% share overall and won primetime among 14–49-year-olds with 14.4%, according to AGF data reported by DWDL.
  • Despite the strong start, ZDF’s ‘Friesland’ led total viewership with 5.83 million and a 26% share in the same slot.
  • Instagram comments skewed negative, with some calling the casting a misfit and complaining about audibility, though other viewers urged giving Möhring time to settle in.
  • The debut featured a notable misstep when Möhring locked in the wrong option after signaling another answer, drawing an on-air reminder from host Kai Pflaume about captain responsibilities.
