Stefan Raab: RTL ends Show after a quota -technology disaster!
RTL, Deutschland - The television station RTL has announced the removal of the show "You are not winning the million" with Stefan Raab. This decision, which is perceived as an insult for the former TV star, came after a continued phase of poor ratings. As the Süddeutsche Zeitung , the deduction is also regarded as a redemption in view of the dwindling viewer.
The show started promising in September 2024 and was celebrated as a "best restart of ever on RTL+". But after a solid start, interest dropped rapidly. On March 26, 2024, the first weak ratings were recorded. The FOCUS February 2024 was also broadcast in the regular RTL program. At the beginning, prominent guests such as Robert Habeck and Christian Lindner were on board, but that couldn't keep the audience.
falling the quotas
The decline in the advertising-relevant target group of 14- to 49-year-olds was particularly serious. On a Wednesday evening, the show fell into the single -digit market share area for the first time when it attracted fewer than 500,000 spectators, which corresponded to a market share of only 9.1 percent. At the start of the TV broadcast, the market share was over 15 percent. In total, around one million people followed the show, which is considered lean compared to the 5.11 million viewers of ZDFS "File number XY ... unresolved" and 1.21 million of ProSieben’s "Germany’s Next Top Model".The dismissal not only raises questions about the future of Raab, but also for the further program design of RTL. It remains to be seen how long Raab wants to try to fight against his scandalous decline. The reactions are split, with some fans regret the decision and others support the return of the television station to solid formats.
market analyzes and competition
In the middle of these developments, it becomes clear that RTL is under pressure to reposition itself in the highly competitive TV market. The strong ratings of other formats such as the ZDF format "File number XY ... unresolved", which reached 20.7 percent of the total audience, illustrate the challenges with which RTL is confronted. The decline in Raab's show could therefore not only be a personal defeat for the TV star, but also require a strategic rethink of those responsible for the transmitter.
The decision to remove "You do not win the million" is viewed by many as a necessary step in the face of the performant competition, and it is to be hoped that RTL will react to the changes accordingly.
