Die Harald Schmidt Show (1995–2004)

Best in German Late Night Comedy

[8 September 2000]

It's the best, and it'll always be. Harald Schmidt is the first one in German TV to have a Late Night Talk Show, and though there are more shows planned, I'm sure that his will stay the best one. Not without reason Schmidt is called "Dirty Harry".

This show can best be compared with "Late Night with Conan O'Brien", so if you like that show, you'll certainly also like the "Harald Schmidt Show" (nevertheless you should speak German).

Die Wochenshow (1996–2011)

Quite some fun

[15 August 2000]

One of the funniest shows in German TV. The cast mocks everyone, it's great. Although jokes in newer episodes aren't as funny as they were in older ones, this is still a must for you to watch. Don't know how the show will be without Anke Engelke, she's a great comedienne. Nonetheless I'm looking forward to the new episodes with their new cast member Annette Frier.
