After the death of actor and pop singer Willi Herren, Sat.1 will not show the remaining episodes of the reality show "Promis unter Palmen".
The private broadcaster announced: "We will try to find a worthy conclusion," it said.
"Our thoughts are with his family and friends." Willi Herren was seen in a variety of reality formats - most recently as a candidate for the Sat.1 show.
On Tuesday it became known that the 45-year-old was found dead in his apartment in Cologne's Mülheim district.
Investigations into the circumstances of death are ongoing.
Herren leaves a son and a daughter.
Sat.1 had already come under fire at the start of the show and removed the first episode from the media library.
The reason was homophobic statements by another candidate.
