TV presenter Jörg Pilawa comes to Sat.1.
The private broadcaster confirmed the change of the 56-year-old on Monday.
Pilawa is supposed to moderate the new program »Quiz für Dich« there, among other things.
Celebrities compete against each other in two teams and earn money for a person in need who knows nothing about his or her luck.

After more than 20 years: Jörg Pilawa is leaving ARD
The Norddeutsche Rundfunk announced the departure of the popular quiz master last Thursday.
Pilawa said of his motives for switching to Sat.1, he wanted to leave his "comfort zone" and would like to do a wide variety of programs again.
There is already a list of ideas, said station director Daniel Rosemann.
One does not want to make a sharp distinction between information and entertainment.
The "Bild" newspaper reported last week about Pilawa's new employer, but Sat.1 initially did not confirm the personnel.
»Quiz für Dich« comes from the company Talpa Concepts of the TV producer John de Mol. In Holland the original »Deze quiz is voor jou« is moderated by his sister Linda de Mol.
