At “Always again on Sundays” with host Stefan Mross there was a serenade for the victims of the flood disaster.
But the action hits powerfully with the TV audience.
Rust - Normally the ARD hit show "Immer wieder Sundays" provides entertainment and a good atmosphere for its viewers.
Nevertheless, the storm catastrophe prevailing in parts of Germany was not simply ignored there last weekend.
Right at the beginning of the program, host Stefan Mross made the flood an issue.
As a special sign of solidarity, several performers then sang a song for the victims and those affected.
However, this gesture did not go down well with the audience.
Some of the viewers reacted completely angry.
Stefan Mross: Schlager star causes trouble with fans with a flood song
“Usually we start our program 'Every Sunday' very differently. (...) But we are like you: We saw very, very bad pictures and many of them have experienced bad things, ”Mross began his introduction on Sunday (July 18th). He wanted to express his sympathy and solidarity for all citizens affected by the flood in Germany and Austria and therefore had prepared a special campaign with his team. “You are not out there alone. 'Always on Sundays' starts right away as usual, but we want to show you that we are with you and that we are now thinking of you very, very firmly. "
As a sign, Mross then sang together with other Schlager interpreters, including his wife Anna-Carina, with whom he recently shared a bad moment of shock, the song "Hand in Hand".
This was dedicated to the victims of the flood disaster.
After the serenade was over, some of the audience even gave a standing ovation.
But instead of falling into sadness, Mross went straight to the usual agenda and greeted the audience in the usual exuberant Schlager show tone.
A moment that apparently irritated the audience in front of the screens and sometimes caused astonishment.

"With the song for the flood victims, the topic is ticked off and you can go back to the ideal world of hit", mocked a user on Twitter. “Now one more song about the disaster. How weird is that, ”wrote another viewer. “This song helps people too ... I think they have more important concerns. Embarrassing, ”remarked another. The next one referred to it as a “song from hell” and asked himself: “Aren't people suffering enough?” Another viewer shared a better suggestion on how the Schlager community could express their solidarity: “Oh, wonderful. The Schlager do-gooders are back at the start. Perfect world. Save yourself the song and just donate without hanging it on the big bell. "
Another user was not as strict as his predecessors: "Oh, 'Always on Sundays' doesn't start as 'gaudy' as usual, great action, this appeal for donations right at the beginning," and then added: "Well, This 'We are the World' copy is not far-fetched (music project from 1985 by Michael Jackson, with which money was collected for victims of the famine,

), but still: a sign. ”But most of them took Stefan Mross does not give up his sympathy: "Nice sign, but it would be more believable if the Mross came across as authentically affected and his lady of the heart didn't have to sing herself in the foreground." (
