“Wetten, dass ..?” (ZDF): Thomas Gottschalk celebrated for anniversary broadcast on Twitter
On the occasion of the 40th birthday of “Wetten, dass ..?” ZDF revived the cult show on Saturday (November 6th) - and with great success. Almost 14 million saw the anniversary show, which gave “Wetten, dass ..?” A rate of 50.2 percent in the target group of 14-49 year olds. Numbers that are unparalleled on German television - and which may now make the Mainz broadcaster consider not to completely dispose of “Wetten, dass ..?” After all.
Part of the big “Wetten, dass ..?” Success, too: Thomas Gottschalk.
The TV veteran was criticized after the broadcast on the net for some slogans from the time, but mainly celebrated: "Gottschalk The Best", "Thank you, Thomas" or "Gottschalk is King" was in abundance on Twitter, one way or another to read (read more articles about celebrities & TV * on RUHR24).
