Sat.1 is rebuilding its evening program once again.
In the future, the station will focus more on a crime fiction format.
The victim is a quiz show.
Munich - Sat.1 does not come to rest when planning the evening program.
Driven by poor audience ratings, the private broadcaster keeps tinkering with the broadcast schedule.
Especially in the quiz show slot between 6 p.m. and 7 p.m. there was and is movement.
Sat.1 rebuilds the evening program - the quiz show dose is halved
And Sat.1 had tried a lot.
In October 2020, the station brought the quiz show “Letters Battle” on TV.
Since then, two candidates with prominent support have been fighting for the maximum price of 10,000 euros in the show hosted by Ruth Moschner.
In between, they tried other quiz formats, for example with Steven Gätjen and “5 Gold Rings” or Amiaz Habtus “Let the music play - The Hit Quiz”.
But success did not come.
At the end of March 2021, Sat.1 deleted “5 Gold Rings” from the program, “Let the music play” has not been shown since October 1st.
Instead there was a double load of “letters battle”.
Moschner was on duty from 6 p.m. to the news at 7:55 p.m. during the week.
"K11 - The New Cases" replaces the Sat.1 quiz show "Letters Battle" in the evening
That's enough of that. From January 10th, only one episode of “Letters Battle” will be shown on Sat.1 at 7:00 p.m.,

. The renewed restructuring is due to the lack of public interest. In terms of market share, Moschner's quiz show is bobbing around the three percent mark. Therefore, the second episode moves to the morning program. From ten o'clock there will be a repetition of “Letters Battle” from Monday to Friday.
Instead, a crime series moves into the evening program.
From “K11 - The New Cases”, which Sat.1 brings a five to seven percent market share, there will be a double dose from January 10th from 6pm.
Before that, a double episode of “Die Gemeinschaftspraxis” will be broadcast from 5pm.
Most recently, VOX had given up puzzles with a short-term program change for prime time.
