On Saturday evening, DSDS and the ARD show "Who knows something?" delivered a bitter quota duel.

The result is clear.

The interest shown by young viewers was particularly surprising.

Cologne/Hamburg - The competition on Saturday evening (February 18) was tough.

"Deutschland sucht den Superstar" competed in the battle for viewers' favor against the XXL edition of "Who knows something?" in the first, the ZDF thriller "Munich Murder" and a best-of from "Joko & Klaas versus ProSieben". .

DSDS quotas in the basement thanks to Dieter Bohlen?

The new season of DSDS is hardly going as the people in charge at RTL imagined.

Was it really right to bring Dieter Bohlen (69) back?

The pop titan seems to have fallen out of time, not only does he mess with jury colleague Katja Krasavice (26), but he is also repeatedly criticized for his dealings with the DSDS candidates.

After the sexism scandal surrounding participant Jil Lange (22), the DSDS quotas initially fell to a record low.

More viewers tuned in again for a while, but RTL no longer gets dream ratings like they used to with DSDS.

On Saturday evening, the Cologne broadcaster even had to swallow a very bitter pill.

Because even the young viewers, who are actually more at home with private broadcasters than with public broadcasters, prefer to tune in to ARD.

Clear quota winner in the duel between DSDS and "Who knows something like that?"

The jubilee show for the 1000th episode of "Who knows for something like that?" with Kai Pflaume gathered 5.8 million viewers (23.1% of the total audience) in front of the screens, almost a million more than in the last XXL edition in January.

The reason for this should also be the top-class guests Günther Jauch, Markus Lanz, Yvonne Catterfeld, Mark Forster, Katrin Bauerfeind and Joko Winterscheidt.

“Who knows something like that?” was particularly well received by the target group of 14 to 49 year olds.

ARD had a market share of 19.2% - the highest value in the history of the show, as reported by the industry service dwdl.

With DSDS, on the other hand, it was just enough for 13.6% in the target group of young viewers.

A clear defeat for the casting show.

"Disturbing lines": RTL warns of song by candidate Raffaela

There has never been anything like this on DSDS: before Raffaela Raab's performance with her own song "Was du nicht will" the broadcaster warns viewers about the "disturbing lyrics" of her own composition.

As soon as the first tone is heard, it becomes clear that this was not exaggerated.

"I hope you end up in the chick shredder," sings the TikTok star, "There's still a spot for you in the slaughterhouse."

The jury around Dieter Bohlen and Pietro Lombardi is visibly irritated by this statement – ​​and after a few lines, the pop titan waves the performance away.

However, neither Kai Pflaume nor Dieter Bohlen were able to secure the prime time victory.

Even before DSDS and "Who knows something?" is the crime thriller "Munich Murder", which had 6.37 million viewers tuning in to ZDF.

Most recently, Dieter Bohlen messed with DSDS candidate Raffaela Raab.

The convinced vegan and the pop titan clashed violently and also delivered a good amount of beef after the show.

"If you like me, you're always welcome to come by and I'll stroke you a bit," the DSDS boss provoked the Tiktokerin.
