New “Bergretter” season attracts millions of viewers – does the ZDF series even surpass “Der Bergdoktor”?

As reported by

dwdl.de

, a whopping 5.74 million watched the season opener of the family series set against a picturesque mountain backdrop.

ZDF thus had a strong 21 percent market share on Thursday evening (March 2nd) -

a value that even surpassed the popular "Croatia Crime" in the first (5.44 million viewers).

For "Die Bergretter" things could go uphill in terms of quota in the future - and so steeply that you could even surpass "Bergdoktor", who recently disappointed by his standards.

Curious: “Bergretter” darling has the same name as the mountain doctor

In 38 episodes, Andreas Marthaler (Martin Gruber, 52) led the “Bergretter” team until he fell to his death under dramatic circumstances in episode 6 of the sixth season (“Cut off”).

Especially attentive ZDF viewers should have noticed: The former "Bergretter" main actor has a prominent namesake.

The mountain doctor embodied by Hans Sigl (53) in the series of the same name is also called Martin Gruber.

"Bergretter" also popular with young audiences - only GNTM beats the ZDF series in the target group

A key factor in the emerging “Bergretter” success is the young viewership: the ZDF series is apparently very popular with 14 to 49 year olds (market share of 10.4 percent), only “Germany's Next Top Model” was able to score even better with the target group.
