The TV producers watched the ratings for their programs with excitement on Thursday: ZDF and Johannes B. Kerner competed against Jörg Pilawa on Sat.1 at 8:15 p.m.
Mainz – After moving from the ARD to the private broadcaster Sat.1, the new quiz show with moderator Jörg Pilawa (57) flickered on the TV screens at 8:15 p.m. on Wednesday evening.
At the same time, colleague Johannes B. Kerner (58) also quizzed on “You never figure it out!” on ZDF.
This is how the new Sat.1 show "Das 1% Quiz" with Jörg Pilawa works
The concept of the new show "The 1% Quiz" is easy to understand: 100 candidates have to answer questions, the level of difficulty of which is measured by what percentage they can presumably answer.
A cross-section of the population is asked the questions before the show, so it can be said that 90 percent of Germans are correct on the first question, but only one percent on the last.

Anyone who answers the question incorrectly will be kicked out of the Sat.1 show.
The debut for the Hamburg moderator, who resigned from ARD after 20 years, went well.
On average, 1.47 million people watched Sat.1, as reported by dwdl.de.
"Among the 14- to 49-year-olds, the market share was 7.5 percent, in the target group 14-49, which Sat.1 considers its "relevant target group", 7.4 percent was achieved," says dwdl. en.
Narrow winner in the giant duel between Pilawa and Kerner
Even more exciting than the audience ratings for the new Pilawa show was the giant duel with the ZDF quiz show "You never come up with it", which also ran on TV on Wednesday evening at 8:15 p.m. In the "relevant target group" of 14 to 49 year olds, which is most important for advertisers, Johannes B. Kerner was behind his colleague Pilawa. Only 0.34 million people tuned in to ZDF, while Sat.1 had 0.42 million, a little more.
The overall winner on Wednesday (March 15, 2023) was the Tagesschau at 8:15 p.m.
4.66 million viewers tuned in.
Since 1952, the "Tagesschau" has been providing information about world events every day.
But behind the scenes of the serious news show, things can get haywire, as Judith Rakers revealed on Riverboat.
