Joko & Klaas Lose Latest Round as ProSieben Pauses Show for Live Hockey

The preemption underscores how a major sports broadcast can bump a hit format from prime time.

Overview

  • In the latest episode, the duo fell at the final game and must record birthday greetings for the 100 most common German first names.
  • ProSieben will skip the show next week to air USAGermany at the Ice Hockey World Championship live from Zurich’s Swiss Life Arena, which leaves viewers without a new episode for a week.
  • The 2026 run relaunched with six weekly episodes on ProSieben, with a concurrent livestream and on‑demand viewing on Joyn.
  • Winners earn a self‑directed 15‑minute live slot in prime time the next evening, while losses trigger tasks set by the network.
  • Recent opponents included handball players Miro Schluroff and David Späth and entertainers Dennis and Benni Wolter, and regular host Steven Gätjen was absent from the latest show.
