RTL Moves 'Die Stefan Raab Show' to Twice-Weekly Late Night Starting Feb. 10

The shift responds to weak primetime ratings, with Dschungelcamp late-night specials outperforming.

Overview

  • From Feb. 10, the show airs Tuesdays at 22:00 exclusively on RTL+ and Thursdays at 23:15 on RTL with simultaneous streaming on RTL+.
  • RTL cites stronger late-night results, including about 1.08 million viewers and roughly 19.1% in the 14–49 group for Raab’s Dschungelcamp special, versus recent primetime lows reported near 0.57 million.
  • The Wednesday 20:15 slot will be filled with new Stern TV Reportage episodes on Familie Ritter, and Stern TV returns to its traditional 22:15 start time.
  • RTL expands the Raab partnership with spring Saturday primetime shows, including a new quiz, Wer weiß wie wann was war?, co-hosted with Barbara Schöneberger, and a fresh edition of Stefan und Bully gegen irgendson Schnulli.
  • An archive of Raab’s catalog, including TV total and major event shows, will roll out on RTL+ and YouTube, while his recent Dschungelcamp commentary has drawn social-media criticism for bodyshaming.
