Sunday Switch Drags 'Let's Dance' to Record Low

The slump highlights how forced schedule changes can push viewers to rival shows.

Overview

  • RTL’s Let’s Dance, moved to Sunday after Germany’s Friday friendly against Switzerland, drew 2.60 million viewers and a 16.6% share among ages 14–49, the weakest regular-episode reach reported by DWDL.de.
  • ProSieben’s quiz Wer stiehlt mir die Show? led the key 14–49 demo with 18.2% and about 790,000 viewers, outpacing RTL’s dance show despite lower total reach.
  • ARD’s crime drama Polizeiruf 110: Goldraub dominated overall with about 7.64 million viewers and a 30.2% market share, according to Quotenmeter.
  • Vox’s Grill den Henssler posted its lowest audience on record at 810,000 viewers and a 4.1% share in 14–49, showing how the crowded Sunday lineup split viewers.
  • No live Let’s Dance airs on Good Friday because state ‘silent day’ rules bar dance events, so RTL will run a best-of special before the live shows return after Easter, following several weeks of ratings decline.
