At the weekend, Beatrice Egli could be seen with her hit show in the third programs, not like recently in the first. The change of channel had consequences.
Beatrice Egli has been hosting her own show since 2022. The format was so well received by the audience that the show was shown on ARD for the first time last year. From then on, the pop singer welcomed well-known stars such as Howard Carpendale, Maite Kelly and Sasha at prime time on Saturday evening. The last edition was watched by more than three million viewers.
That’s why many fans were happy when it was announced that a new episode of the “Beatrice Egli Show” would be shown on television on April 6th – but not like the last one on the first. There are no free slots available on Erste, explained SWR program director Clemens Bratzler at “dwdl.de”. Therefore, the show was moved to the program of NDR, MDR and SWR – with consequences for the ratings.
Two million viewers less
The new and fifth edition of the “Beatrice Egli Show” ran on Saturday. With Semino Rossi, Ben Zucker and Marianne Rosenberg, the musician once again brought together top-class guests on her stage – but there was no great ratings success. As NDR reports, 224,000 viewers tuned in to the hit format on Saturday, while 239,000 on MDR were interested in the show. Things went best at SWR: Beatrice Egli attracted a total of 296,000 people to their screens.
Adding these values together, almost 800,000 viewers watched the “Beatrice Egli Show” this time – around two million fewer than the last edition of the hit format. The ratings for Swiss television SRF are not included in these viewing figures, where the program was also shown on Saturday.
In any case, Beatrice Egli’s show didn’t even make it into the top 25 most-watched programs on German television. However, it remains unclear whether the decline in viewers was solely caused by the new program slot. Because the singer competed against strong competition. While on RTL the show “Because they don’t know what’s happening!” The new season of “The Masked Singer” started on ProSieben. According to “dwdl.de”, the day’s victory among the overall audience aged three and over went to the first with “Lost in Fuseta”: 4.75 million people chose the crime thriller at prime time.
The new edition of her hit spectacle was at least well received by Beatrice Egli’s fans. “It was really great. Such great personalities, strong songs and Beatrice led the show really well”, “It was a great show with lots of new artists that you don’t see so often” and “The whole show was simply brilliant “, the host received praise on her Instagram channel.
