“We will be reorganizing the content of the individual days of the week for the next year,” announced the station boss. Monday is all about dating, love and losing weight. Tuesday belongs to the US series, Wednesday to the shows and Thursday to the factual formats. For the weekend he put next to “Catch!” among other things new episodes of “The Voice Kids”, “Couple Wars” and “99 – One beats them all” in prospect. Rosemann also took a critical look at the almost completed broadcasting year: “With one or the other program, the orientation this year was simply far too youthful and supposedly hip. Sat.1 does not have to be as young and innovative as ProSieben. On the contrary : Reliability is much more important. “
