Big comedy sketch show on German television
The comedy sketch show “RTL Saturday Night” attracted millions of viewers from November 1993 to May 1998. The regular cast and the team received many awards for their work – including the Bambi, the Bavarian TV Prize and the Grimme Prize.
The comedy spectacle was produced by Jacky Dreksler (76) and former “Tutti Frutti” star Hugo Egon Balder. The latter jokes in the new press release: “Purely hypothetical, if now ‘Tutti Frutti’ or ‘Everything Nothing Or ?!’ should come back, RTL definitely played through the 90s.”
