Dieter Bohlen is planning exciting innovations for DSDS in Hamburg!
Dieter Bohlen, who has been the face of the RTL casting show “DSDS” for 23 years, will remain active in the future of the show. Despite a decline in viewer numbers in recent years and various scandals, Bohlen wants to develop the show further. In a recent Instagram story, he announced a meeting in Hamburg to collect new ideas for improving “DSDS”. Details about the plans and possible jury members for the 22nd season have not yet been made public. However, the challenges facing the show do not seem to be an obstacle for Bohlen. He remains undeterred and loyal to the format. Schlager.de
“DSDS” has produced numerous successful artists throughout its history, including Alexander Klaws, Pietro Lombardi and Beatrice Egli. The show has thus established itself as an important part of the German music landscape. In view of the declining number of viewers, which has led to shortened broadcast times in recent years, Bohlen is striving to bring a breath of fresh air into the show.
Odds and return of Bohlen
In the recent past, Florian Silbereisen was briefly active as a juror on “DSDS”. This return of Dieter Bohlen is seen as important in increasing the show's popularity. The positive aspects of his return include the current ratings: “DSDS” recently reached 3.05 million viewers and a market share of 20.8% in the target group of 14 to 49 year olds. This represents an increase compared to last year, when the show only attracted 2.65 million viewers. These numbers represent the best target group quota since 2020. TVseries.de
While competitors such as Jungle Camp or the “Tagesschau” have strong viewer numbers, Bohlen remains optimistic about the future of “DSDS”. Silbereisen, who recently celebrated a tribute show for Jürgen Drews on the occasion of his “big farewell to hits”, achieved 5.05 million viewers with this program, which shows that interest in the German music format is still great.
Market shares in comparison
To illustrate the current capacity of the shows, here are some of the most recent ratings in comparison:
| format | Viewers | Market share (total) | Market share (14-49 years) |
|---|---|---|---|
| DSDS | 3.05 million | 20.8% | – |
| Silbereisen tribute show | 5.05 million | 20.2% | 11.2% |
| daily news | 4.84 million | 19.3% | – |
| Jungle camp | 3.96 million | 19.6% | 32.9% |
| ZDF Saturday crime drama | 6.95 million | 25.8% | – |
Given these numbers, it's clear that the battle for viewers continues. Bohlen and his team are challenged to increase enthusiasm and viewer numbers again, while at the same time reflecting on the traditions and successes of “DSDS”. The outlook for season 22 remains exciting. It remains to be seen what innovations Bohlen and his team will implement in order to keep the format successful.
