Thomas Gottschal's surprising thoughts on his TV party!

The well -known television maker Thomas Gottschalk (74) has dealt intensively with his upcoming farewell to television in his new book "unfiltered", which will be released on October 16. In it he reflects on the changes in the media landscape and expresses his opinions on public television, which he believes is now out of date. "There were always ideas in history that have been done at some point. The nice idea of public television is part of it for me," writes Gottschalk.

in "unfiltered" Gottschalk expresses that he would like a big prime time show on Saturday evening for his TV. He remembers the glamorous times when such shows still had a name and stars appeared in an impressive backdrop. "If it were up to me, it would be something big in prime time on Saturday evening. After all, I stand for a time when this evening was still a certain size," he says. He misses this feeling of size in today's television landscape.

last memories of "Wetten, dass ..?"

Gottschal's review of his career also brings back the memories of the legendary programs, which he moderated for many years. So he mentions the great popularity of "Wetten, dass ..?", Which is often referred to as Europe's largest entertainment show. Nevertheless, he feels that the last edition of the show, which took place at the end of 2023, seemed rather modest compared to today's events, such as the hit parties by Florian Silbereisen. "I am already worried when Florian Silbereisen presented a big hit break in the tennis stadium in Kitzbühel, while 'Wetten, dass ..?' Almost boring," he describes his disappointment about the department of ZDF.

In retrospect, Gottschalk also discusses that new formats on television do not have the same relevance as before. While he considers the discussion about the "most popular bets" and the stars that sat on the couch, as superfluous, he regrets that the big, bragious shows have almost come out of fashion.

A look into the book

in "unfiltered: confessions of someone who cannot hold his mouth" not only goes into his own career, but also creates space for self -criticism. He questions why he often feels that he has fallen out of time and hopes to make a kind of inventory for himself and his readers through his personal insights. In addition, the message is important to him to promote serenity. On Instagram he explained in advance: "But I don't complain, but just wonder. As loud as always!"

These thoughts and reflections on his own role on television offer a fascinating insight into the thoughts of one of the most famous faces of German television. Gottschalk remains a formative figure in the old television world and modern entertainment scenes, even if it increasingly distances itself from today's formats.

The content of his new book, in particular his view of the current media landscape, is likely to stimulate readers and spectators alike. More information about Thomas Gottschalk's thoughts about his TV subscription and the background of his book can be found on Freizeit.at .
