00:00Welcome to TopTenTV. Today with the 10 funniest comedy shows you've heard.
00:24Here is Steven Geertje.
00:26Hello. Thank you very much. Thank you very much.
00:30Welcome to TopTenTV.
00:39Thank you.
00:43Thank you very much. Thank you very much.
00:48Today our topic is the 10 funniest comedy shows.
00:52And you, the cable 1 viewers, have decided by internet voting, who will be on our still empty table on the places 10 to 1.
01:02And found, my two guests of this evening have the studio as well and I am very happy that they are there.
01:09The one has two addresses, the Lindenstrasse and the Schillerstrasse.
01:15And the second has made it from the half stupid to the clever professor.
01:21Welcome, here are Georg Uecker and Wiegald Bohne.
01:24Wiegald and Georg, the topic today is the funniest comedy shows. Maybe we should first explain, what do you like to laugh about?
01:54I laugh about things, which are not so mainstream humor.
01:59Which are unsuitable, which sometimes go too far, this can be derp, this can be political, this can be completely unpolitical.
02:05But I say humor, which does not come from the regular table corner, which is not so mass compatible, but is a bit more unusual and comes from the edge.
02:13Often this is also humor of minorities and it may hurt.
02:16It may hurt?
02:17It may hurt.
02:18With you, Wiegald also?
02:19I prefer still the involuntary humor.
02:21So always when it is not about a comedy show on TV, but let's say about a TV station like Phoenix.
02:27There I can amuse myself deliciously, when I can watch press conferences from the German beverage manufacturer association for several hours.
02:33There I can amuse myself personally very much.
02:36And among the comedy stars, if I want to pick out anyone, Helge Schneider has a special appreciation,
02:41because he has prepared the comedy wave of the 90s.
02:45But as a TV star, he certainly did not stand out so much.
02:48That's why it's good, that he is not here today.
02:50What a long sentence.
02:51But a very nice sentence.
02:52And you mentioned one thing, which is very important, the television.
02:55Because we start the countdown with a troupe, which takes apart what we all like to see.
03:01The television, here is your place C.
03:06If we just imagine, Jesus would have been drowned.
03:10Would there be an aquarium in every church?
03:15Switch, this show slaughters a holy cow.
03:18Because here the television is parodied.
03:21And that 71 times between 1997 and 2000.
03:30Facts, facts, facts. Our topic today, big questions of humanity.
03:34Mr. Kessler, what did you research?
03:36Is there a life after death?
03:38And is there really a God?
03:40Hoecker, your question please.
03:42Why is rain wet?
03:44Hoecker, you are out.
03:45Why is that?
03:47For me, Switch was great, because I like to sip passionately.
03:51And I did not have to do that on this show.
03:53My thumbs could relax, I did not have to switch over.
03:55And I just had to laugh really hard.
03:58Even before the serious reporting of the daily topics, Switch has no respect.
04:03Our next topic, the cruel misfortune of Newcastle.
04:07Ewald, is there at least a sign of life now?
04:11They are smoking over there.
04:13For heaven's sake, don't you want to alarm the rescue troops?
04:16Very, very entertaining.
04:18Those are the Beatles, Ulrich, the Beatles.
04:22I need somebody.
04:24Just anybody.
04:26You know, I need somebody.
04:32Antonio Rados in Porada Ninfo.
04:34Yesterday, the UN finally approved the Blue Helmet operation demanded by the orthodox half-cribs.
04:41How is the reaction on site?
04:46When colleagues were dragged through the cocoa, I could watch it over and over again.
04:51Next to me is the German Oberst Peter Patziak, Herr Patziak.
04:55How can the Blue Helmets bring the expansionist hardliners of the Zerbettel Assortment to the raison
04:59without escalating the escalation?
05:04I see nothing.
05:06You see nothing.
05:08Because I brought you nothing today.
05:11You only need to order nothing.
05:13And if you feel like having nothing again, no problem.
05:17Then you have nothing at home.
05:19Wow, finally time for nothing.
05:27In tenth place at Top Ten TV, the show Switch.
05:32We just saw a few examples and you already said it.
05:35It's actually involuntary comedy is what you find funny now.
05:39It's on TV at home.
05:41But what does it deserve, in your opinion, to be spoiled on shows?
05:46We just saw a few examples.
05:48Is there anything you say has to be dragged through the cocoa?
05:51Yes, everything that is particularly wooden offers great possibilities to smash the wood,
05:58which is not elastic, but rather brittle.
06:01If you try to show something that you are not,
06:04like when bagatelles are blown up,
06:06for example, of course, home shopping is a pure comedy show.
06:10That's hard to fool.
06:11If you watch home shopping at night,
06:13you come home a little drunk,
06:15zip through the program and then see the doll seller,
06:18who sits there at night, milling dolls and addresses them by name.
06:21Then you ask yourself, this woman is not with you.
06:23She's lonely.
06:24That's just very nice.
06:26If they sell that seriously,
06:28it's hard to fool, although it deserves it.
06:30Because that's already so funny in itself.
06:32But they just want to be more.
06:34They exaggerate themselves and they are completely free of irony.
06:37And that is always grateful for comedy, of course.
06:39But why isn't there, for example, a show like Switch anymore?
06:43It has also persevered and blossomed the television.
06:46And you're just talking about the involuntary comedy.
06:49But why isn't there anything that shows the serious side?
06:52No, they were pioneers.
06:53I think they found many successors.
06:55For example, Friday Night News at RTL,
06:57which is a nice show.
06:58I think that also has profound reasons.
07:00Bernhard Hoecker is now with Genial daneben, for example.
07:04Maybe he doesn't feel like it anymore.
07:06That's the background.
07:07I think that you also deal with television,
07:09like with Kalkofe's Matschaber and many other shows,
07:12which may still play a role here.
07:14That will continue to be a topic.
07:16And how good Switch was, you can see now,
07:18because it has been repeated for years.
07:20I think there is now the 8th or 9th repetition.
07:22I only discovered it later.
07:23The first time it somehow passed me.
07:25When I turn on the television, Switch comes up again and again.
07:27And I see how good they really are.
07:29And that's just the way it is.
07:30They were unique.
07:31And then a lot of others come and say,
07:32we want to do that too.
07:33And then they are no longer unique.
07:35Then it is one of many.
07:36They were the first.
07:37But then they might say at some point,
07:38now it's good too.
07:39Television offers enough material to make fun of it.
07:42But that's basically the same with many comedy shows.
07:45Yes, of course.
07:46That's why we come to number 9 right away.
07:47Because there is a group that has fought long and hard
07:50until it was understood.
07:52Here is your place 9.
07:56The Bully Parade
07:59Servus.
08:00We are the bravest of all.
08:02I am super.
08:03Super plus.
08:04And I am normal.
08:06The Bully Parade
08:08Since 1997, Michael Herbig and co. have been delivering a comedy made in Bavaria.
08:15Welcome, dear audience.
08:17My name is Pavel Pipovic.
08:19And my old colleague Branko Kuliska is my guest.
08:22Branko, hello.
08:24Pavel, hello too.
08:25The whole team,
08:27so Tranec and also Rick,
08:29Geranium,
08:31I can't remember the word.
08:33You just sit on your knees and say,
08:36Chapeau.
08:39Oh, Sissi.
08:40Two donkos.
08:42We have no spare time.
08:43Shoot.
08:44Imperial Highness.
08:45What is it again?
08:46Please don't shoot the donkos.
08:47We are in the middle of the mating ritual.
08:50Bravo, Sissi.
08:52A magnifying glass of coitus interruptus.
08:55All for Austria.
08:57For 90 episodes, a cult is created.
08:59For example, our dream ship.
09:03What do you have in the middle of the mating ritual?
09:05Can I join you?
09:06I'll show you 106 centimeters.
09:10Mr. Spock.
09:11For me, Bully Herbig is the only colleague in Germany who is allowed to play homosexual men.
09:18Because he just does it brilliantly.
09:21I couldn't do it better.
09:24The surname.
09:25Good.
09:26Then we write Spock.
09:29You, Ranger, give me the Cheyenne pepper.
09:31Sure.
09:33Tell me, why did you use a pepper from a competitor?
09:38You don't have your own pepper, do you, Apache?
09:40Yes, but that was a promotional gift.
09:43Welcome to Puderosa Ranch.
09:45In 2001, the three even conquer the cinema screen.
09:48Blood brother, Ranger. Blood brother, twin brother.
09:50Later, brother.
09:54Bully Herbig removes pure recognition and awards for the most successful German film of the post-war period.
10:02Your Majesty.
10:05Your Majesty.
10:06The Empress can't sleep.
10:08At your command, Your Majesty.
10:10Now everything is fine.
10:16Oh, man!
10:18What's going on?
10:19Look at me. I look like a whore.
10:21Yes, that's right.
10:22And you're still full of yourself.
10:25I would have liked to see it go so fast.
10:27And because it's just so, yes, one after the other, zack, zack.
10:39I've known a woman who's been with the same guy for 12 years.
10:42Madness.
10:43Madness.
10:44And I say, if your husband finds out, she's dead.
10:48They just seem like guys.
10:51They're single.
10:54Yeah, but how do they get on that?
10:56Because they're protestant.
10:59Markus is the cozy fat guy.
11:01You too, land yourself.
11:02Inga is right. Let it be.
11:04Land yourself.
11:05Ralf, always the squirmy little clown.
11:08Finally, the others are all thrown away.
11:10One more word and I...
11:12Land yourself!
11:13Look at that!
11:14Land yourself!
11:16And Mirja is like the cup of tea between the two of them.
11:19Land yourself!
11:20Look!
11:21Land yourself!
11:26Do you remember when I saw the commercial for the Telekom?
11:29I thought, why isn't he in a sketch show?
11:31Playing on the Internet with others.
11:33In the community of massive gaming agents.
11:37Mirja Boes.
11:38Also known as singer Möhre.
11:43Darling, could you please pass me the brush?
11:46Sure.
11:54On the places 9 and 8, the Bully Parade and the 3rd 3.
12:00The 3rd 3, a comedy flat.
12:02Can you imagine living in a flat with other comedians as a comedian?
12:08What was it like?
12:09I've lived in several flats.
12:13Back then there was the term comedy.
12:15That was the end of the 80s.
12:17And only very funny people lived there.
12:20That was a thing.
12:21There was a lot of argument.
12:23I think the arguments were the funniest.
12:25And you?
12:26I've also lived in flats with people who work in the same industry.
12:29But not with comedians.
12:30I think it's a shame.
12:31I can imagine it well.
12:32If they are also okay.
12:33If they have a little more to offer.
12:36If they just come from the toilet.
12:38Then it would be nice.
12:39But I know a famous comedy flat where I often visited.
12:42That was in Heller von Sinnen und Dirkbach.
12:44We lived together for years.
12:46And of course I was a regular guest.
12:48And it was very funny there.
12:50There are also comedians who are funny in private.
12:52It is always said that they are all very different.
12:54There are also other facets.
12:56But there are comedians who just sit there and can't leave it.
12:59We laughed tears there.
13:01There was also a time when Otto lived with Weston Hagen and Udo Lindenberg.
13:06The three?
13:07In Hamburg in the 70s.
13:08I imagine that to be even funnier than three comedians living together now.
13:12How do you explain this incredible success that Bully himself has with the films he has now made?
13:18Why did he suddenly get so big?
13:21It's very clever.
13:22He first developed characters for television and made a film out of it.
13:25And he took myths that everyone knows.
13:27German myths.
13:28Sissi.
13:29In an unusual combination.
13:31So a Bavarian-speaking western star.
13:34I think that's something that no one would understand on paper.
13:37Or film producers would say, well, I can't do anything about it now.
13:41But he then proved that this is a great, bearable concept.
13:44Yes, but he worked on it for a long time.
13:45We also talked about it.
13:46It took a long time until it really worked.
13:48And now suddenly 10 million, 12 million cinema viewers.
13:51That's impressive.
13:52I hope that he will also make the Sissi film soon.
13:54Definitely.
13:55So if I may apply here, I would also like to play along.
13:58In a joke in the Sissi film.
14:00Sissi had a little sister.
14:01Maybe that's a role for me.
14:02Wigald?
14:04Yes, I have a little sister.
14:05I have a little sister.
14:06I have a little sister.
14:07You are the little sister and you are Sissi's dog.
14:10Dog is good.
14:11Exactly.
14:12Wigald is Sissi's dog.
14:13We now come to a man who has proven four times a week
14:16how powerful television can sometimes be.
14:20Here is your place 7.
14:22My stone in television entertainment.
14:24Welcome to TV total.
14:26And here is your host, Stefan Raab.
14:29So he's really, really good at it.
14:32TV total first airs on March 8, 1999.
14:37Stefan has one of the best stages ever.
14:41Hey, hey, cool show.
14:43Gina Wild.
14:44Let's go.
14:45So, let's start.
14:46Hey, hey, cool show.
14:48Gina Wild.
14:49Let's go.
14:51So, are you all there?
14:52No, no, no.
14:55Raab in danger.
14:56The learned butcher from Cologne explores his limits.
15:01My dear Scholli.
15:10Where he really had good faces and almost puked.
15:13And then I thought, what is he doing for his viewers?
15:16The WOC World Championship 2005.
15:19Promos in china pans.
15:21Also his hand to the great madness.
15:23Just to initiate a WOC World Championship.
15:26Which is brilliant.
15:37What is always great with him is when it comes to music.
15:40Because he's just a good musician.
15:42His grandchild Max Mutzke.
15:49He discovers talents.
15:50Be it in the direction of music or in moderation.
15:54And his stepchild, intern Elton.
16:05Stefan Raab can't deny his past.
16:09He manages to mix it all up.
16:11Comedy, music, brilliant events.
16:13Where do you see this man in 10 years?
16:16With what he has accomplished.
16:18From Viva to these events.
16:20I think he stays where he is now.
16:22Makes it very successful.
16:24And will stop at some point.
16:25He says that himself.
16:26He says, I'll do it until I have enough money.
16:28Then I'll pull myself back and make a world tour.
16:30And look further.
16:31I think he's pretty good where he is now.
16:33Definitely.
16:34But I can also imagine that he can moderate such big events again in the future.
16:38Those that have become serious.
16:40He wants to participate.
16:42He has to have guest moderators at the events.
16:44Because he's so crazy.
16:45That he sits in wok bowls everywhere.
16:47Jumps off towers.
16:48I like to see that too.
16:49When moderators don't just have a big mouth.
16:51But say, I'm really participating myself.
16:53But that's what makes it great, I think.
16:55Definitely.
16:56I think what makes him special for me personally.
16:59No TV show has ever managed to get me to buy a wok, for example.
17:06I seriously did that to go for a stroll behind the house.
17:11That's a sign of a special...
17:13You stroll around in a wok at home.
17:15Yes, I wanted to know that.
17:16I still cook in a wok.
17:17I'm very old-fashioned.
17:18You can also cook in a wok after strolling, by the way.
17:21Ah, that could be a topic in ten years.
17:23So a combination show.
17:25Cooking and then strolling.
17:26Running in a wok and then strolling and cooking.
17:28A cooking show with Stefan Rath.
17:31I bet the broadcasters will tear each other apart.
17:33Is he a learned butcher?
17:36Very good, very good.
17:37Wiegald and Georg.
17:38Often a single quote is enough to find out which show you're watching.
17:44Yes.
17:45Hohecker, Sie sind raus! is designated for Switch.
17:47For our next location, I only need to put two crazy words together.
17:52And we know exactly who we're dealing with.
17:55Palim, Palim.
17:56Yes.
17:57Have fun.
17:59Palim, Palim.
18:02In just 20 episodes, this show will become a cult.
18:06The singer is here.
18:08Non-Stop Nonsense, presented by Dieter Hallervorden.
18:12Palim, Palim.
18:14Good day.
18:15Good day.
18:16Please, what can I get you?
18:17I'd like a bottle of pomfret.
18:24I just say Palim, Palim.
18:26Today's kids might not be able to start anything,
18:28but back then, that was a gag for a whole generation.
18:31For five years, until 1980, Didi's world around herself is in chaos.
18:36The middle part of Dr. Chivago.
18:38Dr. Chivago.
18:39Sleep, sleep, fish runs.
18:41Sleep, sleep, fish runs.
18:43Non-Stop Nonsense is actually the show I owe my high school diploma to.
18:48My life, so to speak.
18:50Because it came so late, and I was only allowed to watch it when I was in school.
18:54May I invite you to a drink?
18:56To the hotel?
18:59You've misunderstood me.
19:01I wanted to ask you to have a coffee with me.
19:03What? To the hotel?
19:08Those are gags that were written in a time
19:11when there were only three TV stations for us kids.
19:14Imagine that.
19:15Those were hard times.
19:16But luckily, there was Didi Hallervorden and Non-Stop Nonsense.
19:19Excuse me for bringing you into an awkward situation,
19:23but I'm a sociology student,
19:25and I wanted to test the behavior of the citizens here.
19:29What? 150 times?
19:36Ingo Oschmann just talked about it.
19:38Didi Hallervorden was a role model for him.
19:40Was he a pioneer of German comedy? Didi Hallervorden?
19:43There wasn't that much.
19:45It was actually Otto and Didi Hallervorden.
19:47A role model for you now?
19:48Someone you liked to laugh at?
19:50Yes, definitely.
19:51Not only because of his comedy,
19:53but also because it looked so modern at the time.
19:56The layout.
19:57For example, you just saw how Non-Stop Nonsense was written.
20:00And then there were great eight-episodes,
20:02in which the Beetle, who played a role there, was seen.
20:0520 chapters.
20:06A whole variety of great ideas,
20:09what you can have on TV.
20:11Was what he did totally innovative at the time?
20:13Definitely.
20:14For Germany, yes.
20:15I think there was only very little.
20:17And it was often imported from England.
20:19I think the great thing about him is,
20:21he always has something threatening.
20:23He later made films where he played criminals.
20:26If you look closely, he's a comedian,
20:28but you think you can also scare children with him.
20:31Not because he looks a bit bizarre now,
20:33but there's always a black, dark layer underneath.
20:35I like that.
20:36I think if you show that to four or five-year-olds,
20:38they could start crying.
20:40And he always plays these crazy, very bourgeois characters.
20:43And I also liked the woman.
20:45Rotraut Schnappler is still his wife.
20:47And that's about Comedy WG.
20:49They're a couple.
20:50And she was always this tolerant.
20:52He was always completely hysterical,
20:54and she was always the woman who tolerated something.
20:57That was somehow so archetypical.
20:59We have already met five places
21:01at Top Ten TV, the funniest comedy shows.
21:03You can really rock it at home

21:53Welcome back to Top Ten TV.
21:58Today our topic is the 10 funniest comedy shows.
22:02Our table in the background is slowly filling up.
22:05We have already seen the Bully Parade,
22:07among other things, TV Total, Nonstop Nonsense
22:09and my guests, Vigard Boning and Georg Uecker.
22:17The comedy show has changed over the years
22:20and is still changing.
22:22Are there any no-no's,
22:24that you absolutely can't do anymore,
22:26throw a cake in your face,
22:28put your leg down or is it timeless?
22:31Well, there is a time limit.
22:33Let's take a bicycle,
22:35which you put on a wall for 15 minutes
22:37and you film it without a cut.
22:39This is something that is hard to do
22:41in a TV show nowadays.
22:43Helge Schneider commented on this.
22:45Yes, it looks completely different.
22:47I thought of Nonsense, Nonsense.
22:49Nonsense, anyway.
22:51Very hard to establish nowadays in the TV landscape.
22:54I think what is not going so well at the moment
22:56is that you become too easy in humor.
23:00Too flat.
23:02Too flat, yes.
23:04If someone comes up with a blondie joke
23:06in the beginning of the show
23:08or if a woman comes to the doctor,
23:10I am happy because I think
23:12there is going to be a double twist.
23:14Even if it is really flat and poorly presented,
23:16I am personally happy.
23:18It is like a talent show.
23:20A casting talent show,
23:22where someone goes and starts with
23:24good evening and a woman comes to the doctor.
23:26You sit there and get cramped and panicked.
23:28We come to the fifth place
23:30and I give a little hint.
23:32I sit on this little teddy bear.
23:34Is this the original?
23:36It really looks like it.
23:38It speaks English,
23:40but does it relatively rarely in his show.
23:42Here is your fifth place.
24:04In 1991 a, let's say,
24:06somewhat different hero
24:08lands in German television.
24:10Mr. Bean.
24:12A sparkling jewel
24:14in the comedy crown of the British Empire.
24:16It was an event for us.
24:18The whole family came together
24:20to watch Mr. Bean.
24:22I also loved the teddy bear.
24:24The teddy bear is also the only thing
24:26that Mr. Bean really likes.
24:28Otherwise, he is characterized by two qualities.
24:30He is behind the camera,
24:32but he is also in front of the camera.
24:34He is a little bit shy.
24:36He is a little bit shy.
24:38He is a little bit shy.
24:40He is a little bit shy.
24:42He is a little bit shy.
24:44He is a little bit shy.
24:46He is a little bit shy.
25:08Although he has little similarity
25:10with Buster Keaton,
25:12he never said a word.
25:26He is so simple,
25:28so strict,
25:30that we think again,
25:32man, what is behind him?
25:38And here is your host.
25:40Here is your host.
25:42Harald Schmid.
25:46First, he copies his American role model,
25:48David Letterman.
25:50But in the course of eight years,
25:52Schmid develops his own style.
25:54Ladies and gentlemen,
25:56you see me,
25:58slightly tanned with this tan,
26:00where you say to yourself,
26:02vacation or end stadium.
26:04Why do you do that,
26:06that you are so good every day?
26:08I am an absolute fan of Harald Schmid.
26:10I don't think,
26:12that Harald Schmid is God.
26:14Some people claimed that,
26:16after he stopped at Sat.1.
26:18And I am sure,
26:20I shook his hand,
26:22that he is not God,
26:24but he is damn awesome.
26:26This is the information
26:28of the parents.
26:30Many ask,
26:32how will the baby look like?
26:34With these parents,
26:36let me hear you scream!
26:38Scream!
26:40Also famous,
26:42the fat children of Landau
26:44and the wisdom of Confucius.
26:48Confucius said,
26:50Our grandmothers and fathers
26:52in the green stone,
26:54Mottola,
26:56fight,
26:58need somebody to love.
27:00A great comedian,
27:02who really dares something
27:04and who was prepared,
27:06for many things,
27:08that were not possible before.
27:10Not always,
27:12the prominent guests
27:14have to talk a lot.
27:16And still,
27:18everything is demanded.
27:20Here it is said,
27:22for Bastian Pastewka,
27:24who looks away first,
27:26has lost.
27:34Anke Engelke
27:46Anke Engelke
27:48Unsuccessfully,
27:50she starts her successor,
27:52after Harald Schmidt
27:54in December 2003,
27:56cleans his chair at Sat.1
27:58and disappears for 12 months
28:00from the screen.
28:04Mr. Bean
28:06and Harald Schmidt
28:10Harald Schmidt
28:12Is this typical German comedy?
28:14The original, of course not.
28:16The format is everywhere.
28:18But what he does.
28:20He has developed it.
28:22For a while,
28:24it was thought,
28:26he really breaks all the limits of television.
28:28I found it very entertaining.
28:30But I also thought,
28:32he made it dark.
28:34He played the Odyssey
28:36with Playmobil figures.
28:38The French show
28:40I was there 10 times.
28:42In one show,
28:44he walked the whole show
28:46on the treadmill.
28:48I sat next to him.
28:50After 20 minutes,
28:52he had no breath.
28:54In the advertising breaks,
28:56you could see
28:58how he walked.
29:00At that moment,
29:02we broke all the TV expectations.
29:04Are there differences
29:06between Mr. Bean and Harald Schmidt?
29:08Yes.
29:10Mr. Bean, for example,
29:12managed to build a monopole
29:14for these TV shows
29:16that are offered
29:18on holiday planes.
29:20Every time I fly to Mallorca,
29:22you can watch Mr. Bean movies
29:24on one channel.
29:26I don't know how he did it.
29:28Harald Schmidt is the motherland
29:30of comedy.
29:32Mr. Bean, you can sell
29:34the whole world.
29:36Harald Schmidt, of course not.
29:38You only understand that here.
29:40He makes a show
29:42that is up-to-date
29:44and related to a country.
29:46He is brilliant.
29:48I can't compare it
29:50with English formats.
29:52You lack the knowledge.
29:54I lived in London for two years.
29:56They are brilliant.
29:58Comedy belongs
30:00to the basic need.
30:02It also takes place in newspapers.
30:04It is taken seriously.
30:06It is celebrated.
30:08There are critics for it.
30:10There are a lot of comedy awards.
30:12There are 100,000 stand-up clubs
30:14where people are supported.
30:16We don't have that in Germany.
30:18It's like having a subscription
30:20in a city theatre.
30:22We talked about genius.
30:24We will see someone
30:26in the next place
30:28who is one of my favourites.
30:30He can do a lot
30:32and makes a show.
30:34Here he is.
30:38The German-speaking world
30:40laughs about it.
30:42We are Ripoli,
30:44the most disgusting band
30:46in the world from Finland.
30:48The Finnish rock band.
30:50Brilliant.
30:54How was the video?
30:56How did you like it?
30:58Harpe Kerkeling
31:00stormed the charts
31:02or at least the Viva-studio.
31:04Please!
31:06Calm down.
31:08Sit down.
31:10A big round of applause
31:12for Ripoli.
31:14You see?
31:16Oh my God!
31:20In 1999, Harpe took over
31:22the show of Fritz Egner
31:24and put his stamp on it.
31:26The world laughed about it.
31:28I saw it with my wife.
31:30They see Harpe as the master
31:32of the 1000 masks.
31:40He doesn't insult people.
31:42He is a funny guy.
31:44No wonder.
31:46German prominence
31:48and journalists from Austria
31:50We are used to
31:52taking a cold shower
31:54in Lithuania.
31:56It was a surprise
31:58for me
32:00to take a shower
32:02in warm water.
32:04The world!
32:06The world!
32:08Coach Klaus Augenthaler
32:10is back.
32:12His successor
32:14is from Lithuania.
32:16How he does it
32:18May I?
32:20We are waiting.
32:22How often have you been here?
32:24I have been here several times.
32:26Good evening, Mrs. Basta.
32:28That's enough.
32:30Nina Ruge was here.
32:32She is drunk.
32:34I love you the most.
32:36Come here!
32:38Harpe Kerkeling
32:40is in third place.
32:42Is there a favourite person
32:44he plays for you?
32:46All the time?
32:48Or only once?
32:50Only once.
32:52There is one.
32:54Beatrix in the Bellevue Palace.
32:56Delicious lunch
32:58as queen Beatrix.
33:00And Hurtz.
33:04Hurtz is very nice.
33:06For those who don't know
33:08he played
33:10a russian folk song
33:12in front of many people.
33:14It was about Hurtz.
33:16And the chorus was always Hurtz.
33:18And afterwards people
33:20in the discussion
33:22sit there and say
33:24yes, but the deeper meaning
33:26and the criticism
33:28I didn't understand.
33:30I like it when he goes straight in.
33:32Straight?
33:34Delicious girl, delicious girl
33:36he likes to say.
33:38And then he talks to some women
33:40and they are confused
33:42He has to be very
33:44painless.
33:46When you shoot things
33:48where he starts on prominence
33:50you have to have good nerves.
33:52You are always humiliated.
33:54Go away.
33:56You saw how much humour Nina Ruge has.
33:58It went relatively fast.
34:00We are coming to second place.
34:02There the air is getting tighter.
34:04Because it is not about
34:06a single comedian
34:08but about a whole team.
34:10Genial Daneben
34:12The funniest
34:14fighting arena
34:16in german television.
34:18The genius of Genial Daneben
34:20is this very simple concept.
34:22There is an old man
34:24called Hugo
34:26and he asks questions.
34:28Sometimes someone
34:30from the studio
34:32has to ask 500 questions.
34:34What are ostriches?
34:36The secret is
34:38that you try to
34:40explain terms
34:42you have never heard
34:44by funny comedians.
34:46Maybe ostriches
34:48are the birds
34:50that don't return
34:52to their home after
34:54the birds have gone south.
34:56They are ostriches.
34:58I know that Hugo Egon Balder
35:00needed years
35:02to convince a broadcaster
35:04how to make
35:06an ostrich
35:08have sex
35:10with up to 30 men
35:12at the same time.
35:14With energy and stamina.
35:16Of course.
35:18Hella is a great comedian
35:20with whom it is
35:22a lot of fun
35:24because she goes out a lot.
35:26I guess different
35:28big animals.
35:30The female is much bigger
35:32than the male.
35:34She reads books
35:36and subscribes to
35:38the spectrum of science.
35:40That was the right answer.
35:42In the foreground
35:44is the fun of the joy.
35:46What is a cleaning lip?
35:48A naked cleaner
35:50with a hang for oral activities.
35:52You mean they slide
35:54with naked asses over the fence?
35:56It is a lot of fun
35:58to sit in the show
36:00and watch the show.
36:12A simple but genius idea.
36:14It works.
36:16You are guests.
36:18I want to explain
36:20two terms.
36:22The cleaning lip
36:24is the rubber hose
36:26in a laundry
36:28that is sucked.
36:30But what are the
36:32striped birds?
36:34You were in the show.
36:36I was.
36:38But there is a tip.
36:40It is about
36:42birds with
36:44a heavy head
36:46and a long beak
36:48that wait through the mud.
36:50When they move forward
36:52the beak hangs
36:54in the mud
36:56to draw in the mud.
36:58That is the striped bird.
37:00I have no idea.
37:02I was in the show.
37:04I didn't see it.
37:06I would say they are
37:08amsels and drossels
37:10that make money
37:12by prostitution.
37:16The male companions
37:18of a board stone.
37:20Striped birds.
37:22I can tell you.
37:24They fly 100 km
37:26to the south.
37:28They only change the land.
37:30Right.
37:32Now I remember.
37:34Hugo Egon Balder
37:36asks his team
37:38several questions.
37:40I ask you two simple questions.
37:42Who is our number one
37:44at Top Ten TV,
37:46the ten funniest comedy shows?
37:48Did you answer
37:50our price question?
37:52Who is the
37:54Talkmaster of TV Total?

38:02Think about it.
38:04You can win the following prizes.

38:34Welcome to Top Ten TV
38:36and tonight
38:38the ten funniest comedy shows.
38:40My guests Georg Ecker,
38:42Wigald Bohning
38:44and our list
38:46is almost full.
38:48Who is
38:50our number one?
38:52Who do you think it is?
38:54One name.
38:56Nina Ruge with Leute Heute.
38:58Was was the choice?
39:00Yes, it was the choice.
39:02It's a comedy show.
39:04Wigald?
39:06I would have chosen
39:08Samstag Nacht.
39:10I would have chosen Schillerstraße.
39:12Before I forget my own promo.
39:14No, wait.
39:16We change it.
39:18I think number one
39:20is definitely
39:22Leute Heute.
39:24I would have chosen Schillerstraße.
39:26Okay, good.
39:28I can say
39:30number one
39:32is a man.
39:34A man?
39:36Yes, and you can see him now.
39:38He is coming.
39:40And
39:42now
39:44it really starts.
39:46Here comes
39:48the absolute number one.
39:50The Otto Show.
39:52You are young. You are in love.
39:54You need glasses.
39:56Otto. Otto.
39:58I grew up with Otto.
40:00I knew all his songs.
40:02Hello, this is Harry Hirsch.
40:04Good day. I am here
40:06in the marketplace of Gütersloh
40:08and I would like to ask you
40:10about the popularity of Otto.
40:12What do you think about Otto?
40:14I can't laugh about it.
40:16Horrible.
40:18Very horrible.
40:20Otto. When I hear the name.
40:22An amusing guy.
40:24Maybe I find it funny.
40:26Otto.
40:28I tip.
40:30Otto is cult.
40:32He is a very big...
40:34Good evening. My name is Harry Hirsch
40:36and I would like to go to the Otto Show.
40:38Can you tell me how to get there?
40:40No problem. Follow me.
40:44All my friends
40:46wear the new forward hairstyle.
40:48But my hair
40:50doesn't want to hold.
40:52Only the board helps.
40:54The new hairdryer.
40:58He is just arrogant.
41:00Yes, the board creates
41:02hairstyles you can rely on.
41:04Of course I smoke.
41:06My machine also smokes.
41:08Let's listen to his message.
41:18Past and present.
41:20For Otto Walkes
41:22it looks like this after 30 years.
41:24Full of soul.
41:26Party in Ostfriesenhand.
41:28Hello Berlin.
41:30Hello.
41:32Hello.
41:34The fact that he is still in business
41:36is spectacular.
41:38Not many colleagues are still in business.
41:40Shouldn't we think about that?
41:42I think no.
41:46Number one.
41:48At Top 10 TV. Otto.
41:50Am I right?
41:52Of course.
41:54I would like to show you something.
41:56This is my
41:58very first Otto book.
42:00I put it together
42:02especially for tonight.
42:04My favorite sketch is Kylie.
42:06When did you see Otto
42:08for the first time?
42:10I saw him first.
42:12Me too.
42:14And I was in the WCM hall
42:16in Oldenburg.
42:18Otto appeared there.
42:20I was allowed to stay longer
42:22because I had to go to school the next day.
42:24It was an amazing experience.
42:26I was there with my parents
42:28and I have never seen my father
42:30laugh like that.
42:32He almost cried.
42:34I have never seen him live.
42:36I have seen him on TV
42:38with my best friend Sigrid.
42:40We could do it all by heart.
42:42She was running back and forth
42:44and we laughed about it every time.
42:46When you look at the excerpts
42:48it is so striking
42:50that you can remember
42:52every single picture.
42:54You know it.
42:56It is so admirable
42:58because he can draw,
43:00he can sing,
43:02he can write,
43:04he can play.
43:06He has been doing it
43:08for more than three decades.
43:10Let's take a look at the books
43:12and listen to the record.
43:14Thank you very much,
43:16Vigard and Kjot.
43:18That was it.
43:20Thank you for watching.
43:22See you next week.
43:24God bless.
