History

As the title suggests, this TV show is given a time slot in the late evening. The American terminology distinguishes the "prime time " ( prime time ) from 20:00 clock, the "late prime time" from 22:00 clock and "late night " from 23:00 clock until the early morning hours. This time slot is occupied by the late-night shows, which are broadcast there from Monday to Friday from 23:30 clock. A study by Newsweek showed that only about 50 out of 600 guests in the American late-night shows were African American, although the latter is twice as many shows as all white Americans.

The Tonight Show was the world's first and most successful late-night show, first aired September 27, 1954, entitled Variety Show on NBC. Its format was the model for future shows of this genre, also in Germany. There followed since 30 August 1993, the Late Show with David Letterman on CBS, a model for the Harald Schmidt Show. At 23:30 clock run on NBC and CBS in parallel with the late-night shows, the ABC news program Nightline and then only since January 26, 2003 Jimmy Kimmel Live running!.

The first show was constructed according to the American model from 16 May 1994, the RTL night show, which was set on 17 November 1995 due to low ratings as Gottschalk's show ( 27 April 1995 ).

The Harald Schmidt Show started from 5th December 1995 Sat.1 and was based entirely on the original - the same (local) time at CBS broadcast Tonight Show - Late Night with David Letterman. However, the back wall in the studio did not show the backdrop of New York's Brooklyn Bridge, but the skyline of Cologne. Even the "Cue Card Girl" with keyword boards was present. The Harald Schmidt Show had to be classified as a hybrid format between late- night talk and comedy show. It was recorded in Cologne Capitol cinema with an audience of 250. Since 1999, she was no longer produced by Brain Pool, but from Schmidt's own production company Bonito and recorded since then in Cologne- Mülheim in the Studio 449. Abendlich looked around the 1 million viewers the show ( market shares between 11% and 14%). She was not a special rate of success, but with regard to viewer popularity barely swaying and reliable. This show, however, was not terminated because of poor ratings, but because of persistent differences between Harald Schmidt and the new sat.1 chief on December 29, 2003.

The year after Harald Schmidt came from 23 December 2004 in ARD, with some modifications in the first late night show on public television. In the Cologne theater at the Rudolf Place ProSieben produced since March 8, 1999 TV total, a Late Night with Stefan Raab. However, the format differs from the usual content, because the show focuses primarily on the presentation of excerpts from German TV broadcasts programs that are suitable for Raab's comedy.
