A long-running German television series about a two-man team of highway police, originally set in Berlin and later in North Rhine-Westphalia.
Deutschland sucht den Superstar is a German reality talent show, also commonly known by its initials DSDS. Part of the Idol franchise, it was created by English media mogul Simon Fuller as a spin-off from the British show Pop Idol, of which two series were broadcast between the years of 2001 and 2003. Debuting to mediocre ratings in October 2002 on the RTL network, the show has since become one of the most successful shows on German television. The program aims to discover the best singer in the country through a series of nationwide auditions in which viewer voting determines the winner. Voting is done through telephone and SMS text voting.
The candidates live for four weeks in a “sala”, an open bamboo hut, on a tropical beach bay on Phuket. In various games they fight for the title “Realitystar 2020” and for a prize of 50,000 euros. In the course of each episode, additional candidates join the candidate field. At the “Hour of Truth”, the followers have the power to elect two of the candidates who have been drafted before them from the show and are protected from being voted out even at their first “Hour of Truth”. The candidates can earn luxury goods, or lose existing ones. In addition, the candidates must regularly assess themselves in different categories.
