A national-language content partnership and weekly show launch between a publisher and a streaming service has limited AdTech industry impact; it's primarily programming/content news rather than platform, policy, or ad-technology change.

Celebrity TV Events Shift Between German Broadcasters
German broadcasters and streamers are increasingly financing celebrity-driven television projects, prompting format moves and new co-productions across the market. Notable recent shifts include Heidi Klum's "HeidiFest" moving from ProSieben to RTL (airing Sept 17 on RTL and RTL+), Joyn acquiring Joko & Klaas's travel-format (starting Aug 26 on Joyn), and Prime Video being lined up for Kai Pflaume's space-themed travel special. Broadcasters (ARD, ZDF, WDR, ProSieben, RTL, Vox, Sat.1) and streamers (Joyn, RTL+) are trading and co-producing high-cost celebrity formats — from reality restaurant builds to talent-rediscovery shows — as stars leverage competing outlets to realise personal projects.
