TV Market: Sat.1 Sends Lenßen to Primetime, Revives Call-In Show
German broadcaster Sat.1 will feature Ingo Lenßen in three primetime episodes starting November 2, 2026. The series 'Lenßen: Anklage Mord' airs Mondays at 20:15, followed by the call-in show 'Lenßen Live' at 22:15, which returns after a 3.5-year hiatus. 'Lenßen Live' was previously broadcast on Sat.1 Gold and is produced by RedSeven Entertainment. The primetime films are produced by UFA Serial Drama and focus on fictional murder cases with real legal questions. Viewers can call or WhatsApp their questions during the live show. This programming move aims to strengthen Sat.1's primetime lineup with a familiar face from its daytime schedule.
Sat.1's programming move is industry-relevant in German broadcasting but not major AdTech news.
