Happy Day was simply too long, and more musical interludes would do the show good. A number of audience council members found the appearances of companies and sponsors in the show offensive, and said that particular restraint was required here.
The Council followed the US election night on SF and also compared it with the German-language channels ZDF, ORF and RTL. The ZDF program came out on top in the assessment. SF ranked second ahead of third-placed RTL and ORF. The graphic implementation could and should be improved.
The Council has nothing to criticize about the daily children's programme Pirando on DRS 1, and the Internet offering for the programme is downright impressive. What needs to be improved, however, is the promotion of the program, the Audience Council continues.
