Last Saturday, popular pastor Ernst Sieber presented "Thoughts on Sunday" on U1 TV and promptly brought the channel a new viewer record. U1 TV deduces from this an increased interest in programs with religious content.

Normally, TV sermons are not necessarily considered a ratings hit in this country. However, "Thoughts on Sunday" on the national private broadcaster U1 TV, which recorded a peak of 131,000 viewers last weekend, shows that they can be. According to a press release, U1 expects the figures to continue to rise.
The star himself, Pastor Sieber, expressed his delight in a statement, but was not surprised: "I have already spoken on SF or TeleZüri. At peak times, Swiss television received up to 80 kilos of mail after a broadcast. The reactions ranged from enthusiasm for my words to enthusiasm for the pattern of my sweater".
