 Twelve years after its launch, Switzerland's longest-serving comedy series is canceled, according to its producers. Shortly before the end of "Café Bâle", Christoph Blocher is the first Federal Councillor to appear on the show, after which "Fussballtalk" ousts the series from the program.  
According to Basler Zeitung Medien (BZM), Blocher wanted to prove in the comedy test that Federal Councillors can do much more than blog or sing a song by Edith Piaf. The program can be seen on SF2 as well as on various regional TV stations. The show with Christoph Blocher will be broadcast on April 22 at 21.00 on SF2.
 
The series will be discontinued due to the 2008 European Football Championship. In view of this major event, BZM intends to expand the "Football Talk" that it produces for Presse TV and broadcasts at irregular intervals. From the end of August, the talk show will be shown 26 times a year in the "Café Bale" slot.
