Audience Council on "10vor10", "Pisa" and "Genial daneben"

The Council is generally satisfied with the three programs, but would like to see more tenacity on „10vor10,“ less rambling on „Pisa,“ and greater quick-wittedness on „Genial daneben.“.

According to a press release, the DRS Public Council is satisfied with the development of "10vor10". The focus of the content is adapted to current world events, and the mix of topics with current news and in-depth background reports is successful. In the eyes of the Audience Council, the content is convincing due to its independence, provides important arguments for opinion-forming and represents a valuable addition to the Tagesschau. The moderation, supported by the new graphics, is also well received. However, there was a wish for some background reports to be scrutinized even more consistently for their relevance. There should be even more persistent questioning in the interviews. The "Pisa" program managed the balancing act between imparting knowledge and entertainment. The German model was skillfully implemented with the necessary dose of "Swissness". The forms of audience participation and the additional services on the Internet were also well received. However, some members of the audience council described the length of the program as problematic. Streamlining the program could make it more dynamic and prevent the feeling of being too long and the "switch-off impulse". The Council also identified potential for improvement in the presentation of the show blocks.
 
"Genial daneben", another adaptation from abroad, was also well received by the Audience Council. However, the Swiss version can hardly compete with the foreign originals in terms of wit, quick-wittedness and spontaneity. In principle, however, the Council agreed that the adaptation was a success and that the show was adapted to the Swiss mentality.
