All on the little ones was a German game show that was produced in the MMC Coloneum in Cologne. The first edition was broadcast on January 4, 2013 on the private television station RTL . The show was not broadcast live, but recorded live on tape beforehand . A total of five episodes were broadcast.

Gameplay

Three candidates play in each show for a prize of up to 100,000 euros. In different team or individual games, they have to prove skill, physical fitness and speed. Each of the candidates occupies one of the areas of strength , fitness and brains. The prerequisite for the candidates is that they are taller than Oliver Pocher , i.e. at least 1.69 meters tall.

The three candidates are presented one after the other at the beginning of the show and have to play directly against Pocher. There is one point for winning a game. After three individual games there is a team game in which all candidates compete against Oliver Pocher. Each of the candidates who is better than Pocher gets one point for his team. In return, Oliver Pocher receives one point for each candidate he beats. From the second round, the audience in the studio decides who should play the game. However, each candidate may only run once per round. Oliver Pocher, however, competes in every game. In the first edition, he was allowed to choose his then wife Alessandra Pocher as the joker in a game . In issues two and three, they played a predetermined game together. However, they had announced their separation before the second show was broadcast. At the end of the show there is a final in which only one of the three candidates is allowed to compete. If the candidates can agree on which of them should compete, the two players who are eliminated will in any case receive 10,000 euros. The candidate in the final then plays for 80,000 euros. Should the candidates fail to come to an agreement, the audience in the studio will decide. The chosen candidate then plays for the entire 100,000 euros, the other two get nothing. The points earned in the previous rounds give the candidate with the higher number of points an advantage in the final game.

The games are related to a journey through time. In a short film, viewers learn chronologically ordered facts that are not related to each other, but form the basis for the next game, which is explained at the end of the film.

Moderation

The show was moderated by Sonja Zietlow . Heiko Waßer commented on the games together with Alessandra Pocher , who was still involved in the show after separating from her husband.

criticism

“What Stefan Raab has turned into the best Saturday evening entertainment at the moment, Pocher turns it into a four-hour monster with no sense or understanding, in which all those involved only prove that they are unsuitable for television. Sonja Zietlow shows that she is not a presenter, RTL shows that it is no longer a serious broadcaster and Oliver Pocher shows that there is no reason to see anything other than a flitz in him. "

- The daily mirror

“Anyone who switched on because of the 'Pocher' in the title of the show will be disappointed. He speaks little and has even less fun. […] Between Pocher's sneezing and Zietlow's zot, the one and a half hours until the first commercial break are so long that the remote control operators should have long since fallen asleep in front of all GfK quota measuring devices that are then registered. "

- Süddeutsche Zeitung

“Both the candidates and Pocher from the first of the 240 minutes of broadcasting missed the bite that Raab and his opponents show in 'Schlag den Raab'. That makes 'all on the little ones' a dubious pleasure after a short time. Pocher rightly asks after 35 minutes whether it would take a long time? Yes it takes. And how it takes. [...] Judging by the action promised in advance, 'All on the little one' just seems too sterile. The spontaneity suffers in favor of the planned staging. Moderator Sonja Zietlow cannot change this impression. It is a plus point for 'everyone on the little ones' because it guides you through the RTL show cracker in a structured and sorted manner. [...] Pocher's wife Sandy is sitting next to the commentator as a sidekick. [...] The anecdotes range between embarrassing and unimportant. [...] In direct comparison, 'Schlag den Raab' boxes in a higher weight class when it comes to tension. "
