In 1994, Mini Bydlinski left the group to advance his solo career. He was replaced by the musical actor Viktor Gernot .

From 1996 to 1999 the TV broadcaster ORF broadcast the comedy series The Sick Sisters , in which the hectic people contributed the script and direction and also participated as actors. In 1996 and 1998 the series received nominations for the Golden Rose of Montreux . In 1997 she was awarded the Romy TV Prize.
