Mortar seeks happiness

After Richard and Christina Lugner divorced in the summer of 2007, one last season of this cast was broadcast on ATV. Since the end of the series might have meant a loss of profits for the private broadcaster, it was decided to produce a new format in which Richard Lugner finds a new wife for his happiness. The Lugners - Mörtel sucht das Glück (Mörtel sucht das Glück) was broadcast from September 2007 and was even able to trump the ratings of the previous seasons in some cases.

In each episode, Lugner visited an astrologer and asked her about favorable selection names and zodiac signs of his potential dream women. Then he read through the applications for the programs and invited four women who had applied to come over and interviewed each of them. Then he had to choose two, with whom he then toured a city abroad for a weekend. After the two days he had to choose one of the two women. The woman who “won his heart” was made his miss in the travel city, for example Miss Budapest in Budapest . Towards the end of the 12 episode long season, Lugner selected two finalists from the 6 misses , with whom he spent a vacation in Kenya , after which he decided in the last episode for the winner (Bettina Kofler), who accompanied him to the 2008 Opera Ball.
