Fly with Me! was a quiz show moderated by Guido Cantz , in which two singles who only get to know each other on the show can win a trip or € 1,500 each. It was broadcast by Das Erste on Fridays at 6:50 p.m. from August 18, 2017 to December 1, 2017 . The first season comprises 15 episodes and was produced by i & u TV .

Game flow

Each show had a different destination that the questions revolve around. A female single competed against a male. Before the first question, each single chose a playing partner from two candidates. This was only deviated from in the fifth edition, the “Wedding Special”, in which two wedding couples vie for their honeymoon in Jamaica . In the first round, the pairs of candidates were alternately asked a total of ten questions, with a choice of three possible answers. A correct answer was rewarded with a point.

The second round consists of either-or questions. The first pair to reach eight points wins. The maximum five points achieved in the preliminary round counted. Whoever was in the lead started - if there was a tie, an estimation question decided. Here, too, the questions were asked alternately. A correct answer was given one point. If the answer was wrong, the opposing pair received one point.

In the end, the two victorious singles decided with the help of pilot trowels printed on both sides whether they wanted to travel together. If either or both of them chose “money”, each of them received € 1,500.

reception

Fly with Me! received mostly negative reviews:

In his review of the first issues at DWDL.de , Timo Niemeier said that “the topics of vacation, travel and quizzes certainly offer the opportunity to put on an exciting and entertaining program. But that fails after a few seconds [...]. The show has the charm of a coffee trip for pensioners: no speed, no mood and certainly no tension. ”Niemeier criticizes Cantz's lack of humor several times. He comes to the conclusion: “Because 'Fly with me' is made with too little love and passion, [...] and the moderator is not really in the holiday mood, the new quiz show [...] will probably not be Uproot trees. "

David Grzeschik finds in his commentary on the first issue atquotemeter.de , "that many questions lack the curious or the funny". In addition, he criticizes Guido Cantz, because he “makes a rather mediocre figure. Cantz moderates the opening sequence quite emotionlessly and does not (yet) give it a note of its own. ”He praises the“ beautiful pictures ”that“ arouse the feeling of wanderlust. ”He comes to the conclusion that the show "[lacks] that certain something [...] that noticeably sets it apart from other representatives of the genre."
