Frauenzimmer was a talk show broadcast on weekdays from October 26 to November 20, 2009 on the private broadcaster VOX , which was based on the British program "Loose Women", which has been running since 1999. A forerunner of the show in German-speaking countries was Ralph Morgenstern's weekly talk show Blond am Freitag (2001-2007), nominated for the Rose d'Or .

Shipment concept

In the first half of the program, four prominent women discussed "Topics of the Day" (mainly from the boulevard area ). The daily changing line-up was recruited from a permanent team consisting of Bettina Böttinger , Yasmina Filali , Maite Kelly , Evelyn Holst , Hatice Akyün , Birgit Ehrenberg and Martina Brandl . In the second half, a studio guest came in, who was then the focus of the conversation. The first studio guest was Ross Antony . Other studio guests were Arthur Abraham , Ingrid van Bergen , Gundis Zámbó , Fiona Erdmann , Rupert Everett and Germany's Next Topmodel judge Rolf Scheider .

Since the audience numbers remained below the station's expectations, the program was shortened from November 9th with corresponding changes to the concept from one hour to half an hour. When this measure did not bring the desired improvement in viewership either, the program was canceled on November 20, 2009.

criticism

  • Jana Schulze from the Frankfurter Rundschau commented: “Anyone who does the 'woman's room' in the afternoons from now on has to be prepared for 'chatter without point and comma' (original sound [...]). But it's fun and if one day the potential is exhausted, the daily program would also have a chance of getting a nice evening place in the Vox program. "
  • At the end of Harry Nutt's comment you can read: " (The women) have not fallen on their mouths, but they do not attach great importance to having to prove it every second. In contrast to Beckmann, Kerner and Co. It doesn't matter here to generate meaning. It's just television. The women know that. And it's fun to watch them. "
