Television creation
His television history trilogy, broadcast between January 2003 and December 2004, attracted particular attention: The first part, The Whole One Talking , deals with the first thirty years of German TV talk (3 parts of 60 min., About Sex and Love , About Difficult Life and from the end on earth , of women and other politicians ); Our elected representatives will contact the politicians call on German television apart (2 parts of 60 min., Liar wins? , Who answers, loses? ), And endless games? Finally, the big TV show on German television reflects (2 parts of 90 min., curiosity and glee , everyday escape or education ). In each of these parts, Anne Will questioned a well-known group of protagonists critically about their own actions. For the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung , a new era began in how television deals with itself; for the Frankfurter Rundschau , these documentaries were still among the wisest self-reflections in June 2014 of television. Discussions about satire on public television sparked his homage in 2007. Mr. Schmidt turns 50, but does not want to celebrate ; it contained excerpts from the Harald Schmidt Show on Sat.1 , which Harald Schmidt had labeled Dirty Harry . He broke new ground as an editor together with host Jürgen Becker : With his construction site in Germany , cabaret and talk on site took place in December 2012 in the DiTiB Merkez Mosque in Duisburg, in December 2013 in the New Synagogue in Düsseldorf, in June 2015 in the still unfinished DiTiB central mosque in Cologne and in November of the same year in the coffin store of an undertaker in Bergisch Gladbach.
