Panel show
The panel show is a television format . The programs are recorded in studios, with a team (the panel) consisting mainly of celebrities, who primarily have to solve quiz tasks set by a game master. Programs in which the guests discuss the topics set by the director of the show are rarer. The team and the head of the show sit opposite each other at tables, and the moderator rarely takes his place in the middle of the team.
One of the first panel shows included the international morning pint , moderated by Werner Höfer from 1953, and the program Was bin ich? Led by Robert Lembke from 1955 onwards . Today, the majority of the panels are comedy programs; the team members are sometimes not tied to one program, but can instead be members of several teams at the same time.
