Pocher - dangerously honest! ( Spelling : POCHER - DANGEROUS HONEST! ) Is a late-night show broadcast on RTL by comedian Oliver Pocher . Essentially, the presenter comments on current affairs in the show, in which his wife Amira Pocher can always be seen. It should be in a humorous way.

content

In the show, which is broadcast live on Thursday evenings, the comedian Oliver Pocher deals with current events and depicts what has mostly happened in the past week. Parodies by other celebrities are not uncommon . Due to the situation around the Corona crisis - at least in 2020 - the content is also very much geared towards this, during which the program was launched and thus takes up a considerable part of the broadcast time. Sun visited Pocher example demonstrations against the corona requirements and met in front of the Reichstag with Attila Hildmann that during the pandemic with verschwöhrungstheoretischen came views in the media.

The moderator's wife, Amira Pocher, acts as a sidekick . In addition, the program revives the Rent a Pocher format , which is now played in individual contributions during the live broadcast and is no longer broadcast as an individual program, as was previously the case with ProSieben .

Charisma

season 1

The first season of the show consisted of four episodes, the first aired on Friday evening, May 15, 2020, from the second episode on a weekly basis on Thursday evening until June 4.

season 2

Due to its success, the broadcaster decided at short notice after the four episodes of the first season to continue the format with a second season. This has also been running on Thursday evenings since June 18, 2020.

criticism

In a review of the opening episode, David Grzeschik fromquotemeter.de emphasized that the show was "extremely topical" and "seems more relevant than expected. Instead of presenting influencers like Johannes Haller or Jörn Schlönvoigt again, Pocher conspiracy theorists like Attila Hildmann. In his RTL show, Pocher shows excerpts from the latest 'Spiegel TV' episode and makes fun of those crude theories that (...) a terrifying number of people consider realistic. "

On the other hand, Pocher was heavily criticized for individual jokes or videos that he also published on his Instagram account. With sometimes sexist and racist expressions, he insulted other prominent people in Pocher's screen control format , he seemed to be targeting influencers like Anne Wünsche in particular, which no longer has anything to do with entertainment, as Theresia Enzensberger judged in a comment in Die Zeit .
