Freitag Nacht News

Well, German humor has often been criticised, but here they've brought a masterpiece of a News show onto the Screen. The show, a deliberate takeoff of News Items, Politicians and famous people generally, is shown every week, and the three news readers (Henry Gründler, Volker G. Schmitz and Ruth Moschner) bring Hilarity to the Headlines. Some of the favorites in recent episodes have been "Linderstraße Ecke Sesamstraße" (a clever mixture between a German Soap and Sesame Street), and the weekly death of Gert Logan, the Kamikaze Reporter. The only people who might find the show insulting are the celebrities who are being insulted . Great show.
