'''''Schlag den Raab''''' ({{IPA-de|ʃlaːk deːn ʁaːp}}, [[German language|German]] for ''Beat (the) Raab'') is a [[Live television|live]] [[game show]] that was televised by the German television channel [[ProSieben]] on Saturday evenings from September 2006 until December 2015. A total of six episodes were produced and broadcast each year and featured one contestant competing with media personality [[Stefan Raab]] in a number of disciplines for a variable amount of money.

At the beginning of an episode five possible candidates (usually four men and one woman) were introduced to the audience. Each candidate presented him- or herself in a short video clip of one minute (three minutes before the 45th episode). The TV audience then determined the person to compete with Stefan Raab by [[televoting]]. One episode consisted of up to fifteen games between Raab and the contestant plus one tiebreaker game if the scoreline was even after the fifteenth game. Each episode consecutively won by Raab added €500,000 to the jackpot, e.g. the prize money in an episode following three consecutive Raab victories summed up to €2,000,000. A losing contestant did not receive any prize money at all, regardless of the final scoreline.
At the beginning of an episode five possible candidates (usually four men and one woman) were introduced to the audience. Each candidate presented him- or herself in a short video clip of one minute (three minutes before the 45th episode). The TV audience then determined the person to compete with Stefan Raab by [[televoting]]. One episode consisted of up to 15 games between Raab and the contestant plus one tiebreaker game if the scoreline was even after the fifteenth game. Each episode consecutively won by Raab added €500,000 to the jackpot, e.g. the prize money in an episode following three consecutive Raab victories summed up to €2,000,000. A losing contestant did not receive any prize money at all, regardless of the final scoreline.


The games included sports contests such as [[biathlon]], [[go-kart]]ing, [[badminton]] and [[ice hockey]], puzzles, quizzes and various other challenges, each episode featuring different games than the ones before, except for one quiz called ''Blamieren oder Kassieren'', which appeared in almost every episode. The majority of games were played in the studio, a few games had to be carried out outside (like the aforementioned biathlon contest or riding a speed boat in the Cologne harbor). The first game awarded one point, the second game two points and up to fifteen points for the fifteenth game. The show ended once Raab or his opponent gained more than 60 of the possible 120 points. Therefore, the earliest point to win an episode was after completion of the eleventh game (1+2+3+4+5+6+7+8+9+10+11=66). Due to this extraordinary distribution of points it was possible to win an episode despite losing the majority of games, e.g. if one was successful the final five games (11+12+13+14+15=65) while the opponent was successful in the first ten games (1+2+3+4+5+6+7+8+9+10=55).

Six episodes of ''Schlag den Raab'' were broadcast each year, three in the first half of the year and another three in the second half of the year. The last episode aired on 19 December 2015. For this last episode, each of fifteen contestants faced Raab in one game. Each contestant who managed to defeat Raab received €100,000 from the €1.5 million prize fund and moved on to a final game. For the final game, all of the contestants who had beaten Raab played against each other for the remaining money. Six contestants beat Raab in their games, so that the winner of the final game received an additional €900,000.

As the show was broadcast live and the games were of different duration, a single episode generally had no fixed time limit. It regularly ran for four or more hours including commercials. The very first episode ended just after midnight at 00:01 after a runtime of three hours and 46 minutes and was therefore the shortest episode. The 49th and longest episode ended at 02:23,<ref name="RingingTheBullBild"/><ref name="Xonik15Nov2014"/> which equals a runtime of six hours and eight minutes.<ref name="Express0223">{{cite web|url=http://www.express.de/promi-show/herzschlag-finale-bei--schlag-den-raab--nach-368-minuten--kandidat-peter-schlaegt-stefan-raab-und-holt-sich-2-5-millionen,2186,29057342.html|title=Nach 368 Minuten!

Raab won 38 of the 54 episodes, not counting the final episode in which Raab faced multiple opponents. He was first defeated in the third episode, when contestant Matthias Göbel won €1.5 million. The highest amount won by a single contestant was €3.5 million (Bernd Stadelmann on 15 December 2012). On three occasions an episode ended after just eleven games – each time Raab being the winner. The fastest candidate to beat Raab was Deaon Maxwell (episode 27) after 12 games. Two candidates, one female and one male, were defeated without scoring a single point. Until 25 April 2015 no woman had defeated Raab.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.stern.de/kultur/tv/schlag-den-raab-diese-frau-hat-den-stefan-raab-fluch-gebrochen-2189876.html|title=Das ist die Frau, die den Fluch gebrochen hat|work=[[Stern (magazine)|Stern]]|date=26 April 2015|accessdate=29 April 2015|language=German}}</ref>

All candidates except Jan May (episode 12) were younger than Raab on the date of the episode. On 1 November 2014 the episode had to be postponed for the first time in the history of the show, as Raab was suffering from a [[Common cold|severe cold]].<ref name="Welt-krank">{{cite web|url=https://www.welt.de/vermischtes/article133880174/Grippe-schlaegt-Stefan-Raab-Show-faellt-aus.html|title=Grippe schlägt Stefan Raab – Show fällt aus|first=Carsten|last=Rave|work=[[Die Welt]]|date=1 November 2014|accessdate=16 November 2014|language=German}}</ref> That episode eventually aired a fortnight later, on 15 November 2014.<ref name="RingingTheBullBild">{{cite web|url=http://www.bild.de/unterhaltung/tv/schlag-den-raab/dieses-kneipenspiel-brachte-raab-zur-verzweiflung-38588596.bild.html|title=Dieses Kneipenspiel brachte Raab zur Verzweiflung|work=[[Bild]]|date=16 November 2014|accessdate=16 November 2014|language=German}}</ref><ref name="Xonik15Nov2014">{{cite web|url=http://xonik.de/tv/einschaltquoten-am-15-11-2014-schlag-den-raab-boxen-und-supertalent-218|title=Einschaltquoten am 15.11.2014: Schlag den Raab, Boxen und Supertalent im Quotencheck|first=Paul|last=Stelzer|work=xonik.de|date=16 November 2014|accessdate=16 November 2014|language=German}}</ref>

Beat the Star

Schlag den Raab (German pronunciation: [ʃlaːk deːn ʁaːp], German for Beat (the) Raab) was a live game show that was televised by German television channel ProSieben on Saturday evenings from September 2006 until December 2015. A total of six episodes were produced and broadcast each year and featured one contestant competing with media personality Stefan Raab in a number of disciplines for a variable amount of money.

Concept

[edit]

At the beginning of an episode five possible candidates (usually four men and one woman) were introduced to the audience. Each candidate presented him- or herself in a short video clip of one minute (three minutes before the 45th episode). The TV audience then determined the person to compete with Stefan Raab by televoting. One episode consisted of up to 15 games between Raab and the contestant plus one tiebreaker game if the scoreline was even after the fifteenth game. Each episode consecutively won by Raab added €500,000 to the jackpot, e.g. the prize money in an episode following three consecutive Raab victories summed up to €2,000,000. A losing contestant did not receive any prize money at all, regardless of the final scoreline.

The games included sports contests such as biathlon, go-karting, badminton and ice hockey, puzzles, quizzes and various other challenges, each episode featuring different games than the ones before, except for one quiz called Blamieren oder Kassieren, which appeared in almost every episode. The majority of games were played in the studio, a few games had to be carried out outside (like the aforementioned biathlon contest or riding a speed boat in the Cologne harbor). The first game awarded one point, the second game two points and up to fifteen points for the fifteenth game. The show ended once Raab or his opponent gained more than 60 of the possible 120 points. Therefore, the earliest point to win an episode was after completion of the eleventh game (1+2+3+4+5+6+7+8+9+10+11=66). Due to this extraordinary distribution of points it was possible to win an episode despite losing the majority of games, e.g. if one was successful the final five games (11+12+13+14+15=65) while the opponent was successful in the first ten games (1+2+3+4+5+6+7+8+9+10=55).

Six episodes of Schlag den Raab were broadcast each year, three in the first half of the year and another three in the second half of the year. The last episode aired on 19 December 2015. For this last episode, each of fifteen contestants faced Raab in one game. Each contestant who managed to defeat Raab received €100,000 from the €1.5 million prize fund and moved on to a final game. For the final game, all of the contestants who had beaten Raab played against each other for the remaining money. Six contestants beat Raab in their games, so that the winner of the final game received an additional €900,000.

Each episode also featured up to four music artists.

History

[edit]

As the show was broadcast live and the games were of different duration, a single episode generally had no fixed time limit. It regularly ran for four or more hours including commercials. The very first episode ended just after midnight at 00:01 after a runtime of three hours and 46 minutes and was therefore the shortest episode. The 49th and longest episode ended at 02:23,[1][2] which equals a runtime of six hours and eight minutes.[3]

Raab won 38 of the 54 episodes, not counting the final episode in which Raab faced multiple opponents. He was first defeated in the third episode, when contestant Matthias Göbel won €1.5 million. The highest amount won by a single contestant was €3.5 million (Bernd Stadelmann on 15 December 2012). On three occasions an episode ended after just eleven games – each time Raab being the winner. The fastest candidate to beat Raab was Deaon Maxwell (episode 27) after 12 games. Two candidates, one female and one male, were defeated without scoring a single point. Until 25 April 2015 no woman had defeated Raab.[4]

All candidates except Jan May (episode 12) were younger than Raab on the date of the episode. On 1 November 2014, the episode had to be postponed for the first time in the history of the show, as Raab was suffering from a severe cold.[5] That episode eventually aired a fortnight later, on 15 November 2014.[1][2]

In June 2015, Raab announced his retirement from television, which ultimately led to the show's cancellation in the same year. The last episode aired on 19 December 2015.

Schlag den Raab was one of the most successful Saturday evening shows in Germany in the late 2000s and early 2010s with audiences of up to four million people.

Awards

[edit]

The show was nominated for the Adolf Grimme Awards category entertainment/special in 2007 and 2008.[6] Schlag den Raab won the Deutscher Fernsehpreis for Best Entertainment Show in 2007,[7] and won a Goldene Kamera in the category Entertainment in 2008.[8]
