Reception

[edit]

Heidemarie Schumacher [de] cited this show as an example of B-television in her article From the True, the Good, the Beautiful to the Truly Beautiful Goods—audience identification strategies on German "B-Television" programs:[5]

The title itself encapsulates the message of 'B-TV': real people and their 'real' problems are the focus here."
