I grew up and went to university in the times of Gottschalk's and Schmidt's Late Night Shows in Germany. Watching this movie 15 years after it was produced still left me entertained. German private TV and media of the 90s well-observed, some brilliant acting. Even Gottschalk manages, though he basically plays himself. Yeah, and Dietl absolutely wanted to have his girlfriend Ferres in all of his movies. He could/should have done without. Who really convinced me was Harald Schmidt, who is actually an educated actor. I loved his cynical TV show and it is just great to see this cynic overacting as a cynic pulling strings. The scene where he loses control of his face when he consoles Engel's stalker nearly made me fall off the couch. I also liked the roles of Jasmin Tabatabai, Dieter Pfaff and Olli Dittrich. And it was good to see Helmut Zerlett and his band on the show again!
