Cologne – What kind of theater? Which is quite entertaining! The older ones will remember it. Theaterstadl by Peter Steiner (†81), Willy Millowitsch (†90) with the Cologne stage adaptation for television, or Heidi Kabel (†95) with the Ohnsorg show. Was that all yesterday’s news on TV? Absolutely not!
Thanks to ARD’s bold concept “Tödliches Spiel – Das Straight crime dinnerA touch of nostalgia, dotted with stars and unprecedented efforts behind the scenes, wafted through the living room on Saturday night.
BILD analysis of the TV premiere!
In “Deadly Game – The Live Crime Dinner,” the hero of “Tatort” Jan Josef Liefers (61, right) is only allowed to play and not investigate himself. Dinner star characters Uwe Ochsenknecht (69) and Verena Altenberger (38) do not see the end of the lavishly staged family celebration…
A live murder hunt in prime time – prime time for guessing and riddles. Succeed! With an average of around four million viewers, the majority of viewers are watching it anyway Axel Prahl (65), Jan Josef Liefers and guest stars Bill Kaulitz led through the spectacle of evil.
Very squeaky: Bill Kaulitz (36) jumped out of the cake with a bang and then handed out champagne to the team
Of course there was a problem: not all of the improvised jokes were captured accurately by one of the many cameras. But overall the idea is open Degeto And Constantine Entertainment new door. Just try it? Good this way!
Viewers are at their best on social media
And audience comments on social media paralleling the event from the Cologne TV studio had almost as much entertainment value as the dinner itself.
Join in the fun, complain, roll your eyes, rejoice…

The interactive accompaniment is reminiscent of a live broadcast “Excitement”with which RTL has entertained some audiences twice (in 2022 and 2024) and left others in despair.
“Deadly Game – The Live Crime Dinner” dares to take a step away from the meticulously planned process and endless shots until the perfect scene is achieved. Just let the professionals do it. Freezer and his partner can do just that.

It was Bill Kaulitz who caught the eye
The trick of integrating Tokio Hotel star Bill Kaulitz into the set was very well received. He jumps out of the cake, handing out drinks and collecting sympathy points. User X: “I don’t think Kaulitz had any captions. He just said something and drank champagne.”
