Host Stefan Raab features on RTL's televised program.

The third episode of the popular German talk show, "Stefan Raab Show" on RTL, has sparked conversation among viewers due to its explicit content and boundary-pushing acts.

According to RTL's reports, the episode attracted 1.22 million viewers, resulting in a 7.8% market share among viewers aged three and above. However, these numbers fell short compared to the ratings of the launch episode, which reached 14.4% (530,000 viewers) of the same demographic.

The episode, themed "Nudists," featured an act where an artist showcased his genitals in acrobatic stunts, leaving some audience members surprised and horrified. Around 20 people in the front row of the show identified themselves as "naked activists."

The explicit nature of the act and the overall theme of the episode have received mixed reactions from viewers on social media. While some found the show entertaining, others described it as a "low point" and ironically labelled it as "cultured." Some viewers have expressed disappointment that Raab, in his comeback, relies too heavily on shock effects.

Despite the controversy, the upcoming show on RTL will feature Dennis Schröder, the newly crowned basketball European champion, as a guest in the "Dennis Schröder Show." Schröder, a German professional basketball player born on September 15, 1993, in Braunschweig, is known for his speed, pick-and-roll skills, and one-on-one play. He won the 2023 World Championship and the 2025 European Championship with the German national team, being named MVP at both tournaments.

In the upcoming show, Schröder will collaborate with Stefan Raab, promising an entertaining and engaging conversation for viewers. The exact date for the show has yet to be announced.

The "Stefan Raab Show" on RTL has been known to push boundaries with its content, and the third episode is no exception. Viewers can expect more daring humour and controversial acts as the show continues its run on RTL.
