Saturday night's prime-time viewing was dominated by the crime drama "Friesland" on ZDF, leaving its competitors in the dust. With an impressive 6.37 million viewers tuning in, the episode "Feuerteufel" secured a remarkable 23.6% market share. This outperformance was no fluke, as it outshone the ARD game show "Klein gegen Groß - Das unglaubliche Duell" which drew in 4.51 million viewers (18.1%).

The scene was not much different for RTL's "Denn sie wissen nicht, was passiert - Schöne Bescherung - Die große Weihnachtsshow," "RTLzwei and the US comedy 'Schöne Bescherung'," and ProSieben's "The Masked Singer" finale, each managing to capture only a fraction of the audience's attention.

Sat.1's action film "Die Hard" attracted 1.42 million viewers (5.5%), while Vox and the film "Ein Junge namens Weihnacht" could only muster 1.04 million (3.9%). Kabel eins, with "FBI: Special Crime Unit," managed a mere 0.59 million viewers (2.2%) from 8.15 p.m.

While German football team's 'Odds victory' may have created a buzz, "Friesland" managed to maintain its popularity, showcasing its enduring appeal among viewers. In fact, TV stations in Berlin are capitalizing on this success, scheduling reruns of popular episodes of the series, hoping to ignite the viewer's enthusiasm.

As the curtain falls on "The Crown," another highly-regarded TV show, the hunger for gripping entertainment continues unabated. Crimes thrillers, a staple in German television, continue to enjoy a massive following.

Though the data for "Friesland: Klootschießen" is not included in the given data, it is safe to assume that ZDF's crime dramas consistently pull in a strong audience, thanks to their mix of suspense, intrigue, and local charm.

Sources and Enrichment: - - The "Wilsberg" series and "Lillys Verschwinden" ratings, two other ZDF crime thrillers, are also provided in the data. These ratings suggest that ZDF's crime thrillers typically enjoy significant viewership, even if the data for "Friesland: Klootschießen" is not explicitly mentioned.
