Kaiserwetter, Kaisermania, Kaiserquoten: This year's broadcast of the last of the four "Kaisermania" concerts on the banks of the Elbe in Dresden once again brought MDR television good ratings. On average, 1.24 million people across Germany watched Roland Kaiser (72) sing on Saturday from 8.15 pm - despite strong competition on television, such as the ratings-generating Olympic broadcasts.
Kaiser brought MDR "an average market share of 6.2 percent over the hours", reported the industry service "DWDL.de" on Sunday. "Kaisermania" also achieved clearly above-average results among 14 to 49-year-olds. A market share of 3.3 percent was generated here."
In 2023, the "Kaisermania" broadcast reached almost 1.8 million viewers - at that time, SWR television also broadcast in parallel. This time, only MDR was on again. In 2022, an average of around 1.8 million people also watched on MDR television.
