Stefan Raab and Elton Reunite for Prime Time Quiz Show on RTL

Stefan Raab and Elton, two of Germany's most popular television personalities, are set to reunite for a new prime time quiz show on RTL. The announcement could be made today during the RTL live show "Stefan and Bully against some random thing - The Show of Manitu."

The show, titled "Die Unzerquizbaren," will see Raab and Elton pit against different candidates, reminiscent of classic quiz duels. This is not the first time the duo will be leading a show on RTL, as they have previously worked together on various projects.

Tonight, however, Elton is leading the show alone, as he takes on the moderation of "Schlag den Star" on ProSieben in spring 2024, a role that was suddenly vacated. Raab, on the other hand, is attempting to defend the jackpot of 250,000 euros, alongside Michael Bully Herbig, in the RTL show airing tonight.

The show tonight is themed around the Wild West, fittingly appropriate to Bully's new film "Das Kanu des Manitu."

Raab's TV comeback last year was with a five-year contract with RTL. However, his show "You don't win the million here" was taken off RTL's program in May 2025 due to low ratings in linear television. This new show presents a potential new chance for Raab.

Elton, originally a sidekick on "TV total," became an independent TV personality and at times surpassed Raab in popularity. In the social networks, Elton expressed his reluctance to leave "Schlag den Star," stating he was not giving up the show voluntarily.

The planned RTL quiz show by Raab and Elton will feature them together as hosts, but the specific celebrity participants have not been publicly announced yet. The show is scheduled to start in late autumn of this year.

The new quiz show will rely on the proven chemistry between the two entertainers, making it an exciting prospect for viewers. The show will air on RTL, a German television network.
