Ein Kessel Buntes
TV series
Ein Kessel Buntes
1972–2019, German, on DFF 1 & MDR Fernsehen.
The show was meant to compete with those on West German television. To this end it was fairly successful even attracting a following in parts of West Germany which could receive Eastern TV. Its production values were high. Apart from song and dance numbers and appearances from East German celebrities, almost every broadcast featured well-known stars from the west, often after their popularity had peaked in their home countries.
