Defective effect: The entertainer should take the remaining hair away for 20 years, but it doesn’t quite work in the new show
In the first new “Stefan Raab Show” on RTL, the 58-year-old spoke about his hair care. Instead of going to the hairdresser, Raab is supposed to use a clipper from the discounter for two decades – with the results that cannot always be predicted. And it was precisely this surprise package to demonstrate at the live show.

Hairstyle broken
“I have been shing my remaining hair with such a ratz machine for 20 years,” said Raab on the show. During the broadcast, he also showed a breakdown: there was a bare strip on his head, created by a slipped attachment. The entertainer had replaced the previously damaged plastic pen with a screw. But this solution didn’t last long, the machine broke again when trying again and leaving another bald strip. The crude shaving result was then seen live on the show-including laughs.
The focus on bodybuilding
In addition to the hair anecdotes, the program was mainly about bodybuilding. Guests included the former professional bodybuilder and current internet personality Markus Rühl and Horst Lichter, who trained himself in his youth. Under the guidance of Rühl, Raab completed some exercises.
It was also shown which amounts of protein products Rühl buy in everyday life. The conclusion was a presentation of classic poses by bodybuilder Lena Ramsteiner.
The first comeback show was unsuccessful
Stefan Raab’s first comeback show after his return to RTL and RTL+, “You don’t win the million here”, was hired in June 2025 after just one season. Although the format initially received positive response and the number of RTL+subscribers: temporarily climbed on the inside, the broadcast on linear television was unable to convince. The ratings were below expectations, especially in the target group of 14- to 49-year-olds. In the last week before the deduction, only 820,000 spectators saw: the show inside. Based on these figures, the broadcaster decided to take the format out of the program.
