“Bachelorette”: RTL excludes Melissa from the program – what’s behind it

Wednesday RTL removes “Bachelorette” from the program: this is why

Melissa is currently looking for her dream man as a bachelorette party on TV. She’s already sent home a few men in recent episodes, including alleged favorite Maurice. Somehow it doesn’t really pop after the first few episodes. And the spark doesn’t even seem to have exploded with the audience. There is still no general hen party euphoria.

This is also reflected in the quotas. On Wednesday, only 1.66 million viewers tuned in to watch Melissa flirt – this corresponds to a market share of 10.6 percent in the target group of young people aged 14 to 49. The worst rate of all time for the format, as reported by “dwdl.de”.

Is this also the reason RTL canceled “The Bachelorette” from the program Wednesday? No do not worry! Even though the show is still a bit like chewing gum, the station sticks to the format for prime time. Just not this week. However, there is a very simple reason for this.

“Bachelorette” fans have to do without the dome show

The “bachelorette party” must give way to a sporting event this week. RTL will broadcast the German national team’s friendly against the Czech Republic on Wednesday.

Fans were also disappointed with TVNow. The new episode obviously wasn’t shown there in advance. However, if you’ve paid for access to the streaming portal, you can sit in front of your computer on Wednesday night and admire Melissa and her hungry men. Because on November 11, the new episode will be published, which will be broadcast only on November 18.

Incidentally, “Bachelorette” fans have already looked into the tube several times this season. The start of the show has already been postponed by 15 minutes due to two special Corona broadcasts.
