TV reaches more people: weekly reach increased
While in the first 10 weeks of the year, the total weekly reach of all TV advertising blocks averaged 97 vs. the previous year, it initially increased drastically with the beginning of the contact ban.
In Easter week (CW 15) the reach is currently at the previous year's level, which is still above the normal development of the first weeks.
A renewed increase after the holidays is also expected.

Only the sports channels are losing due to the current situation vs. the previous year - especially n-tv and Welt are gaining enormously. Looking at the absolute reach, of course the "big" channels continue to win.

In the young segment, the order of the "winners" changes a bit. But also here, n-tv and WELT are able to gain quite a lot compared to last year. With their formats, Pro7, Sat.1, RTL and VOX achieve the highest reach in the target group.

This applies not only to the ad-free offers. Disney+, for
example, which were launched with enormous success during this crisis
phase. According to DWDL, Disney+ already reaches
more than 50 million subscribers.
The offerings of ADA and SOM (TVNOW & JOYN) also reported increased growth.
According to SevenOneMedia, JOYN, for example, shows a significant increase in usage in recent
weeks.
Especially providers like DAZN, who of course have problems
without up-to-date football content, have to suffer.
Current subscriber numbers were not available from the
provider.
And not only "classic" TV is recording growth, streaming services are also benefiting.

Program planning and production companies struggle with the impact of Corona
The regulations of the contact ban also apply to TV and film productions.
This results in different challenges for the production of the TV formats.
What are these and what could the impact be in the medium term?
-
2020
New formats emerge and in some cases disappear again quickly, information and support characterize the TV-stations’ strategies
The quarantine WG | RTL was only 3 days on air
Corona Special Trucker Babes | Kabel1 planned
Information shows about Corona are on the program every day.The Tv-stations also support the campaign #wirbliebenzuhause and have launched their own initiatives.
10 minute Berlin day and night special | RTL2 already produced

Impact on the realization / setup of the program -e.g. for shows
Influence on the type of production, the work of the production companies and editors and the effort in the background, e.g. daily soaps
Stop production of formats by Corona, e.g. time-consuming film shooting
And loss of content, e.g. football
Financial aspects e.g. through extended payment terms (see ProSiebenSat1)
Nevertheless, the impact on programmes and productions is given and also strongly depends on the type of shows
01 02 03 04
-
2222
Shows, such as "Let's Dance" or "Wer wird Millionär" on RTL are produced without an audience.
In the case of WWM this means the elimination of the audience joker.
"Germany's Next Top Mode"l is also affected, the final was postponed.
Pro7 "The Masked Singers" was discontinued because of a direct case of corona infection. Now it's on air again without any audience - the applause in the background comes from the tape.
1. Impact on the production | Shows without audience
-
2323
In talk shows, there is not only no audience, but the distance between the guests is extended to 2m.
The broadcastings | Switch by mobile phone camera from the "home office" are also increasing significantly. The show "Sendung mit der Maus", for example, is currently being produced as such.
This is not a local phenomenon, but is lived globally. US talk show hosts like Jimmy Kimmel, for example, broadcast cameras from their own homes via mobile phone and connect guests in this way.
1. Impact on the production| distance regulations and home office switches
-
2424
Due to the limited travel possibilities, the possible on-site guests are limited to local people. Nobody is flown in today.
Also the crew on site during productions has to be reduced in order to comply with the distance regulations.
Make-up artists are partly or entirely dispensed or have to wear masks and gloves.
The use of microphone fishing rods is increased, so that no personal contact is necessary to plug in the microphone.
Everything is sanitized immediately.
2. Impact on production & effort in the background| guests and crew are limited
-
2525
Where possible, the broadcasters and production companies keep the productions running.
In order not to endanger the actors, it is often necessary to change the scripts!
So kiss scenes are no longer realizable. To integrate them nevertheless, producers work with camera tricks to suggest a kiss initiation...
In order to counteract a shooting failure due to a corona infection, productions keep whole replacement teams ready in the background to pre-produce a parallel thematic strand of a show and thus enable further programming.
All this additional work also entails additional financial expenses.
2. Impact on production & effort in the background| rewriting scripts and technical tricks
-
2626
Due to a corona infection, for example, the show "Grill den Hensler" was initially discontinued.
The productions of RTL daily Soaps have also been stopped.
The music live show "DIE PASSION" planned by RTL for Easter could not be realised.
ZDF has also declared a complete stop of all in-house productions, e.g. "ZDF Fernsehgarten", but also daily soaps like "Rote Rosen".
3. Suspension of productions| corona infections & cancellations
Production stop

-
2727
The ARD has currently stopped production of the "Tatort". The production cannot be realized under the current conditions: outside shooting in public places is not possible, a distance of at least 2m cannot be guaranteed, etc.
Not only local production companies have this problem, but also large US suppliers.
The Gala of the German Television Award, "DeutscherFernsehpreis" has also been cancelled.
And "Rosin's Restaurants" was taken off air by Kabel 1 due to the current situation of the catering companies.
3. Setting of productions| complex shooting and contact ban

The above-mentioned expenditure also entails additional costs for production companies and broadcasters.
Which, as some broadcasting formats have been discontinued, can certainly continue to produce.
At the same time, ProSiebenSat.1 Media SE has extended its payment terms to 90 days, which can be problematic for some production companies, as they have to pay in advance for productions.
The good news: Pro7Sat.1 wants to give preference to smaller companies (according to DWDL) and help is to come from other sources.
However, the situation also poses a financial challenge for all market participants, which is exacerbated by the loss of advertising revenues.
4. Financial aspects | extended payment terms & additional expenditure
For more own flexibilityProSiebenSat.1 raises payment term to three months
-
2929
But what does this mean for the program?
Future and current?
Will the TV-stations be able to maintain their offer, which is so important especially in the crisis?
First good news is that so far no life-threatening diseases are known.
The second good news is that so far, the TV-stations have been able to maintain their programming as far as possible.
The produced episodes of most series will last for some time. Where they don't, they will help themselves with reruns - sometimes this is already the case. The longer the crisis lasts, the more short-term and flexible the broadcasters will have to react with their programming and resort to stock material.
Film productions, both local and global, will be cancelled for the time being. Another exciting aspect will be the final decision on how to deal with the matches of the 1st and 2nd Bundesliga. If the matches are implemented without audience participation, the TV stations will have a huge audience.
In the medium term, the loss of advertising funds for broadcasters and production companies -not only locally - will become an increasing financial threat.

03 Summary & Conclusion

Summary
The performance of the TV stations is better than it has been for a long time -the reach of the last few weeks is significantly higher than last year.
Not only small stations, news environments, children's stations, but also the big TV stations and well-known top environments are performing very well.
The hard-to-reach segment of teenagers | young adults, but also of children, is currently watching a lot of TV.In principle, this creates an opportunity for advertisers to use this reach for themselves.
TV has an important role to play in the crisis - in addition to information, television offers a refuge in distraction, a possibility for shared "campfire moments". Broadcasters and production companies are meeting the challenges in a creative way and are investing in programme maintenance and design wherever possible.
Some productions and broadcasts - such as sports and major film productions - are currently not globally viable. The additional financial challenges are being met by sharply declining advertising budgets.
-
3232
ConclusionThe longer the Corona crisis | the ban on contact continues, the greater the impact on programme diversity (no new episodes for series, no new footage...)
Increased costs combined with declining advertising revenues pose a financial threat to broadcasters and production companies.
The Corona crisis thus poses a medium-term threat to the medium TV | video, which is so important for all of us.
Advertisers who are able to use the power for their campaigns in the current situation will not only benefit from the high usage and reach, but will also support the TV landscape in its struggle in the current situation.
As an agency, we are aware that each of our clients is also struggling with individual conditions and challenges. Based on this, we develop individual recommendations for each of them.
