ProSieben schedule changes 2026

Entities: Matthias Opdenhövel · The Voice of Germany · ProSiebenSat.1 Media SE · Melissa Khalaj · Quotenmeter

Overview

In August 2026 ProSieben announced a reshuffle of its primetime music‑competition lineup. The new season of "The Voice of Germany" will debut on 11 September and will be broadcast on Saturday nights, ending its long‑standing Thursday slot. The coaching panel and hosts remain largely unchanged, while ancillary formats such as "The Voice Stories" are being dropped.

At the same time the network moved "The Masked Singer" from its traditional Saturday evening slot to Wednesdays at 20:15, citing a prolonged decline in viewership. The 13th season will begin on 16 September, with episodes now pre‑recorded and the after‑show removed. A new comedy series will occupy the post‑show slot.

Both changes reflect ProSieben’s effort to revitalize its reality‑music offerings amid slipping ratings.
