After years of consistent success in Germany, Masters of Everyday Life is now beginning to build international traction. The long-running studio quiz format, on air since 2012, has established itself as a dependable ratings performer and is now expanding into new territories.
Produced in Germany for more than a decade, the show has already surpassed 320 episodes across 29 seasons. Its longevity reflects the strength of a simple but effective concept that continues to attract loyal viewers year after year.

The format recently achieved a key milestone with its first international adaptation in Lithuania.

The premiere episode recorded a 19.2% audience share among total viewers (A4+), ranking second in its slot, while leading the valuable A25–65 commercial demographic with a 21.4% share.

The Lithuanian debut highlights the format’s cross-border appeal. Built around questions inspired by practical, everyday situations, the show combines entertainmenwith useful knowledge. VTR segments and in-studio demonstrations add pace and visual energy, helping keep viewers engaged throughout each episode.
In its home market, the format remains a solid performer. On SWR, the show continues to rate around 25% above the average for its time slot. It also attracts more than 10% viewership on ARD through various broadcasts, underlining its continued relevance with German audiences.
