Reviews range from "refreshing" to "cringeworthy"
The big Beartrice Egli TV show polarizes viewers.
The Christmas edition was hotly debated on X. Some praised the format, others couldn't get into it at all.
User PikAss Deutschland wrote: "It's precisely this authenticity that makes the show so special. Totally likeable and really well done."
User Conny K. also finds words of praise and writes, among other things, "very refreshing."
Other TV viewers, however, sharply criticize the show.
Quitsche Mucke criticizes on X: "I've never watched the Beatrice Egli Show, I really thought Giovanni Zarrella was over the top, but this is just cringe at its best ..."
Mini mishap in TV show
A brief moment in the "Beatrice Egli Show" caused irritation: after his performance, rock star Chris Norman asked audibly to everyone "Is my microphone on?". The unplanned interjection not only took Beatrice Egli by surprise, but is also likely to have caused confusion among the audience.
As usual, Beatrice Egli played over the small mishap with aplomb and skilfully continued to host the show.
