Oliver Pocher doubts Raab's ESC success

Focus online Oliver Pocher doubts Raab's ESC success Raab wants to give the ESC a new lease of life by using a pop star jury to find the German candidates. But Pocher doubts that this will work: "With a casting process! The ESC has changed a lot, it needs a lot more. I doubt that it will work." In contrast to RTL itself, Oliver Pocher sees Raab's TV future as bleak: "My prediction is that Raab will no longer be on RTL in a year. It's not the kind of success story that they're trying to sell us. At some point, someone at Bertelsmann who has nothing to do with entertainment but rather with calculators will ask two questions. What did it cost? How much did we earn from it? And then it will be buried."
