Neo Magazin Royale is a German satirical late-night talk show hosted by Jan Böhmermann.

[1] Originally called Neo Magazin, the suffix Royale was added starting with the broadcast on 5 February 2015.

Since then, the show has been produced in a larger studio and Böhmermann is supported by a live band fronted by rapper Dendemann.

[citation needed] Neo Magazin Royale opens with a musical intro, which is followed by Böhmermann presenting the hashtag of the week and doing a comedy monologue on current events.

The show is made up of recurring segments that are either in-studio pieces moderated by Böhmermann (which occasionally incorporate the audience) or are specially produced films.

Sometimes the show is headlined by a main topic, which is a deep dive on a social or political issue in the style of Last Week Tonight.

The show has featured original songs, some of which under the pseudonym "POL1Z1STENS0HN" about Böhmermann's "thug life" being a policeman's son, mocking German gangsta rap.

The title of the segment is a parody of "Rhythm Is a Dancer" by Snap!, also using the chorus as a jingle and alluding to the NSA program PRISM, which became popular by the global surveillance disclosures in 2013.

Böhmermann first introduces the ASCII character of the week, followed by a top 5 ranking of various topics on the Internet (for example, the five best animated GIF images or the five most popular Wi-Fi names).

In addition, a male and female public viewer will be shown, who allegedly carry the latest "look" from Mitte, which is commented by Böhmermann.

Examples include a Bobby Car, taped to the back, as a Transformers costume or a tampon, stapled to a sanitary napkin, as a butterfly.

Hans Meiser (former German TV host) as a "little man" in the sharpener on Böhmermann's desk discusses current topics with him.

Four older, upper-middle-class actors perform real discussions from the internet (such as YouTube comments) sitting in an antique castle room.

Böhmermann commented objectively, but with an ironic and sarcastic undertone, the work of a person with reference to a topical subject.

These representations show thematically fitting pictures of the named persons or facts, which complement or deliberately contradict Böhmermann's commentary.

According to the motto "We have the ideas, they have the quota", an attempt is made to introduce videos produced or altered by the team of the Neo Magazine Royale into other broadcasts so that they do not recognize the true source.

William Cohn wants to explore the television world far from the Neo magazine Royale and is a guest in various programs.

The humor results from the crude answers Zinis, which Böhmermann extravagantly offended as fancy and reveal a strongly polemic right-wing radical background.

It will be exaggeratedly dramatized everyday operations behind the scenes of the show shown, with Will the theme exclusively criticizes the Neo magazine Royale sets out.

Böhmermann's sidekick Ralf Kabelka solve crime cases like the German children's radio play series TKKG.

These segments can only be accessed in the media library of ZDF and on YouTube (called "web exclusive") and are not part of the actual program.

"[5] The filming of the 14 April edition of Neo Magazin Royale was cancelled due to "massive media reporting and the focus on the programme and the presenter".

[5] On 16 April Böhmermann himself announced he would be taking a four-week break from TV and radio work, which was confirmed by his broadcaster, ZDF.

[7] His guest in the episode was The Left politician Gregor Gysi, who said that he disliked the poem because "it serves every prejudice", but strongly criticized Erdogan for his policies against the Kurds and the press.

[7] In early 2017, the similar Dutch satirical late-night talkshow Zondag met Lubach video "The Netherlands welcomes Trump in his own words" that ridiculed U.S. President Donald Trump, whilst also using self-mockery, went viral and was viewed more than 73 million times worldwide.
