Endemol Shine’s The Big Music Quiz to Get German Version

AMSTERDAM/COLOGNE: Endemol Shine Group has sold The Big Music Quiz into Germany, marking the third territory deal for the format.

Endemol Shine Germany will produce a first season of the musical game show, which sees celebrity contestants take on inventive musical challenges. The six-part series will launch in prime time on RTL Germany this fall.

The format was created by Shine France and Ardisson & Lumières. It originally premiered on TF1 and launched on Channel Seven in Australia earlier this week.

Lisa Perrin, CEO of creative networks at Endemol Shine Group, said, “The Big Music Quiz is a next-generation musical game show, packed with celebrities, music trivia and a huge play-along factor. The format is on a roll with fantastic ratings in France and Australia and this latest deal in Germany, where we think audiences will be equally enthralled.”

Marcus Wolter, CEO of Endemol Shine Germany, added, “The Big Music Quiz is a fast-paced entertainment game show with broad audience appeal. We are thrilled to be the third territory to pick up the series and look forward to our autumn launch.”
