It sounded too good. The vocal rate show “The Masked Singer” was supposed to be “more compact” and “shorter” this season. Prosieben boss Daniel Rosemann had announced that in a press conference, because: “For some viewers, their favorite show was too long for a Tuesday evening because they have to get up early the next morning.” A good thought, because that's why there was always criticism (and lots of jokes about too long commercial breaks on Twitter). Anyone who hoped to be able to comfortably go to bed after the show at 10:15 p.m. will be disappointed. The new show ends at 11.20 p.m., just 20 minutes earlier than before. For those who still do not (want to) look through three hours, we offer the "The Masked Singer" sleep service. So you can jump straight to the point and time in the text when you dozed off.
8:17 p.m.: Matthias Opdenhövel, who moderates the show as always, makes you want to ... the end of the season ?!
“Then it's spring.” Is this a twisted psychology or can't he wait for it himself?
8:18 p.m.: Ruth Moschner is back on the rate team, with Rea Garvey at her side in every program.
He apologized for his misstep last season when he said to Vicky Leandros, who was still masked, that there was no way she could be Vicky Leandros - she sings better.
"That leads to a lot of caution this season," says Garvey.
Remember these words until the chick appears (8.49 p.m.)!

8:20 p.m.: It starts, the first new costume is a teenage dinosaur with braces and pajamas.
You can still understand the latter, like today's guest Carolin Kebekus: "It's Corona, right?" But patience with the dinosaur decreases rapidly when it not only speaks in several voices, but also sings.
How are you supposed to recognize anything?
8:31 pm: On to the next mask, a glittering leopard with a monocle.
Who initially looks male, but turns out to be a woman who sings damn well.
And who could that be now?
Kebekus has an interesting theory: “It's like smelling a cucumber.
You know that, but you don't know it's cucumber because you can't see the cucumber. ”Without ever smelling the leopard: There are no bland vegetables in this costume that you have to throw in gin and tonic to make them great to find.
8.45 p.m.: The chick - a fluffy, blue ball - immediately causes controversy.
On Twitter, half of the commentators think it's “cute”, the other half find it annoying, because: Even the chick disguises its voice so funny.
By the way, we owe that to Veronica Ferres, who started last season by not singing with her real voice.

8.49 p.m.: Now the time has come, Rea Garvey knocks one out again.
"Every season there is someone that you don't want to see," he says to the chick.
All we can do now is hope that the costume is neither his mother nor his wife or any other person he even remotely knows.

9:02 p.m.: The flamingo confused.
Why does he speak with a Spanish accent?
Which crazy person decided that dancers would drive across the stage with walkers behind him?
And why does Ruth Moschner "hope" that the bird is a man ?!
This show has been over gender costume stereotypes since Nelson Müller in a ballerina tutu.
9:07 p.m .: Karolin Kebekus sums up all politically incorrect man-woman-flamingo thoughts wonderfully: “The voice raises questions.
For example: who is that? "

9:13 p.m.: Now it's the monstronaut's turn - the child of the little monster and the astronaut, two costumes from previous seasons.
Apparently the masks are already having sex with each other and having offspring ?!
We would have liked to have done without these images in our heads.
Incidentally, Matthias Opdenhövel also found the monster very attractive for a while.
You don't even want to imagine that it almost came to the "monstrous level" - a pink-haired glasses wearer with ambitions to present.
9:18 pm: Rea Garvey thinks that the monstronaut is wonderfully "cheeky" and could therefore be Thore Schölermann.
Whereby “cheeky” here means that the monstronaut bumps into cameras and nudges fellow soldiers.
In short: Does Garvey find Schölermann just extremely annoying?
9.41 p.m.: The references to the characters are no longer properly recognizable.
So what does the Taurus remember?
His huge, shimmering testicle protection.
And Ruth Moschner's tip: “That's Thomas Gottschalk.” We don't know how she gets from one to the other.
10:01 p.m.: There's a unicorn, with a magic wand and a glittering heart on its nose!
What a childhood dream!
It's just stupid that those at 10:01 p.m. are no longer part of the core audience.
10:06 p.m.: In any case, Ruth Moschner concluded from some evidence that the unicorn likes to "sniff the dark sides of life".
It could therefore be Jenny Elvers.
Well, nobody in this branch forgets that you liked to “sniff” vodka bottles.
10:11 p.m.: So, our favorite costume is determined.
It is the cheerful Quokka animal in a golden DJ outfit that sings "I can't get no sleep" - the unofficial anthem for the supposedly oh-so-compact “The Masked Singer” show.
10:28 p.m.: The pig got all the props that were left: umbrella hat, sugar chain and sponge microphone.
His character is somewhere between the cartoon character Peppa Pig (loves mud puddles) and Marie Kondo (loves order and cleanliness).
Absolutely nothing can be inferred from all this.
But maybe from the fact that Matthias Opdenhövel calls it "Merkelchen", oh no, "Piglet"?
No, of course we're not getting caught up in the crazy conspiracy theory that the Chancellor is singing along here!
OR DOES IT?

10:48 p.m.: And because it's so much fun, here is a funny theory by Ruth Moschner about the turtle: Couldn't that be Florian Silbereisen?
Yes, the step from the “dream ship” captain to the Jack Sparrow blend with overgrown mussels is not that big either.
11.20 p.m.: Oh no, the pig of all people has to take off his mask.
Probably only because now everyone wants to know whether this is Angela Merkel.
No, it's not - but sports presenter Katrin Müller-Hohenstein is also a small sensation.
Do you remember last season? A man, the cook Nelson Müller, was hiding in a ballerina costume. Surprises like this make “The Masked Singer” worth seeing, right? On Instagram we will keep you up to date on the show this season too!
