Family and fans mourn for the late artist Herbert Feuerstein († 83). WDR Director Tom Buhrow announced: “We would like to thank Herbert Feuerstein not only for ‘Schmidt One another’, a cult show that made television history and changed a lot. But also because of his witty humor, his marvelous nonsense, cleverly thought-out anarchism, and many, many very entertaining radio and television lessons. “And also:” Many times he made us laugh. Today we are sad. “
The comedian died on Tuesday in Erftstadt, near Cologne (D), as his home announcer WDR announced on Wednesday, citing Feuerstein’s wife.
Feuerstein created a cult show with Harald Schmidt
Born in Zell, Austria, Feuerstein was editor of the satirical magazine “MAD” for 20 years and in 1973 landed his first own television show on “Der Erste” with “Wild am Sonntag.”
In 1990 he followed the guessing program “Psssst …” with Harald Schmidt (63). The uneven duo soon became a cult: on the comedy show “Schmidtanders,” Feuerstein was the host’s scapegoat; incidentally, the concept of the program came from Feuerstein himself.
Herbert Feuerstein has been awarded the Grimme Prize, a Bambi and the Comedy Prize in his career. (SDA / paf)
