Another big splash for The Quiz with Balls: Talpa Studios' hit show travels to Germany! #TheQuizwithBalls, is set to entertain the German viewers this summer. RTL Germany has ordered the fun game show that was produced by Cheerio Entertainment at the local production hub in the Netherlands. For the German version, titled #Splash, contestants must work together as a team and answer questions, but each wrong answer gets you knocked into a swimming pool by a massive ball. Teams accumulate prize money as long as they manage to avoid getting soaked. In the end one player will battle it out in the final round for a substantial cash reward. Two celebrity specials have been recorded to get the show off to an exciting start this summer. Splash is set to air on RTL on July 24. Sebastian van Barneveld, Director of Global Distribution at #TalpaStudios: “This format was a breakout surprise hit for SBS6 in the Netherlands in 2023. We're thrilled that it's being picked up in countries like USA, Spain and now Germany. The German celebrity edition promises to add even more excitement and possibilities to the format.” Last summer, Talpa Studios’ The Quiz with Balls completely turned the tables on prime time. The ratings skyrocketed and SBS6 ordered a four-episode winter special and a second season. The format soon made its way across the pond with a local adaptation in the USA on FOX, where it’s gaining fans each week. The Spanish adaptation Juego de Pelotas for Antena 3 has just been recorded in Talpa Studios’ local production hub in the Netherlands.

We're very proud to announce a collaboration with the nation’s biggest artists for the brand-new talent show #TheHeadliner. In The Headliner, two famous coaching duos – big performing artists themselves - face off in a nationwide search for the next festival superstar. The stakes are high: the winning talent will perform at the exclusive concert series 'De Vrienden van Amstel LIVE' alongside some of the biggest names in the entertainment industry. A prize money can’t buy. On an iconic moving stage, the talents must give their all to prove that they have what it takes to electrify the crowd. It’s crucial to keep the audience and coaches captivated continuously because during their performance, the stage rises with sufficient votes and descends if votes fall short. The Headliner will be produced by Talpa Studios and is set to premiere in primetime on RTL4 in 2025. Sebastian van Barneveld, Director of International Distribution at #TalpaStudios, is thrilled: “This groundbreaking format blends Talpa Studios' extensive talent show heritage with the remarkable expertise of four of our most iconic performing artists. We are confident that this extraordinary combination will not only uncover Holland's next great performer but also deliver a spectacular and thrilling journey for both the talents and viewers. The Headliner is where talent show competition meets concert arena energy!” The coaching duos consist of artists Nick Schilder & Typhoon, and Jacqueline Govaert & Kraantje Pappie. Along with other professionals from the music industry, they will help viewers choose the next live sensation in the Netherlands. Unlike other talent shows, The Headliner is not just about the best voice. It’s about the complete entertainment package: the ability to captivate the audience and bring the house down. The talents will join one of the two coaching teams and will compete for a coveted spot in the finals. They go through various phases where they must convince not only the coaches but also the audience, ticket buyers, bookers, and venue owners of their talent. The Headliner is a co-creation of Talpa Studios and artists Jacqueline Govaert, Kraantje Pappie, Nick Schilder, Typhoon, and concert organizer Machiel Hofman.
