In Wer stiehlt mir die Show? Three celebrities and a wildcard candidate try to challenge the moderator Joko Winterscheidt for his job as quiz master. The winner can moderate the next episode and influence it according to his or her ideas.

In concrete terms, this means that in each episode three prominent candidates and a changing wildcard participant or Joko compete in games that are as funny as they are exciting to help the respective host (or perhaps a hostess as the season progresses). to steal the show.
