Comedy Mix

Comedy Mix is Switzerland's go-to for German-language humor, but it's a mixed bag. The stand-up specials are the highlight, local comedians with dry, observational style that feels distinctly Swiss, not a rehash of German or Austrian acts. Sketch shows lean absurd, sometimes too broad, but the 20:00 slot regularly delivers sharp political satire that punches above its weight for a small-market channel. Late-night imports from Germany fill the gaps; they're fine but you're here for the homegrown stuff. The schedule repeats heavily, so check the guide before tuning in. Production varies, some specials look like they were shot in a community hall, others have proper lighting and laugh tracks. The comedy panel shows are where the channel finds its rhythm: four comics, a loose topic, and quick-fire gags in Swiss German that non-locals might miss but reward attentive listening. Advertising is minimal during comedy blocks, which keeps the flow intact. If you want to understand Swiss humor or just need a break from American stand-up, Comedy Mix is worth the stream. Don't expect polished Netflix specials, expect charm and a few belly laughs.
