Pastewka

The comedy series "Pastewka" tells stories from the everyday life of comedian Bastian Pastewka. In the fourth season of his award-winning series “PASTEWKA” on Sat 1., he once again reveals "private" glimpses into his turbulent life. His circle of family and friends is just as crazy and exciting as his job as an actor and comedian. Bastian Pastewka said this about his sitcom: “To those who ask: ‘Did all of that really happen to him?’ I would like to say: No, not everything! Only the embarrassing moments!” In 2006, “PASTEWKA” received the German Television Award (Deutscher Fernsehpreis), the German Comedy Award (Deutscher Comedypreis) and the Golden Rose from the “Rose D’Or” Television festival for these “embarrassing moments”.

Bastian’s TV addition takes the upper hand in the new season. When he tries to have a TV night instead of the camping weekend they have already planned, his girlfriend Anne (Sonsee Neu) unceremoniously throws him out. He stays with his friend Hugo Egon Balder, but has difficulty adapting to his bachelor lifestyle. Bastian finally moves into a hotel – because his relationship with Anne seems to be completely over … Neighbor Svenja Bruck (Bettina Lamprecht) wants to have a child with Bastian’s brother Hagen (Matthias Matschke). Despite their “loud attempts” night after night, she still isn't pregnant. Pastewka’s father (Dietrich Hollinderbäumer) has big plans. He wants to build a vacation home with his sons – and Bastian suspects that he will be responsible for the financing. Bastian catches his 17-year-old niece Kim (Cristina Do Rego) with marijuana. She is doing more than just smoking – she is also selling it to pay for her driver's license. Bastian’s comedian friends hear about it and want get some of the "grass" for themselves…. Bastian’s agent Regine (Sabine Vitua) is behaving stranger than ever due to her excessive alcohol consumption. Unfortunately, he needs his manager to be at her best right now – after all, he will soon be in a new film from legendary director Quentin Tarantino.
