Life's a Partaaay: Marianne and Michael Seek Some Private Time
Marianne and Michael, once the epitome of hosting prowess on their long-running music shows "Superhitparade der Volksmusik" and "Lustige Musikanten," folded up their microphones last year. Completing a spectacular public career, they celebrated their final appearance at Oktoberfest.

Over a decade, they raised an impressive 725,000 euros, which they distributed among 91 charities and clubs. "All that's left is just sheer happiness, fun, joy – born out of a successful run," Michael Hartl told "Brisant" during the final charity golf tournament.
