Rüdiger Hoffmann (born March 30, 1964, in Paderborn) is a German cabaret artist and musician. Rüdiger Hoffmann began performing in music and theater while still in school; among other activities, he was a member of the cabaret group "Die Pappnasen" alongside Ralf Kabelka. After dropping out of a degree program in music education, he initially performed on smaller stages before achieving nationwide fame in the early 1990s through appearances at the *Quatsch Comedy Club* and on the comedy series *RTL Samstag Nacht*. Hoffmann's trademarks include his calm, slow manner of speaking, his dry humor, and his famous opening line: "Ja, hallo erst mal!" (Well, hello there!). A chair is also frequently a fixture of his stage setup, and he occasionally accompanies himself on the piano. In 1995, he performed as the opening act for The Rolling Stones' *Voodoo Lounge Tour*. On the big screen, he appeared—among other roles—as the Magic Mirror in the comedies *7 Zwerge – Männer allein im Wald* and *7 Zwerge – Der Wald ist nicht genug*. Alongside his comedy career, Hoffmann released his own music album in 2007 titled *Sex oder Liebe*, which blends elements of pop and rock. In 2010, he presented the stage show *Das Beste aus 25 Jahren* (The Best of 25 Years) at Circus Roncalli; the performance was later released on DVD. Hoffmann lives in Bonn and is married with one son. Where to watch the TV shows and films of Rüdiger Hoffmann free? Click the title of the series or movies below to watch them in HD for free on SFlix.
