    The 'Night Loop' is a decades-long staple at the KIKA and used as filler for when there's no actual program to be aired (for the reason you guessed: children asleep). The KIKA once used different snippets from the shows featuring Bernd as a replacement for the 'not on air' signal,as they didn't share the channel with another program that would complement their airing. And after some time, buzzed young adults, returning from the clubs at or around midnight got a kick out of plopping in front of the TV and just drunk-watching the depressed bread. Ever since then, KIKA changes the loop once a month or so. And even started producing exclusive 'Night Loops', rather targeting drunk adults than kids, about 10ish years ago.

    "Bernd das Brot" was one of the biggest culture shocks for me when my family moved to Austria in the late 90's. I was a lonely 5-year-old with persisting sleep disturbances in a foreign land on the other side of the world. Sometimes, when zapping between channels late at night, I would see this sinister-looking, depressing loaf of bread talking in a language I didn't understand and it made me _so_ upset, lol. At almost 30, I can fully appreciate its dry, absurdist humor (as I'm into much weirder, darker comedy now) but I still can't shake off the anxiety I felt as a child. It would be cool to see more Bernd reactions from you.

    I loved Bernd das Brot when I was still in uni roughly 30 years ago. It was absolutely ultra-level sarcastic watching already running gags being twisted into new versions of themselves. It all began with Bernd being stuck in white hell screen, where he left on one side of the screen just to pop in back on the other side. No matter which direction he took, he always returned to the white hell of nothing. This got twisted into so many variations over the years that it became a game of "Have you seen what they did to Bernd last night?" on the next day. That he is basically a loaf of bread with far too short arms, really just hands stuck to the body, exacerbates several situations. Bernd got more and more cynical each and every time, and his trademark, short, quipped "Mist!" / "Crap!" became a standard meme to anything you even marginally disliked, long before the term meme was even first mentioned.

    Ok, here's some background info nobody asked for. The co-inventor of Bernd is a German comedian, author, producer, film maker and multi talent called Tommy Krappweis. It's also his voice that narrates the show. He is a lifelong nerd himself (you guessed it) and has been a regular guest at several fan conventions in Germany for decades (sorry Tommy, I did not want to imply that you're old). The guests at Bernds nerd party are cosplayers he met at these conventions. It's so weird to see all these people I know on TV. Also, there's ton of inside jokes that nobody, who wasn't present, understands. It cracks me up every time. Also, there is another Bernd das Brot night loop about Hitler that is even weirder and more awesome if you want to check it out.

    The topics rarely relate to him being a bread, he's basically just a depressed and bitter person in a bread-body. He's also a bit like Squidward in the sense that he's the cynical and stuck up "adult" character who needs to loosen up. I think the moral of this episode is actually done in a very German approach. First we make fun of the nerds and Bernd refuses to be concidered one of them because he's "above that" and they are cringe and pathetic. Ridiculing nerds the way they did had the effect - for me as a German person - that it bluntly conveys that, yes, from the outside being a nerd looked pretty cringy at the time this aired but in the end Bernd had to accept that actually those are just people like him, passionate about their hobbies and special interests. Shaming THEM for simply having fun in the harmless way they do is no more "right" than ridiculing Bernd for his special interest in history of Wall paper. It may seem more sophisticated but at its core its pretty much the same "nerd" behavior. He's just as "cringe" as them so he joins them, cause even if it may look weird for some people from the outside, there is literally no harm in it. Just let people be. That's the message ^^

    Originally Bernd was part of a show called "Tolle Sachen" with 2 other characters Chili Schaaf and Briegel Busch. Chili was meant to be the main character, but Bernd was better received by the audience. There were several spin of series with spoofs of other shows, "Berndi Broter and the Box of Disasters" (Harry Potter), "USS Bumblebee Bush" (Star Trek), etc. They were all on TV in the daytime. So the "Nachtschleife" (night loop) you watched is another show, exclusively with Bernd.

    Ingrain (or wood-chip) wallpaper is the most common type of wallpaper in Germany because it is widely used in office spaces and public buildings (we mainly use wallpaper rather than painting the walls). It's seen as a symbol for mundane and boring aspects of the average daily life, so if someone were to care about ingrain wallpaper he would be seen as especially weird and nerdy, since nobody cares about ingrain wallpaper because there is nothing exciting about it.

Edit: Should add add, I'm from the former east, but I've also lived in Regensburg for a few years - lived in a place with the same kind of stipulations.

    The hilarious thing watching this for me was, that "red shirt" actually IS a cinematic expression for an (unimportant) person appearing in an episode, for them to die, to show how dangerous a place or situation is! 🤣 And it IS derived from Star Trek!! New props in red shirts/uniforms would simply appear one episode and just die in it. That was their whole grand purpose. It is so funny, that Bernd got that so accurately right! The creator of this show really is a genius! 😂

There are so many cool and interesting more! You will never watch movies the same way again if you know them, because you will notice them anywhere! 😂 Actually the shooting and missing is propably more the "A-Team firing" trope. (I am flatly translating from German here) The A-Team (heroes) would always hit and the bad guys would always miss them, despide massive barrage of bullets. 😂

And all the Bread was doing was to explain that no one would call because they would loose money even if the call would only last one second. So he would just wait near a telephone for a call that would never come.

    The night loops aren't meant for kids, it's a staple for drunk or otherwise intoxicated adults, returning home and getting a few minutes of good humored chillout before falling asleep. 😁 And during the regular broadcast Bernd is the straight man, the foil to two other characters. There's Chili the Sheep, stuntwoman and adrenaline junkie, and Briegel the Bush, mad scientist, inventor, and subscriber to get-rich-quick-schemes. Even if Bernd does not like to admit it, he would do anything for his friends and gets roped into lots of misadventures. And he sings the Blues, they produced an album on cd about twenty years ago. As a companion piece they even filmed a little story with the different tracks, I bet it's still around on the net somewhere.

    The Kid-channel KIKA is usually shut down over the night. At some point in time, they had the capacity on the satellite anyway and instead of sending a static image with the information "This is KIKA, program will continue at 6:00 in the morning, they showed videos like this in an endless loop. The result was, that this channel got among the highest ratings of all TV-channels in the middle of the night. I think this stuff is perfect for people who are switching thru the channels at 3:00am. Another very successful night channel shows the "Space Night". This is mostly old footage from the space race in the 60's and other material from space mixed with electronic music.

That is also why it will sound normal again if you don’t think about it for a bit (the neurotransmitter gets replenished).

    "Bernd das Brot" is really just a creative way to fill the time between the channel's broadcast end and start (during the night), He doesn't tell the weather (as far as I know)... You have to know that KIKA is part of the german public broadcast, which has got shitload of money and is not dependent on money from commercials. So they may had some unused money and some bored employee and this was the crazy result of this combination xD It's kind of entertaining, especially when you take LSD or Shrooms, we did that back in college days and watched it through the whole night, although it constantly repeats the short clips, and you watch the same shit again and again.

Usually I watched the loop three times to fully enjoy all the funny little twists and jokes.

I think tho that “Streber” is more used when it comes to the “top-graded-students” and is kind of more the nerd in school. The “nerd” is more like a society seen person: the one that collects things, is passionate about certain things and so on (like the things that are listed in the video). Hope that it kinda helped
