Scheibenwischer is quite regular, live cabaret show in German public (i.e. non private) television (the one everyone pays the monthly TV fee for, and thus may not show commercials after 8 p.m.). Sadly you hardly find announcements of "Scheibenwischer" due to its extreme criticism on any local and global political event, what is the reason for being pushed around to any program place by the officials and usually you fall in when zapping on late night TV. Luckily each show is repeated 5-10 times within the following 2-3 weeks on different regional stations and you have a chance to see it, if one of your friends reminds you.
Although the comments in the show are very sharp, they whole show is on a very high intellectual level and also gives some alternatives, even so governments won't care. Comments range topics like peace, environment, corruption, social justice, minorities/xenophobia, and much more.
One of the best shows in German television. It's cabaret, not comedy.

One warning in advance: Watching this short movie you have to cope with someone eating a living frog. Well in the story, and it's all done for love. At least the comment in the credits is, that none of the animals in the film (neither frog nor cow nor chicken) was harmed in any way and in addition who was responsible for the catering within the production (indeed there are 4 acting persons in the movie, two main and two supporting characters).
See it and have fun with all the typical rough but nice Bavarian characters (It's a hidden feature/easter egg in the DVD "Die Scheinheiligen" from the same director, who did this short movie for an exam during his time at university). Bavarian sense of humor on its purest, although the actors are non professionals and the ending is slightly modified from the joke the whole movie is based on.
Remember: There are neither half frogs nor half cows, in Bavarian: "A hoibe Kuah gibt's ned!" (Did I mention, the whole feature is in strong Bavarian dialect)
