In the eight-part program U3000 (2000), broadcasted by the music station MTV, Schlingensief assumes the role of the presenter who hates himself for his self-love disguised as telegenic selflessness. Common broadcasting formats are all being ridiculed without exception. A socially needy family can qualify for participation by winning the always same outside bet, in order to make their private fate public in front of a running camera and in the presence of passengers in the moving subway. Childlike rounds of games give them the opportunity to improve social welfare, critically watched by a jury made up of the handicapped actors from Schlingensief's ensemble. Aged show stars like Maria and Margot Hellwig, Christian Anders or Roberto Blanco are used in a talk-show wagon as cheap fodder and are forced to show compassion with such victims of the market economy. The bands of the MTV generation (Atari Teenage Riot, Surrogat, Söhne Mannheims and others) play in the dance wagon.

Koffietijd! is een Nederlands livetelevisieprogramma dat van 1994 tot 2001 werd uitgezonden op RTL 4. Het dagelijkse televisiemagazine, uitgezonden tussen 10.00 en 11.00 uur 's ochtends, werd gepresenteerd door het duo Mireille Bekooij en Hans van Willigenburg. Onder het motto hoe drinkt de koffiegast zijn of haar koffie? was bekend en onbekend Nederland te gast in het veelbekeken praatprogramma.
In het seizoen 2000/2001 worden, als gevolg van een verjongingsdrift, zowel de bekende klassieke Koffietijd!-tune als Bekooij en Van Willigenburg in de rol van presentator vervangen door Sybrand Niessen en Judith de Klijn. In navolging op de verjongingsdrift vallen de kijkcijfers erg tegen en wordt er besloten te stoppen met het programma. In 2006, 2007 en 2008 zijn er wel nog eenmalige speciale afleveringen te zien om de kijkers aan te moedigen geld in te zamelen voor het goede doel.
Vanaf 5 april 2010 is Koffietijd als vanouds weer doordeweeks te zien op RTL 4. Ditmaal met in de presentatie Loretta Schrijver, Quinty Tr
