Mord mit Aussicht

Ensemble cast of 4 lead by Sophie, Caroline, a bright star. Light hearted, enjoyable. Who knew Germans could do light comedy. I love her smile, like the cat who ate the canary. I enjoy her outfits and see each season they give her a new color palette. For someone forced to stay who wants to get back to Cologne, she is kind and assimilates well. Commitment Phobic or maybe she just hasn't met the right guy.

Barbel is cute & socially naive. Both are astute Detectives. They like each other. Sophie lights up when they have a murder I like that her Dad who in real life has died, is portrayed as living in Poland with his young girlfriend.

2 episodes kept seeing Owls, one on the lit Polizei sign. A bit Surrealistic. They don't play too much loud music during scenes.

Season 4, The new Mayor has a one night stand, &doesn't tell Sophie his intentions before. What a Cad. Maybe family in Cologne. I guess he can Troll in Cologne for casual sex.

I don't take it seriously as a crime drama. But not bad. I've seen worse taking themselves seriously. One review hated the characters. Me, I like them.

What's the perfect translation for the show's title? "Murder with a view"? Anyway, this TV show is funny, uplifting, entertaining, captivating and very enjoyable. Hengasch is a strange village with strange people and I absolutely love it! Sophie Haas is a typical mid-thirty woman from a big city and Caroline Peters is just amazing in her role. The other main characters are great as well. Dietmar is such a lovely idiot and Bärbel with her wide-eyed temper is simply adorable. I really enjoy these completely different characters and how they solve the murder cases in awesome Hengasch.

The humour might be not everyone's taste - but I love it. It's not overstated, it's rather understated, snappy and kind of silly and foolish. I love the mixture! The three seasons really hooked me and the concluding TV movie "A Murder With A View" is a very nice conclusion.

Unfortunately, season 3 isn't as brilliant as the first two seasons. I couldn't get over the feeling that the producers (maybe new directors and writers) wanted to put more comedy into this show. It didn't really work for me. Some episodes are just dull and, well, filled with overstated situations. It's such a pity!

Nonetheless, I will visit Hengasch via my TV more than once. It's an enjoyable, fresh and unconventional crime series! Go watch it, folks!

We are watching this on MHz using the English subtitles and thoroughly enjoying it . We love th characters .. Sofia has a very mobile face that communicates her constant bewilderment of life in the " sticks". If I wanted to bribe Dietmar to get out of a speeding ticket I think cookies would do the trick. Dietmar's wife is a scream, " bulldozer" is far too mild a term ...bold and obtuse. We are looking forward to the rest of the series . Our preference is to buy DVDs and watch them at our leisure but I am unable to find DVDs with subtitles .. MHz has stopped selling DVDs perhaps the takeover by Kino Lorber I'll change this .

So much fun with a good mystery thrown in. I hope there are more than just 3 seasons as it's definitely a mood lifter! Great cast members also. My review was apparently to short so I'll write more.... Does anyone know of there are more seasons of this program? It's a good program with quirky characters which I love. I would like to have seen Sophie and Jan's relationship grow, as well as all the other characters in the show. It would be great to see what the new Mayor does with Hangash. I'm sure I spelled that wrong. I would love to see what Barbel and her baby develop into. Maybe a few new characters moving to town? It's a good show and I would recommend it to anyone who wants something lighthearted, good fun and and fun mystery. Enjoy!

Ambitious police woman from the big city Sophie Haas gets sent to a country side police station, rather than getting promoted to the vacant higher position she has hoped for.

This police comedy lives from the characters and the clash between city dweller Haas and the life and culture of the country side.

Haas is single at heart, enjoys driving fast and fashionable clothes. Besides that she can connect the dots and solve the crimes with the help of her new colleagues. Colleage Dietmar Schäffer is a rather meek and homely character, married to his wife Heike, who is well connected, very nosy and unlike her husband quite feisty. Young colleague Bärbel Schmied is naive, but enthusiastic with her heart in the right spot. Both colleagues address their pensioned ex-boss as boss when he happens to drop by at the police station to announce his prejudiced insights - and that happens often. There is the gynecologist, who always certifies a death to be a heart attack.

Eine ambitionierte und kompetente Kriminal-Kommissarin Sophie Haas wird , anstatt auf eine höhere freie Stelle in Köln befördert zu werden, in ein Polizeikommissariat auf dem platten Land in der Eifel versetzt.

Die Serie lebt von den Charakteren und dem ungebremsten Aufprall des Stadtkindes Haas auf das klischeehaft zelebrierte Landleben. Die beiden neuen Untergebenen sind der biedere Dietmar Schäffer - verheiratet mit der resoluten und immer bestens informierten und neugierigen Hausfrau Heike, die die Hosen anhat - und die naiv-enthusiastische junge Bärbel Schmied. Alle Charaktere haben ihre Eigenarten. Auch die Nebenfiguren sind witzig - der sich immer einmischende pensionierte Ex-Chef mit seinen schnellen Vorurteilen, der Gynäkologe, der immer Herzinfarkt attestiert und und und.
