Achtsam Morden

After a long time I watched a really good and well made series I can't wait for season 2 already, Each episode pulls you deeper into the plot, keeping you hooked with unexpected twists and emotional depth. The acting, direction and screenplay are mind blowing it just gets better and better. Hope it gets renewed for season 2. I think the main lead and all the actors have done a fabulous job and it is very mature and modern. Also the series does not play around and is not afraid to put characters in the most difficult position they can deal with is jst amazing to see unlike other shows where they favour their main lead. It's undoubtedly one of the best shows in recent memory.

My First German series and it didn't disappoint. I loved Tom Schilling's acting. He is perfect for the role. Absolutely entertained me and kept me coming for more. The Mindfulness lessons by the doctor (Who is also cast perfectly) worked well for me too Haha :D

Can't wait for S2 ! Kudos to the team. They've gone above and beyond with the camera work and I loved watching every frame. Emily was too cute. The whole plot combining Murder and Mindfulness, was not only bringing two extreme poles to work together, but also was fresh and engaging to watch. It goes to show that even Murder when committed with Mindfulness still works ;) Not planning to do any, but it instilled a quaint picture in my head of how being mindful in intense situations can look and feel like and that's a great takeaway from this series..

Oof. I really enjoyed this series but there are so many plot conveniences that become harder and harder to ignore as the series progresses. Smart people become stupid when it's convenient, dumb people become smart when it's convenient, you'll be watching the show going "oh this is clever how they set this up how are they going to sort this out" then the writing just half asses the hell out of it... It's kind of funny really.

I'm in Canada watching the English dub and at first I thought maybe something was getting lost in translation but it became pretty obvious that was not the case towards the end.

Honestly I really enjoyed the show, more than a lot of other shows I've watched recently. It IS entertaining but if you watch it you'll see exactly what I mean.

The series is very entertaining and diverting. The original book is also about a lawyer, so @keikoyoshikawa seems to have got something mixed up in his review. The lawyer learns how to deal with certain situations from his mindfulness coach. The series is very closely modelled on the book. Only some of the supporting characters are different. I really enjoyed 'Mindful Murder'. It is a fast-paced production. There is not only this series, but also a corresponding theatre play, which I have already seen. The series and the play have the same structure. I'm already looking forward to the second season.

Murder Mindfully (German Language): Achtsam Morden. Netflix 2024 Unassuming Lawyer Bjorn, struggle with pressure, failing marriage, not seeing his daughter enough, guilt over representing local gangland boss etc.

What does he do to resolve this problems he seeks spiritual guidance.

After attending a course of "mindfulness" his life turns around for the better, with added complications,

If you consider Break Bad as the premise these types of programmes you'll get the idea.

It is thoroughly entertaining and very watchable and worth 4 hours of anyone times (8x1/2 episodes)

The only spoiler I will give, I think the maker have left it open to enable a second series, which it does warrant.
