The only criticism is that the series takes too long time to introduce the characters. Yes, they have depth and complexity but more time could've spent on entertainment meaning action.
Other than that happy that I was able to binge watch it, good story, lots of twist and turns and excitement until the end. Worth to spend a rainy Sunday with it.

I thought it is going to be a silly show while watching the first episode, but it turned out to be something way different than expected: a twisted scenario, crazy subplots all mixing into the main one.
The characters are all of a kind which might come a little too much when it comes to sexual propaganda, but might be all normal if taking in consideration the state where the action is going. Ethnic reality in Deutschland is well presented as well. So rather don't miss it, it's crazy, it's hardcore and it's good.

This is the first German show I've watched on Netflix and I was hooked from the start. All the characters are flawed in some way, most at least partially redeem themselves by the end and some don't. Some of the many intertwining storylines are a bit OTT and a bit superfluous but the show was thoroughly enjoyable and it would be great to see a second series.
I generally do not like gang-themed stories. I find them boring. What made me watch Dogs of Berlin is my love for the city of Berlin. Because of the content, I expected to last only half an episode before turning it off.
But I got sucked right in. I finished the last episode just now and I hope to god there is a second season planned! All the pieces are surely there for another round, but you never know. The two main characters are both complex and relatable. It was a wild ride watching them navigate the dangerous situations they ended up in! More please!
I really liked it. It's very gritty and the characters are fairly complex. That said, the viewer really needs to know a bit about the politics and issues currently facing German society. Netflix did a good job on including a lot of these issues. A previous review on here mentioned the ban of Nazi symbols. Yes, it's true, but the symbol that the Nazi club uses is actually not an "N" (for "Nazi") but rather an "M" which stands for the borough of Marzahn, where the club is based out of. The series also does a good job in characterizing impoverished east Germans & their attitudes against wealthier west Germans. There's really a lot going on that might appear random for someone not accustomed with current events in Germany. The biker gangs, the criminal clans, the police corruption, etc. were all portrayed very accurately I thought. I hope there's a second season. I don't usually write reviews, but this is a pretty cool show.
