wpeeters's rating
The context of a law firm did really bring a nice angle to treat various cases on a weekly basis, and the series had a lot of chemistry between the two leads, Veerle Dobbelaere and the outstanding rogue detective Filip Peeters, who has a lot of experience in crime drama's because he used to star in German krimi's like Tatort. It's also nice to see the underappreciated Tuur De Weert in a more serious, almost aristocratic role instead of his shenanigans in De Collega's and FC De Kampioenen. It's a good thing though that Stany Crets left after two seasons, because his poor attempts at comedy always fell flat. Recht Op Recht was best when they targeted more serious cases, invoking subjects from the underbelly of society like terrorism, hate crimes, extortion and murder. The only shame is that only one out of four seasons had been issued on dvd, because the series has withstood the test of time.
The definitiver proof that everybody working for the Flemish youth television during the eighties did massive amounts of coke.
The BRT did really good children's programmes during the eighties, like Merlina and De Opkopers, alas, this stinker was none of that. But quite the opposite. This show was really bad, and not in a good way! The puppets are atrocious, the story seems to be made up on the spot, and you wouldn't be the first one to suffer from ghoulish nightmares after exposure to this tripe.
Avoid showing this to your children unless you are prepared to pay for a psychiatrist until they're eighteen.

I simply don't understand why this series has never been given a DVD release, unlike some of the contemporary crap that festers on our screens
