Das Alibi
Die Rede des Münchner Oberbürgermeisters anlässlich des 35. Dienstjubiläums der SOKO 5113 wird jäh unterbrochen: In einem Mehrfamilienhaus wurde die Leiche der Hausmeisterin gefunden. Einsatz für die SOKO 5113. Arthur Bauer und sein Team haben schon bald den Eindruck, sich über Motiv und Tathergang im Klaren zu sein: Die Hausmeisterin hat dem gesamten Haus – inklusive ihrem Mann Jürgen – das Leben zur Hölle gemacht und die Mieter terrorisiert. Irgendjemandem muss die Hutschnur geplatzt sein. Allerdings haben alle Mieter hieb- und stichfeste Alibis, die durch nichts zu erschüttern sind. Zum ersten Mal in der Geschichte der Sonderkommission 5113 scheint der Fall unlösbar – bis Arthur Bauer auf eine Theorie kommt, deren ungewöhnlicher Mix aus Perfidie und Mitleid die Geschehnisse in einem neuen Licht erscheinen lässt. Eine außergewöhnliche Geschichte zu einem besonderen Jubiläum: 500 Folgen „SOKO 5113“.
If there’s one show that has stood the test of time in the world of crime dramas, it’s undoubtedly Tatort. First airing on November 29, 1970, this German-language police procedural television series has become a staple in households across Germany, Austria, and Switzerland. Broadcasted on major channels like ARD, ORF 2, and SF1, Tatort has produced over 1200 episodes across its remarkable 55 seasons. Each episode is distinctively crafted by various regional broadcasters, showcasing unique settings and local customs while maintaining a thread of gripping crime-solving narratives.
One of the most compelling aspects of Tatort is its commitment to character depth and development. The format allows for feature-length episodes averaging around 90 minutes each—far longer than typical weekly dramas—which affords viewers an immersive experience into the lives of its protagonists. From iconic inspectors like Schimanski to contemporary favorites navigating complex cases in bustling cities or quiet towns, viewers get a multi-dimensional view of not just the crimes but the cultures surrounding them. This emphasis on character makes it easy for audiences to connect with their stories and invest emotionally in their fates.
The collaborative production model behind Tatort is another reason for its phenomenal longevity and success. Each participating regional TV station contributes uniquely styled episodes featuring different teams of inspectors solving crimes in their own cities—from scenic Vienna to vibrant Berlin—showcasing local architecture and dialects as integral parts of the plotline. This approach not only enriches each episode but also fosters a sense of community among viewers who may recognize their own locales being portrayed onscreen.
