Is it worth starting?
This is 9 seasons deep — German drama, leaning crime, not one for younger kids. There's a lot of it, which is either the appeal or the problem depending on your week.
- Skip if
- you don't want to start something several seasons deep
- Best for
- A long run rather than a single sitting
