What to Expect

PremiereLens read

Behringer und die Toten pairs murder investigations with the dry humor of a detective whose easygoing appearance disguises a razor-sharp mind. Suspects and rivals underestimate him, giving him room to listen as they talk themselves into corners. His quiet precision turns those encounters into a mix of puzzle-solving and character comedy, with gentle menace rather than a relentlessly grim tone.

Bamberg gives the cases a distinct local texture, from its cobbled streets to the Franconian manner of speaking. Each mystery concludes within an episode, keeping the storytelling focused on the investigation at hand. The regional setting and self-contained cases give Behringer’s sharp deductions room to register without losing the series’ cozy, amusing character.

Strongest Match

The pleasure of watching an underestimated detective outthink a small-town murder case carries over to Hubert ohne Staller, where dry jokes and local quirks keep each mystery cozy. Behringer’s quiet precision gives way to two Bavarian partners whose bickering and village banter make the cases warmer and more openly comic.

Der letzte Bulle

DramaCrime

German crime comedy about a detective who wakes from a 20-year coma.

View show
Why this pick

Behringer und die Toten – Ein Bamberg-Krimi makes case-solving fun by letting a sharp detective surprise people who underestimate him, and Der letzte Bulle brings a similarly cheeky lead to its crimes. His blunt old-school swagger and clashes with modern police habits make this one broader and more boisterous.

Professor T poster

Professor T

ITV1 • Aug 24, 2025
CrimeMystery

Professor Jasper Tempest, a genius Cambridge University criminologist with OCD and an overbearing mother, assists the police in solving crime.

View show
Why this pick

The fun of watching an unusual, sharp-minded lead work through a crime gives Professor T a familiar appeal, with dry humor alongside the clues and interviews. Behringer’s cases stay cozy and light, while the fussy Cambridge professor’s rigid routines and prickly police partnerships bring darker turns and more unsettling mysteries.
