Taste-matched follow-ups
These picks stay near the love triangle drama, betrayal revenge, and jealousy fueled romance feel, then widen out into a few deeper cuts.
Closest matches first, then broader nearby picks.
Why this fits: Hollyoaks keeps the same kind of relationship pressure as Alles was zählt, with neighbors, classmates, and co-workers constantly colliding in messy love triangles and betrayals. Expect lots of dialogue-heavy confrontations, secret-keeping, and long-running grudges that build episode after episode, but with a more ensemble, community-chaos feel.
Why this fits: Landman delivers the workplace-and-family friction that Alles was zählt does so well, where romance, jealousy, and loyalty get tangled with ambition and boss-employee tension. You get infidelity and fractured marriages playing out in small-town settings, with parent-child friction adding extra heat, but it leans more grounded and less soap-complex.
Why this fits: Amsterdam Empire brings the same intimate betrayal energy as Alles was zählt, mixing ex-spouse and lover entanglements with dangerous revenge that keeps escalating through personal choices. The show stays character-focused, with co-worker and family pressure turning every interaction into a risk, but it’s sharper and more urban-crime flavored than the figure-skating-center world.
Why this fits: Alles was zählt leans hard into jealousy-fueled romance and family conflict that keeps escalating. Her Mother's Killer brings that slow-cooked revenge into inside-the-system crime and political sabotage, with calculated takedowns instead of soap-style workplace rivalry.
Why this fits: Alles was zählt gives you workplace rivalry and family conflict that plays out in ongoing emotional arcs. Tatort swaps the love-triangle drama for episodic casework, rotating detective teams, and methodical investigation, so you get case-by-case pacing rather than serialized soap intensity.
Why this fits: Alles was zählt thrives on betrayal, jealousy, and family conflict that can turn intimate relationships into pressure cookers. The Chi keeps that interpersonal heat but grounds it in neighborhood loyalty and working-class survival, trading romantic sabotage for coming-of-age grit and serialized tension.
