Der Usedom-Krimi

...unless you can find something better. But seriously, it's decently done and somewhat interesting but a bit creaky (i.e. Cliché). Agree wholeheartedly with another reviewer, music is totally run of the mill and annoying.

I've seen four episodes so far on Amazon Prime and I love it! Reminds me of Murder She Wrote but with a more melancholic score. The setting is beautiful and I enjoyed the longer nearly movie-length pacing for each self-contained mystery. On Amazon Prime they call it The Nordic Murders, but Baltic Crimes makes more sense since it takes place on an island in the Baltic Sea in Germany near the Polish border. And because each episode doesn't necessarily contain a killing ... it is a small town after all, and it wouldn't seem realistic otherwise. I love how realistic this is; not overly dramatic like American productions like to be.

A decent watchable series with some interesting characters and half-decent plots.

I treat these as stand-alone plots and as far as continuity goes? So what....have you watched Vera?

I really enjoy this series,set on an island in the Baltic in the eastern part of Germany close to the Polish border. Like most TV series of this genre is is very slow burning yet it is enthralling viewing. The cast is excellent the first series starting with the release from prison of Karin Lossow and her return to her home on the.island of Usedom where her daughter Julia is a police inspector. Each episode is a stand alone story and with each episode the characters are fleshed out and we get to know more about them. The plots of the episodes are extremely good and the location filming is stunning showing the beautiful scenery of the countryside Having enjoyed the first season I was delighted to discover that the second series was available on All4,so I'm slowly streaming my way through it. The series is well worth a watch probably the best German TV series shown on Walter Presents since the Deutschland Trilogy. Roll on season 3!!!

I watched the first season. They must have not hired a police advisor. Seldom have I seen complete ignorance of proper procedure, blatant lying, and criminals allowed to go free because of connections to the prosecutors and police officers. I won't bother with the gaps in continuity. The only two likable characters were the lead's husband that she cheated on and a homeless woman whose attackers went free to protect the guilty.
