Scene of the Crime
Tatort is actually just a long-running German/Austrian/Swiss, crime video show set in sections of these countries. The show is aired in Germany, ORF two in Austria and also SF1 at Switzerland. The very first episode was aired on November 29, 1970. The order to this particular show has stayed the same through the decades, which remains extremely strange for such long-running tv-series current.
Every one of those television stations that together form ARD, and ORF along with SF, produces a unique episodes, starring its police inspector, some of which, just like the Schimanski, have become cultural icons.
The show appears on DasErste and ORF two on Sundays at 8:15 p.m. and now about 30 episodes have been created annually. At the time of March 2013, 865 episodes altogether have been produced.
