I am German and I love German filmmaking, they are able to produce great stuff but they can also produce a huge mess, and "Tatort" shows both sides of the coin.
There are great episodes especially the "Duisburg-Tatort" form the 1980s with Inspector Schimanski.
He was representing the typ of man who lived in the "Ruhrpott" at that time, he was harsh sometimes, drunk a lot and bad organized but he loved the work he was doing and he had great respect for the people who lived in the area because he was one of them.
I highly recommend the episode "Duisburg-Ruhrort" from the early 1980s, it's absolutely amazing, a masterpiece of German filmmaking!!!
So glory the past, so annoying is the present, all "Tatort" episodes no matter where they are if in southern or northern Germany, eastern or western, they have mixed up to a confusable, monotonous and discouraged mass.
I gave the show three stars because the old episodes are great and I hope that there will come better times, but today it is not worth more then 3/10.
