Crime Stories (2013– )

Awesome series

[8/10 · 20 December 2017]

Like the predecessor: "Shades of Guilt ( http://www.imdb.com/title/tt3689304/)" is each episode one case.

What I really liked was the little teaser of the case before the intro. Usually, you see a crime and you think guilty of the offender, but at the end of each episode, I have to take a step back and think about it. How would I act in such a situation? How would I decide? I think this is the key point of the series and its successor mentioned above. I really like those not black and white cases and I think this is very normal in reality.

Shades of Guilt (2015–2019)

A very real law series from the perspective of the defender

[8/10 · 28 November 2017]

The series has no episodic story yet. Each episode is a new case.

I think the series is pretty good and very clear. For me, the series feels very real and you could believe this happened exactly like this in real life. And as "qui_j" in his review said, the series is sometimes slow-moving and has not a lot of action in it. But for me, it is more about realism than a typical action, drama law-series.

Overall this is a German law series and probably wouldn't make sense in all cases from a US law perspective.
