Michael Mittermeier publishes new book - the "crime scene" gets its own chapter
In an interview with
t-online.de
, Michael Mittermeier (all news on the topic page) acknowledges that German broadcasters have “a lot of catching up to do”.
"Whenever I read that someone has shot another crazy 'crime scene' or some other supposedly overwhelming TV film, I sit in front of it and can't believe my eyes.
90 minutes of bad jazz music and after 30 minutes at the latest I ask myself if I'm the only one who defines tension differently," says Mittermeier.

At the time he had the feeling that “Germany is collapsing for many.
The land of poets and thinkers is going under because Til Schweiger is shooting a 'crime scene'”.
And further:
"The motto at Schweiger is: switch off your brain and just have 90 minutes of fun.
I wanted to show that fun can be found where the good is not expected."
