Derrick usually had one episode every four weeks. A “season” is actually a calendar year. The episodes followed the usual murder-investigation climax pattern. Within that there was plenty of room for original ideas and surprising twists: someone who accidentally kills the wrong person, a witness who demands hush money from the killer, an unexpected accomplice…
Before 1974 Horst Tappert did quite a bit of theater and TV work, but after that he could only play one role for a quarter of a century because of his great recognisability. With his trench coat, his imposing figure and his penetrating gaze, he exudes authority. Derrick is incorruptible, the arm of the law. He smokes filter cigarettes and drinks during working hours. He is a bachelor with an unexciting private life, although in episode 8 he has a relationship with a psychologist - who will return in the next season.
The guest roles are at a high level. The same actors were also in other crime or drama series. Mascha Gonska plays three different roles in this vintage alone. Well-known German film actors also make their appearance, such as Bond villain Curd Jürgens and Klaus Maria Brandauer in a role with swagger.
Brave citizens are discussed, but also the Munich nightlife with striptease bars and brown pubs. To avoid talking heads, they let Derrick play billiards or show a biker gang in the police station. A subjective camerawork shows the point of view of the murderer or someone who is lurking through a keyhole. This is a treat for fans of old crime series.
Favorite episodes: 1, 4 and 8.
