- Synopsis
- TV Series (1994-2004). 10 Seasons. 119 Episodes. Kommissar Rex (English Inspector Rex) is a popular Austrian-made police television drama, aired from 1994 to 2004 even though new series are being released.
The series is set in Vienna and focuses on the three-man staff of an office of the Kriminalpolizei - the Austrian Crime Squad - specifically a Mordkommission, or Homicide Commission. In addition to the three policemen, the office is staffed by a German Shepherd called Rex who functions variously as a cadaver dog, a sniffer dog (for both contraband and narcotics) and as another pair of eyes and ears for his team.
The original team at the office were Richard Moser, Ernst Stockinger and Peter Höllerer. This team was also assisted by forensic expert Dr Leo Graf and retired policemen Max Koch. Later arrivals included Christian Böck replacing Stockinger, Alexander Brandtner replacing Moser and former statistics officer Fritz Kunz replacing Höllerer. An even later incarnation of the series featured a male-female duo of the clumsy Marc Hoffmann and Nikki Herzog working alongside Kunz. Dr. Graf is the only character not to have departed the show.
The show is scripted entirely in German, some characters speak with slight Austrian dialects and is shot on location in Vienna and its surroundings, though the usage of areas in production is often geographically incorrect. Subtitles are used for some international markets, while in others the series is dubbed.
Many actors play different characters in different episodes of the series, with one of the more striking examples of this being Gedeon Burkhard playing an HIV-infected villain in an early episode before returning as Brandtner. (From wikipedia.org).- Movie Soulmates' ratings
