Crime Scene Cleaner (German
Television Comedy Series)
Schotty has a job many wouldn’t want
to do. I'm sure you're already guessed, he is a crime scene cleaner. He’s an average guy just trying to do his
job. But besides being a crime scene
cleaner he is a sounding board for the people he meets when all he’s trying to
do is clean up gore. He encounters a
murderer returning to the scene of the crime, a hooker not realizing her
appointment was cancelled, even a National Socialist Party member (basically a modern
Nazi) wanting to discuss politics as Schotty tries to clean up the aftermath of
a grisly accidental death.
By turns my mouth was gaping open with
the absurdity of it all or I was laughing out loud. There isn’t a lot of action, let’s face it the
true action already occurred, but there is a lot of witty and truly odd dialogue
as people love talking to Schotty. They
tell him everything and bring him into philosophical, ethical and political
discussions as he goes about his work.
You need a quirky sense of humor to
enjoy this series, I freely admit that, but I think anyone will enjoy the first
episode. It was probably the best of
them all. I it an elderly woman kills a
home invader and can’t stop lamenting the loss of a couch the intruder
slashed. Many famous people sat on that
couch and she grieves for it at length.
Too bad the intruder fell down the stairs and died. Or did he?
