Production and publication

In the program presentation for the 2015/16 TV season on July 7, 2015, the television broadcaster Sat.1 announced that a new series with the working title 23 Cases had been commissioned. From August 18 to November 5, 2015, six episodes were filmed in Berlin under the direction of Felix Herzogenrath and Edzard Onneken, including the main actors Shadi Hedayati , Franz Dinda and Bernhard Piesk .

A broadcast was announced for the spring of 2016, but this did not take place. Instead, a start date for spring 2017 was promised during the program presentation for the 2016/17 TV season on July 13, 2016. However, this broadcast date was also not kept. The reason for this is that the station managers were no longer satisfied with the series produced. It is too gloomy, too pointed and too hard for the Sat.1 viewers. Instead, the managing director of the production company H & V Entertainment Mischa Hofmann announced that it was planned to broadcast the miniseries under the title 23 as a two-part series with 100 minutes each on Sat.1 in autumn 2017.

After almost exactly four years since the series was announced, the new streaming platform Joyn announced on July 10, 2019 that it would publish the crime series under the title 23 Murders from August 19, 2019. The first two episodes were released on August 19th. Another episode followed weekly until September 16, 2019.

From August 23 to September 6, 2019, the Austrian television broadcaster ORF 1 showed the series weekly in the night from Thursday to Friday from midnight. A broadcast on German television is not planned.

Episode list

The first three episodes were first published on August 19 and 26, 2019 on Joyn . The other episodes were first broadcast on the Austrian television broadcaster ORF 1 from August 30 to September 6, 2019.
