Everything except murder was a German crime series that was developed based on an idea by Michael Baier and broadcast on the private television station ProSieben . The series was produced by the new German film company (ndF).
In Everything but Murder, the usually somewhat clumsy private detective Uli Fichte investigates criminal cases. He handles customer orders according to the motto: "I do everything - except murder!"
The unsound spruce lives in an old industrial building in the port of Hamburg and drives an old Mercedes-Benz . The bourgeois opposite side is the psychologist Dr. Frieder Tamm with wife Melanie and two sons as well as the journalist Horst Weinstein. And contrary to his motto, Fichte always has to deal with a murder, although this is usually not apparent at the beginning; an apparently harmless and simply stored case turns out to be murder in the course of the episode.
Since the series did not get beyond low ratings, despite good reviews , ProSieben only produced 3 seasons between 1993 and 1995 with a total of 14 episodes. 1996 ProSieben discontinued the series.
In early 2008, the series was released as a DVD set.
