This was produced by Constantin Entertainment GmbH . The series takes place in Cologne, Hamburg, Frankfurt, Hanover, Berlin and Munich, but was shot and produced exclusively in Munich. From 2017 to 2018 the program was no longer broadcast on Sat.1, but on Sat.1 Gold .

content

Sat.1 describes the format as light fiction . The narrated, completed stories show people who are involved in a crime through no fault of their own. The viewer learns the course of events from the perspective of those affected and the personal consequences for them. The path taken by the police to clear up the case is also shown.

Hectic camera movements, such as the scripted realities Auf Streife or Mein dunkleskret , which are also broadcast on Sat.1 , are dispensed with in In Hazard - A Fateful Moment . The individual interviews with the protagonists shown in between are also missing. But there are moments that are shown in slow motion and with thoughts of the main roles. There is no off-screen speaker. There are exact scripts for each episode.

Each episode, including the commercials played in between, is 60 minutes long. The appearing person is both to professional actors and to amateurs .

Episodes

Each episode title begins with a male or female first name followed by a brief, suspenseful statement about the episode's content.

reception

criticism

David Grzeschik from Oddsmeter.de criticized that the series was not a high-class format, but moved in the area between cheap crime thriller format and scripted reality.

“Sometimes the program tends more in the direction of cheaply produced crime thriller format, sometimes it moves more in the direction of scripted reality. In summary: "In danger" provokes little, but has absolutely nothing to do with quality television. "

Timo Nöthling from Oddsmeter.de, however, noted that the start of the series was very good from a technical point of view and that the series produced by Constantin Entertainment was also of good quality.

“The company from Ismaning has just successfully placed the crime series“ In danger - a fateful moment ”on Sat.1, which has been shown on weekdays since August 11th at 6 p.m. and has made a great impression there so far. Constantin Entertainment's productions also seem to be improving in terms of quality, if you look at the new format on Sat.1. "
