initial situation
Bastian Pastewka plays the role of Jochen Lehmann. He is married, has three children and owns a printing company that is deeply in the red. Both professionally and privately things are not going well for Jochen at all. Financially he is up to his neck. The banks do not want to give him any more credit and his wife Julia ( Susanne Wolff ) has a lover.
And just as Jochen is on the brink of the brink one night he begins to print fake fifties. Although the flowers solve the worst financial worries, they in turn create new problems because the underworld now becomes aware of Jochen.

Reviews
The series has been compared many times to the popular US series Breaking Bad . ZDF program director Norbert Himmler praised the series when it was presented with this comparison, while Die Zeit and other media criticized the many borrowings from the model.
“In this country, critics and audiences like to make contemporary series the supreme discipline, because thematic, historical added value is rightly a quality criterion. In this regard, but also in terms of plot technology, 'Deutschland 83' and 'Weißensee' may be the 'more significant' series. Dramaturgically, atmospherically, film aesthetically, cast-technically and lust-politically (this means the fun and cult potential for the viewer) but 'Tomorrow I will stop' is the bigger coup - especially since the subtext of the series in the direction of 'Crisis & Social Decline' as well a certain social relevance cannot be denied. "
“'Tomorrow I will stop' is - roughly similar to the novels of Sven Regener - an exciting mixture of genres, a drama, a sardonic deep penetration into the inner bourgeoisie consciousness, a nasty family novel, a study in male crisis management, a fabulous acting skirmish of highly diverse talents . And the birth of the character actor Bastian Pastewka. "
“So, can that work: Put Pastewka and some other humor signals into a basically serious plot, which is of course a robber's pistol, staged by a veteran crime director (Martin Eigler: 'Tatort', 'Stralsund')? Can a mix of 'Breaking Bad' and 'Pastewka' be good?
Clear answer: yes. "
“The biggest problem with the film, however, is its leading actor: Bastian Pastewka simply cannot break away from his image as a comedian. There is usually something awkward about his failure in attempts to leave the crooked path again - but he shouldn't look clumsy at all. The desperation he would have to face in view of the existential threat to his existence is never apparent. And that someone like that could become a murderer - hard to believe. Pastewka, as an unwilling criminal, is himself such a fool. [...]
The series is said to be 'a mix of comedy, drama and crime', according to ZDF. But this mixture works a lot like fried herring with whipped cream. Didn't the broadcaster put you on the better slot at 8:15 p.m. because it didn't really trust the recipe? "
