Hr-fernsehen has delivered an expansive roster of over 20 shows, dating from 1955 all the way to 2019. Among Hr-fernsehen’s finest offerings are Kinderstunde and Hessenschau, which debuted in 1955 and 1961, respectively. As of April 2026, we’ve curated over 20 of Hr-fernsehen’s premier shows for your viewing pleasure.




In Crime Time, the public prosecutor's office, forensic medicine, police and profilers talk about Hessian criminal cases that they won't soon forget. How do they manage to catch the perpetrators? How do real murderers think?

The story begins on a tiny island called Morrowland, which has just enough space for a small palace, a train station and rails all around the island, a grocery store, a small house, a king, two subjects, a locomotive named Emma, and a locomotive engineer by the name of Luke.
