Acclaimed German drama Babylon Berlin will have a Free to Air premiere next week at SBS On Demand.
There have been 40 episodes produced across 4 seasons from 2017 – 2022 (all will be available) with a fifth season confirmed.
Berlin at the end of the Roaring Twenties is brimming with organised crime and political extremism. The old militaristic elite have not yet abdicated, the metropolis is flush with talent and ambition, but beneath the glittering surface, a darker monster is starting to flex its muscles. Toni roams the streets of Berlin with a group of young peers, fighting for survival, and putting her sister Charlotte in constant risk. Meanwhile, Detective Gereon’s investigations lead him into the boxing milieu, and uncomfortably close to Hitler’s SA as the Nazis’ march to power begins.
Thursday, 14 March 2024 on SBS On Demand.

It is lavish, and style and lot of fun. The acting is terrific. The plotting though is driven by coincidence and randomness most of the time. The final eps of S2 two resorted to some pretty unbelievable melodrama. Still it beats anything else on TV at the moment.
I’ve seen the first three seasons of this on Netflix and it’s a great show.Another great pick up for SBS.They are certainly kicking goals when it comes to drama on their streaming site.
I thought I had only seen three seasons too, on Netflix. Your comment confirms this. Looking forward to S4 on SBS!
Thanks for the heads up as this has been on my list for awhile
Thanks David. I could easily miss such shows if not for your web site.
Looks luscious and it has excellent reviews on IMDB.
