Why the name change?


This show is Polizeiruf 110, not Bukow and König. What's up with that? Weren't Bukow and König just characters from a couple seasons of the show? That's like calling Law & Order "Lennie and Jack"! I tried fixing this, but IMDB insists on the new name. WTF? Is there a reason for this I don't know about? Did some U.S. channel pick it up and use that name?

Further investigation reveals that the name change is because MHZ has decided to market a two or three seasons of the show on their channel under that name. IMDB should be ashamed of themselves.

Yes I just watched what MHz calls season 1 episode 1 titles One Of Us. According to IMDb listing it's what season 29 or something .
Show started in 1971. I will have to ask my German cousins.....
It was different and pretty good. But puzzling history. I will be contacting MHz Choice folks.
