Keeping Up with "Die Rosenheim-Cops": A Farewell to Frau Stockl and the Future of the Series
Potential Termination of Ongoing Television Series? - Possible cancellation of the program?
Got some juicy gossip? Well, strap in, because it's time to dish all about the much-loved "Die Rosenheim-Cops"! For over twenty years, actress Marisa Burger (51) has been the beating heart of this ZDF (German television station) crime series, playing the iconic role of Miriam Stockl, the chatty police secretary always ready with a juicy tidbit of gossip. But folks, change is in the air. After filming this fall in 2025, Burger will say her final farewell to the screen and snazzy outfits of her beloved character.
As the curtain falls, so begins a "double celebration"—the 25th season of the ZDF primetime series and the 25th anniversary of the ZDF Weekly! But don't worry, dear fans, Burger's decision to leave is entirely her own. The network praised her as "the heart of the precinct" who rules the roost with a charming mix of skill and sass.
Saying Goodbye to Frau Stockl: How Will it All End?
Taking a cue from the cat that got the cream, ZDF is keeping schtum about how Burger's character will exit the series. "The exit episode of Marisa Burger is currently under development," they said, slyly hinting that anticipation is key to the party. Same goes for the series' future after Frau Stockl's departure. "The character of Frau Stockl will not be recast, but the vacant office won't remain vacant," they stated, skillfully maintaining anticipation for fans.
But don't worry your pretty little heads about the Rosenheim Police feeling a bit lost without Frau Stockl. As the network confided, "The Rosenheim-Cops is the most successful primetime series on ZDF, and viewers can look forward to many more episodes."
21 New Episodes on the Horizon!
Venture into the fall of 2025, and fans will be treated to twenty-one bubbly episodes of the 25th season! Catch your favorite polyamorous detectives, including Anton Stadler (Dieter Fischer), Sven Hansen (Igor Jeftić), the lovable rookie Kilian Kaya (Baran Hevi), and the no-nonsense Julia Beck (Michaela Weingartner). Plus, don't miss the charming Dr. Elena Dimos (Anastasia Papadopoulou) and the sharp-tongued Mayor Marie Hofer (Karin Thaler). Returning as well are the wise-cracking Police Director Gert Achtziger (Alexander Duda), the meticulous Controller Daniel Donato (Paul Brusa), and the delightfully tactless colleagues Christin Lange (Sarah Thonig) and Marianne Grasegger (Ursula Maria Burkhart). And let's not forget the hilariously stoic Ignaz "Jo" Caspar (Christian K. Schäffer), the curmudgeon who makes working at "Times Square" worth it.
Pondering the Fate of Michi Mohr
If you're wondering what's happening with Polizeihauptmeister Michi Mohr (Max Müller), fret no more! The series' main investigators will continue to be supported by Michi, although Müller recently stirred the pot during an interview in May. He hinted, "I've recently turned 60, and I'm looking forward to the roles I've always been too young for. We'll see what comes of it." While fans have expressed concern, the network assures us that there are no immediate plans to send Michi packing.
Tune in, folks! The 25th season of "Die Rosenheim-Cops" kicks off in the fall of 2025, promising glossy drama and a few tears as we bid adieu to the beloved Frau Stockl. But fear not! The series is like a phoenix and will rise from the ashes, ready to tackle whatever challenges come its way. Until then, keep the popcorn handy!
