Ku'damm 77 Set to Air on ZDF With Fan-Driven Return of Sabin Tambrea

Creator Annette Hess says viewer backlash over a character’s death led to Tambrea’s comeback in a new role.

Overview

  • ZDF’s three-part broadcast is scheduled for January 12–14 in prime time, following an early streaming release.
  • All episodes have been available in the ZDF-Mediathek since December 27, 2025.
  • Tambrea reappears as Robert Beck, a teacher whose resemblance to a late character unsettles Monika without revealing the storyline.
  • The season introduces TV journalist Linda Müller, whose documentary lens adds a new narrative perspective on the Schöllack family.
  • Set in 1977, the drama folds in disco culture, the urban drug problem and RAF-era tensions, and it also proceeds without Trystan Pütter, whose character is written out.
