Overview
- The two-part farewell airs Sunday and Monday at 20:15 on Das Erste, closing a 35-year run that spans 100 cases and, per BR, roughly a billion viewers.
- The final case starts with a burned body found deep under Munich and points to a phantom who uses copied keys to slip into privately rented apartments listed on short‑stay platforms.
- A 45‑minute retrospective titled “Batic und Leitmayr – Die Zwei vom Tatort sagen Servus” follows part two on Monday night on ARD.
- BR withheld the last minutes of the finale from press screeners to keep the resolution under wraps until broadcast.
- Successors are set: Ferdinand Hofer, now a commissioner, teams with Carlo Ljubek in two already filmed Munich episodes with air dates still to come.
