Talk:Inspector Rex

message: I have only seen a couple of episodes, but I would strongly contest that the show is scripted in Austrian dialect to a major degree. When I saw it, I always wondered about how many Germans appear to be in Vienna on this show. In fact, with Tobias Moretti's accent, he is not credible as a Vienna police inspector at all. In real life, he would probably be asked if he's from Germany all the time. Martg76 14:46, 9 Oct 2004 (UTC)
thread_title: Austrian dialect?

message: I'm a little in doubt as to the category inclusion. It certainly is a German language TV series, but it is Austrian though... --Wernher 01:53, 16 Nov 2004 (UTC)
replies: text: True, but I'd vote to keep it in the current category for now, at least until a hypothetical "Austrian TV Series" category exists. BigHaz 01:59, 16 Nov 2004 (UTC)
thread_title: Category:German television series?

message: the german wiki page states:
"Die Serie wurde in bereits über 100 Ländern ausgestrahlt. Weiter verbreitet hat sich einzig Baywatch."
which i think translate to something like:
"kommissar rex is the 2nd most successful series in the world being shown in more than 100 countries only being surpasses by baywatch."
(i don't speak german)
can anybody verify this?

:The translation is correct, although there's no indication of exactly where the information is sourced from. I'm having difficulty pulling up the links from the German 'pedia for some reason, and really should be finishing an assignment anyway, but I'll keep at it unless anyone else can work some magic.

thread_title:  kommissar rex's success 

message: The comment about it has been tagged with 'citation needed' but the Newstopia article already has a Youtube clip of Inspector Herring linked to it. (The clip is an early one though.)

thread_title:  Inspector Herring parody 

message: It appears that Rex's apparent death may have been a cliffhanger afterall... I came across a news piece dated over a week ago reports that Kommissar Rex is now back with a new season and airs on Tuesdays on RAI 1. Tarmo Tanilsoo (talk) 12:23, 19 March 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Update: I watched Inspector Rex yesterday on RAI 1. Yes, it's a new season. I think it is safe to assume that Rex did not get killed off. Tarmo Tanilsoo (talk) 07:57, 25 March 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  New season coming? 

message: One of the episodes, called "Sisi" touched on the myth associated with the Elizabetb, Empress of Austria-Hungary a.k.a Sisi and focused on a woman who was obsessed with being like her. She had murdered the coachman because he asked "the wrong question" and was hiding in the palace trying to replicate Sisi's life. The placing for the show was at the end of the show's 5th season.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by SimonMackay (talk • contribs) 13:34, 19 March 2009 (UTC)

message: Some of the films are based on Austrian scripts, so they are rather remakes. Xx236 (talk) 08:56, 22 November 2017 (UTC)

message: Does anyone know anything about broadcasts of Inspector Rex in the UK? The page suggests that it was broadcast by FIVE (now Channel 5), but Channel 5 says they didn't and have no record of this.  --HarryNikki4ever (talk) 17:06, 21 May 2018 (UTC)
