8:15 p.m., ZDFneo, Friesland: Der Blaue Jan, crime comedy
Four disguised men armed with harpoons run through Leer’s old town and scare everything that gets in their way. The “Blaue Jans” are particularly interested in women. A popular old custom among the locals. But this year the “Blaue Jan” fell into disrepute. During the commotion in the town hall, Gesa Dieken, the city’s women’s representative, is killed with a whaling harpoon. The assumption that one of the four masked “Blaue Jans” is involved in the murder is obvious.

Joko and Klaas challenge an entire station together. The aim is to stand up to the entire ProSieben universe – everyone is invited to the showdown. ProSieben alone decides on opponents and games.

Just now, however, new neighbors arrive who first knock down Ove’s mailbox: a goofy husband (Tobias Almborg), his pregnant wife Parvaneh (Bahar Pars) and their two daughters. Of course, Ove initially meets them in anything but a cordial manner. The quick-witted Parvaneh, however, is not impressed by the monster.

Martin Manz (Albrecht Schuch) always thought he was a good person. He is popular and well-known in his village. That’s why he doesn’t mention that he ran over the daughter of his best friend Frank Eberhardt (Johannes Allmayer) while drunk. Because what’s the point of a confession? The terrible accident happened and cannot be undone. Martin deeply regrets it. Miriam Eberhardt is in a coma, but the doctors are optimistic. Martin wants to try to make up for his guilt without burdening those around him with the brutal truth. But in order to keep his secret, he has to push his limits.
