Every episode of Tatort ever, ranked from worst to best by thousands of votes from fans of the show. The worst episodes of Tatort!

Tatort is a long-running German/Austrian/Swiss, crime television series set in various parts of these countries. The show is broadcast on the channels of ARD in Germany, ORF 2 in Austria and SRF 1 in Switzerland. The first episode was broadcast on November 29, 1970. The opening sequence for the series has remained the same throughout the decades, which remains highly unusual for any such long-running TV series up to date. Each of the regional TV channels which together form ARD, plus ORF and SRF, produces its own episodes, starring its own police inspector, some of which, like the discontinued Schimanski, have become cultural icons. The show appears on DasErste and ORF 2 on Sundays at 8:15 p.m. and currently about 30 episodes are made per year. As of May 2023, 1239 episodes in total have been produced.

In einer Münchner Villa werden die Eltern eines kleinen Mädchens auf besonders brutale Weise ermordet. Die kleine Lena hat das Massaker überlebt. Sie wurde betäubt. Batic und Leitmayr finden sie schlafend in ihrem Schwebezelt im Garten. Das chinesische Au-pair-Mädchen Chi Ling hat die Nacht durchgetanzt. Sie erzählt den Kommissaren, dass Lena vor dem Mord von einem Weihnachtsmann gesprochen habe, der in der nächsten Nacht komme. Und tatsächlich zeigt eine Überwachungskamera einen Weihnachtsmann im nächtlichen Garten. Doch wie kam der Mann ins Haus? Hat Lena ihm die Tür geöffnet? Und welche Rolle spielt dabei Lenas Smartpuppe Senta?
