In view of the innovative concept of the series, the Audience Council believes that it has the potential to counterbalance American doctor series. The series offers contemporary content and authentic dialog in dialect.
In the Council's opinion, the characters are multi-layered and offer interesting constellations and development opportunities. However, not all of them are equally plausible and some are too clichéd or caricatured. In addition, it considers the pacing with many scenes and rapid cuts to take some getting used to.
However, the Audience Council notes that the problems have been recognized. It also recommends that those responsible examine the possibility of moving the program to another slot.
The series was also highly praised by the Tages-Anzeiger's culture section. In the October 23 issue, film editor Florian Keller came to the conclusion that the "cinematic" series, "the pure opposite of a slowly rippling telenovela", was simply in the wrong slot.
