When you see a product name you can be sure money was transferred until proven otherwise.

Could also be that there's no rules on not showing brands. I can't remember having seen amy cover-up of logos or brand names in any German production unlike US ones were you can regularly see car logos being covered

I would agree and I guess German tv is more affordable than Hollywood, so I shouldn't be surprised but I still am a little bit. Or curious at least.

That show is so good Iโ€™m so happy they brought it back for another season

I was unreasonably mad when I saw the documentary on the real guy the show is based on. All that stuff about security and programming in the show is bullshit. The dude just set up a WordPress with some plugins. His customer database was an Excel sheet. The only "revolutionary" thing he did was to make nice photos for his drugs. He thought the German police were laughably incompetent to have taken so long to catch him because he was pretty stupid with his own security.
