Wer liebt ihn nicht, Kommissar Franz Eberhofer mitsamt seiner ganzen Bagage, der Oma, dem Papa, dem Rudi und der Susi? Dank ihm hat das Verbrechen in Niederkaltenkirchen keine Chance! Nun gibt es sieben Filmhörspiele mit Sebastian Bezzel, Simon Schwarz und Lisa Maria Potthoff in einer großen Fan-Box – sauspannend und verdammt komisch.

2Was gibt‘s zum Essen?" "Nix." Paukenschlag am Eberhofer-Hof: Die Oma streikt! Nach gefühlt 2000 Kuchen und noch mehr Schweinsbraten, Semmelknödeln und Kraut beschließt die Oma, sich der familiären Fürsorge zukünftig zu entledigen. Chaos pur! Papa Eberhofer, Franz, Leopold und Susi sollen doch bitteschön endlich mal lernen, sich selbst zu versorgen. Ausgerechnet jetzt übernimmt Susi auch noch vorübergehend Niederkaltenkirchens Rathaus als stellvertretende Bürgermeisterin und reduziert mit ihrer neugewonnenen Macht Franz‘ Posten kurzum auf halbtags, damit er sich zukünftig um Sohn Pauli kümmert.

Franz Eberhofer ist im Stress, denn an allen Ecken und Enden seines Lebens brennt es gleichzeitig: erst die Zwangsbeförderung, die ihn nach München führt, dann die Susi, die endlich einmal die Hochzeitsglocken läuten hören will. Und als wäre das nicht genug, taucht zu allem Unglück im alten Auto von Franz' Vater die Leiche einer Frau auf. Das Filmhörspiel zu Rita Falks Bestseller "Sauerkrautkoma", in gewohnt grandioser Besetzung mit Sebastian Bezzel, Lisa Maria Potthof und Simon Schwarz - was für eine Gaudi!
