- StarsGeert VermeulenBen Van OstadeLudo BusschotsThis closest Flemish equivalent of "Third watch" (but 9 years older) is about the work of a Fire Department in a Belgian town, comprised mainly of volunteers but lead by a professional cadre, the grumpy Adjudant (as in France a rank just under Second Lieutenant) Maurice Haegeman being in daily charge and trying to impose a type of discipline even military professionals wouldn't stomach easily nowadays, under the authority of colonel Walter Halleux who is more concerned with political liaison, budget etc. Naturally the more personal aspects of life in the fire station (bunking, waiting...) and in some cases interwoven private lives also provide story lines, besides the various operations: fire alerts (false and true), kitty in a tree, removing a wasps nest etc.
- StarsJo De MeyereFrank AendenboomHans RoyaardsThe Dutch title means "The woods of Flanders", referring to the rustic setting of this costume drama about the complex context of a number of murders in 19th century Belgium before, during and after the German occupation in World War I. As journalist Constant Reynaert -an outcast as 'flamingant', political opponent of the monopoly of French as official language while the Flemish majority is Dutch- is determined to bring into the open, the grim plot ties in to the dirty secrets of that period's arrogant, de facto virtually omnipotent francophone elite in this eastern part of the constitutional kingdom - the dictatorial mayor, chevalier de Bellicourt, the maritally frustrated baron de Halleux, their families (including the mayor's bastard Cesar Priem, made the town's feared cop)... who prove very good in covering it all up, even manipulating a judicial inquiry.
- CreatorRita HolstJon LindströmStarsMarika LagercrantzPer MattssonHarriet AnderssonAs a prosecutor, Emma Derkert does not only rely on evidence, but also on her emotions.

When the carefully crafted plans start to fail the danger is more clear and present than anyone expected.
- StarsWard de RavetWilly De GreefMieke BouveIn each episode, experienced police commissioner Roos (hence the title) and his two assistants (in Dutch called inspecteurs, literally 'inspectors', in English rather equivalent to detective sergeants) of the Belgian national police investigate and solve one serious crime (sometimes with other linked crimes), usually a murder or kidnapping.
- StarsAndré van DeudekomDina PadillaRik LaunspachThis historical costume drama plays in the Dutch Indies (present Indonesia). The province of Acej, a peninsula of the densely forested giant island of Sumatra, is fomenting with Muslim separatist unrest (it did so again very recently) which is serious enough to cause colonial garrison troops to be attacked, but hard to put down as the inscrutable natives, especially the elite, doesn't play it overtly; although the lower ranks are filled by natives, most of the European cadres lack even enough mastery of the language to feel the pols of their own troops. Yet as a mighty consortium in The Hague decides to act on geological probability of oil reserves right there, it uses its influence with the higher level of the colonial government to order a military convoy to bring the ambitious young geological explorer Frederik Moree immediately to the most promising lake, in the middle of rebel-infested territory, even though the field officers consider this a virtual suicide mission. Furthermore there are tensions amongst the expedition members, even resentment against an officer who asked his transfer hither after an incident elsewhere that got him a yellow reputation.
