There is good news for fans of foreign shame and amusing mockumentaries: The third season of “The Discounters” started on Amazon Prime on November 22nd. The work-shy Kolinski team from Altona now has to find their way around the food discounter in Hamburg-Billstedt – and of course the retail employees have a lot of embarrassing moments there too. Things will also be really tight financially for boss Thorsten in season three, Jonas has to deal with bullies and Titus has worse chances with Lia than ever before.
A total of ten episodes of around 25 minutes each were filmed for the new season. The improv humor that is so popular with fans was retained, which is created by the fact that there are no fixed dialogues. In addition, some stars have a guest appearance in the series. For example, Heinz Strunk can be seen as a strict supermarket manager.

Emil Belton, Oskar Belton and Bruno Alexander directed again. The series was produced by Christian Ulmen and Carsten Kelber. Here is the trailer for the third season:
