De eigenzinnige en gedreven politierechercheur Witse krijgt de meest uiteenlopende moordzaken voorgeschoteld. Witse en zijn team van rechercheurs en agenten van de federale recherche, moordsectie Halle gaan tot het uiterste om deze misdaden op te lossen. Met soms grotere persoonlijke gevolgen dan gedacht.

Witse is a Dutch language crime drama produced by Belgian broadcaster VRT and broadcast on their één channel. It is also shown on BVN. First broadcast in 2004, as of 2010 the programme comprises eight series with a ninth and final series planned for 2012. It stars Hubert Damen as the eponymous Witse, a driven inspector in the Belgian federal police based in Halle. It is one of the most popular Flemish television programmes with some 1.6 million viewers.

There are also Witse books. The first three were based on the last two episodes of each season, but since 2010 every six months a brand new story is published, written and invented by established Belgian writers, as Bob Van Laerhoven and Bart Van Lierde.

The music for Witse is composed by Steve Willaert.
