 In the Netherlands, the series (both reruns and new episodes) is  always aired by RTL4 on Friday evenings, not counting airings on  Belgian channels which are also received in the Netherlands.  However, when live soccer matches threatened the viewing figures for  some Baantjer reruns (which are known to usually score about as high  as new episode, which is relatively unique), the series was  temporarily moved to Tuesday evenings. Also, since late 2005,  channel RTL7 also airs reruns of episodes on Saturday evenings  (these are reruns of the episodes aired the Friday before; RTL7 is  known for rerunning RTL4s programs the day after).
