Knallerfrauen (Eng: Fire-women) is a German sketch comedy series first aired in 2011. The series stars actress Martina Hill in the main role.[1] The sketches are unrelated and frequently depict absurd situations, often without any dialog.[1] The jokes are similar in part to the French sketch comedy series Vous les femmes.[1]

Knallerfrauen was so popular in China that a Chinese version was produced.[2]
