A great TV-show..
6 May 2014
This is pure joy. Not in subject matter(very dark) but as entertainment. And that is what it's all about. This is so far from the Standard and Practices confined drop dead boring common US TV-productions.. The dialog makes the persons "real" and so does the story lines too.. And the actors are second to non.. The stories are for the most part based on real cases, and although the drama sometimes surpasses reality it doesn't go beyond the realm of reason.. One member of the team has been given a tad to much clairvoyance, for my taste. But he is very well written, and the execution by Lars Brygmann makes it OK(he is fantastic). It is a true testament to Denmark that they manage to have so many actors, that are so good.. Also very fun to see many of the actors that had roles in the epic series "Matador" having a go in this series.. I highly recommend to watch this series.. And if one really wants to understand Scandinavia, watch "Matador" too...
