First time watching this series, despite being from Denmark.
I think what I like and what other people seems to like but may not know, is that all the cases are from real life police work, by the special Danish task Rejseholdet. And AFAIK, Rejseholdet operates in much the same way IRL. Only the persons and their personal lives are fictional.
I've only watched 7 episodes so far, but I'm already hooked. A few episodes haven't been so exiting, but I prefer reality over fiction in this case. There are a few minor issues, like I'm not sure it was possible to do DNA tests this quick in the 90's. But then again, each episode needs to function on a time line for TV.
The series is a lot more Sherlock Holmes than action, of which there's very little of. And then again cases are not solved as unrealistic as in CSI etc. It's a quiet kind of slow speed detective series.
