Series 1 good, series 2 not so good

I enjoyed the first series but the second series was a dud. Firstly, Greg Wise's ATROCIOUS American accent irritated me every single time he was on screen, which unfortunately was most of the time. Kim Cattrall was sorely underused and did not come across as even remotely Presidential. The whole adoption storyline came to an abrupt stop and no closure for either the daughter, real mother, adopted parents or us the viewers. There were too many red herrings - i.e. the Chief Alva being the leak/spy/mole. And it was very slow. Also, why Johanne's husband never thought to ask her about her relationship with Greg Wise's character despite being told by several people that something bad went down, I will never know. Also, if the US President went missing even for a nano second the world would descend on Stockholm so fast and hard yet we hardly saw anything happen except the Secret Service and FBI squabble amongst themselves. Disappointing. I can see why there's no third series.
