Fascinating world but a weak murder mystery


A lot of interesting stuff there but the story is a little boring.
Hopefully there will be another season.

I agree, I just watched episode 4. I don't feel any excitement or interest for much of it at the moment. I wish the story telling was a bit more linear, its all over the place. Literally the only thing keeping me watching right now is Joel Kinnaman's hot body, haha. I loved him in The Killing but this character seems a little flat and wooden

Do you not think his body was a bit odd? Obviously he's very muscular and skinny, but he somehow looked weak. Perhaps it's the cutting and dehydration that actors go through before shirtless scenes, the heavy use of steroids, the way he's tensing all the time, or something else, but he has a superficial look. Perhaps it's just because he's lanky.

Would I prefer his body over mine? Sure. However, he has an odd look.

Keep watching for me episode seven was a game changer, loving this show.

Lol, the way they portrayed him drinking and smoking all the time and never really having the time to work out kinda pulls my suspension of disbelief. Unless they specifically design sleeves not get fat in the future xD xD
