Fallet

Like for many, this just popped up on Netflix and I was expecting a dark, gritty, Nordic Noir, of which I am a fan.

This series brilliantly parodies the above genre, but like all good spoofs, it does it with soul, it does it with a genuine love of the subject.

Fallet is an enjoyable surprise. I was expecting a Wallander-like, dark, depressing Swedish noir but what I found is a great spoof on Swedish and British police procedural with some Scandinavian PC thrown in. Pray for a second season.

It's like a comedy version of The Bridge or The Killing but still has a proper storyline and I watched it in one sitting as each of the 8 episodes is only 30 minutes. The acting by Adam Godley and Lisa Hanni makes the most of a very good script. I really think you should see it !!

Didn't have anything better to watch so just decided to start this series and stop if I get bored or didn't find it to my liking. Once I started, I went through all the episodes in one sitting. The series plays out like a spoof of the dark Nordic crime thrillers which have brcome quite popular. The two lead characters are bumbling detectives who were forced to team up to solve a serial killer case to save their careers. They were slightly absurd but still believable. After a while, you'll find yourself rooting for them. While I found the ending to be predictable, it's still a fun ride. Worth a watch.

If you love a good spoof this is a must-watch. Goofy and very, very funny. As silly as this show is, it is intelligent humor and anyone with half a brain and sense of humor will find themselves laughing out loud. Casting is perfect and 'Bill' will steal your heart.
