Huss

Can anyone explain to me exactly why the Riots and their aftermath is so pivotal in Huss? I got quite confused as to the relevance of these riots - and just exactly why they formed such a central psychodrama - to the series. I'm exactly like Katarina - who looked totally nonplussed at let's say some stage of the proceedings - without giving a spoiler!. If someone could give me a synopsis to why the four (?) Cops got each.other into such a pickle over these riots I would be grateful. Otherwise Huss wasn't bad as an insight into how Swedish rookie cops settle into their new jobs - even if one has a mother who is a top police officer. Wonder if the series had a police adviser? The Correction episode was powerful stuff. More Chicago -than small "l" liberal Sweden! David J Baird Melbourne Australia.

The demise of most TV series like films is a poor script and that's the big problem here. This appears to be a spin off or sequel to a 2008 series "Irene Huss", I never saw it. As a previous reviewer said, this series wants us to believe that a trainee cop is given all these special assignments, because the trainee is so intelligent and her mom is a high ranking police officer The lead character Katarina Huss makes plenty of dumb mistakes as would be expected from any trainee. If she had been a highly intelligent university student in criminology or a close subject, it would be more believable but this series jumps the shark. That she's the hero of the episodes is stupid.

I tend to enjoy European police procedurals, but other than some beautiful locations and a few good actors, watch "Beck" or "Wallander" (Swedish or British versions) if you want to see good Swedish police dramas.

Karin Franz Körlof is standout as Katarina Hoss in this binge watchable high quality TV series from Sweden. All the cast are good, and the direction is top notch. While the procedure maybe stretched beyond credibility at times and Katarina is too much of a loan wolf to be a real team player that's the whole point and you can't help but follow her progress... The plots are good, especially Episode Four which is edge of your seat working on several levels. Looking forward to Season Two.

I stream on D-Plus n they don't have any drama serie that I know about, exept thos one.

The idea is good. Modern policing from a trainees viewpoint ... pretty frightening.

What lets it down is Huss finding herself as part of a investigation team only days after having joined the uniformed force as a trainee.

It is the same in episode 2, although worse. Huss seems Hell bent on losing her job. Again she is drafted into the homicide team. Sleeps with the boss, joins a police vigilante team and constantly goes her own way and disobeys orders.

It continues in this vain and get worse throughout the series.

It is disappointing because the idea and crime stories deserved more.

The character of Huss is just not credible as is her involvement in the cases in the first few weeks of of her "training". The ending is just a joke.
