Firstly, given the other reviewer does a good enough post on the show I won't, but I really feel the need to address the one review as I do find it very insulting as a European. Yes dear poster, you are very right in saying yes the "Scandinavians did it again" as they have doled out some wonderful show over the past 12 years now, but here's the issue I have with that reply of yours. Maybe if the Scandinavians didn't seek to recover all the money that their shows cost to make from other nations in the European Union, they be better off, or if they didn't suddenly decide to have a bidding war with Amazon Prime, the BBC, C4 and netflix for the European rights, as Amazon lost season 3 of the Norwegian hit show Trapped because netflix offered more money.

Remember, till netflix and Amazon start throwing mad money they were quite content to take what the BBC/C4 offered to air their shows in Ireland and the United Kingdom, now the BBC/C4 don't bother as it's cheaper to get American TV shows.

The quality of this series (1 season so far), is above average in teems of acting, characters and believability. The 'bleak' yet atmospheric mood of the show holds your attention and despite a few minor flaws (flashbacks only become clear in context at the very end), it is refreshing to watch a crime serious that isn't predictable. The actors pull off their roles very nicely and the dialogue and interpersonal relationships well developed, so can empathize and yet see their flaws realistically. It's great to have such strong female characters and yet not make a big deal of it, or at the expense of the male roles. Even the young actors were fine and the theme of wolf protection versus rural development was presented in a way that wasn't too heavy-handed either way. It there is another season, I hope they can maintain the integrity and authenticity (and originality) of this one. Highly watchable and informative as well. I love and support any efforts to save or re-introduce wolves (and other native species) back into their natural habitat, so I declare my bias here.

Seeing no reviews for this brilliant series is crime against European cinematography.

The acting, the plot complexity pulling you in instantly aware you won't be able to get it right until the end, characters portraying all parts of society - the series is not shying away from all the not so glamorous aspects of average life (the drying rack in living room screams they are just like me), noir setting giving that mysterious shred of doubt that makes viewers bing watch the series to find out who did it but also because we don't want to leave this strange world yet.

Fantastic blend of science and crime that conveys moral of the story about humans impact on nature we cannot afford to lose yet we are so quick to slip into ignorance.

Can't wait for second season!
