फ़ीचर्ड समीक्षाएं
Excellent mystery! I wasn't sure at first but was hooked by the end of the first episode.
Carl and the Dept. Q crew are all damaged in their own ways - physically, emotionally - but as they work through the case they slowly move towards healing, separately and together.
But not in a shmaltzy way - there is a lot of smartassery and snark. The characters' interactions are very often quite funny and the entire show has a rich vein of dark humour.
It is refreshing to see so many fully realized female characters who are neither stereotypically entirely nasty nor doormats.
I'm very interested in discovering more about Akram and what he really did in Syria.
I have never seen or read any of the source material so don't know how it compares but it is a great show with a twisty mystery and characters who develop and grow. A little human mess is interesting but full time 24/7 disaster in every episode gets boring after a couple of episodes, a pitfall this show avoids.

I haven't read the books, so I'm not here to police fidelity to source material. I'm judging Dept. Q on its own terms-and it absolutely holds its own. In fact, it's one of the more emotionally intelligent crime dramas I've seen in a while.
Carl Mørck and Akram Salim are the core of this show, and what makes it sing. Their relationship is neither flashy nor sentimental-it's tense, layered, and quietly magnetic. There's a clear echo of the classic Sherlock-Watson structure, but inverted and humanized. Mørck is a brilliant but emotionally broken detective-not a quirky genius, but a man hollowed out by trauma, leaning into detachment as a survival mechanism. Salim, like Watson, appears at first to be just the grounding presence-but there's more beneath the surface. He gives off a very specific "ex-military intelligence" vibe-composed, perceptive, precise. You can feel that he's been trained to watch, not just speak.
Even more compelling, though, is how closely their dynamic mirrors Disco Elysium's Du Bois and Kitsuragi. Mørck is the Du Bois figure: emotionally adrift, steeped in failure and regret, piecing himself together through the process of the investigation. Salim, like Kitsuragi, is measured, observant, and unfailingly competent-the quiet counterweight to Mørck's mess. Their relationship is not about dominance, but mutual orbit. Salim isn't just the "sidekick." He's the moral compass, the tether to reality, the one with dignity. And unlike many genre pairings, their mutual respect grows rather than being taken for granted.
As for the complaints floating around:
"It's too stylized." What does that even mean? The green-tinged grading gives the world a sickly, bureaucratic decay-it's a choice, and it serves the mood. This isn't meant to look "real." It's meant to feel wrong, like something's festering under the surface. Mission accomplished. (Also, what's that about criticizing a show because the color grading doesn't look real, is that a thing now?)
"The office is an old toilet." Yes. That's the point. Dept. Q is dumped-literally-into society's waste bin, abandoned and forgotten. It's metaphor, not bad set design.
"Characters are unlikable." Not everyone has to be likable. They need to be believable. These people have been scraped raw by loss and guilt. Their walls are up. Watch long enough, and you'll see the cracks-and the humanity.
In the end, Dept. Q isn't here to dazzle with twists or cater to nostalgia-it's here to sit with the mess. It's a show about grief, institutional neglect, and two men learning how to function while carrying unbearable weight. It's slow, yes-but deliberately so. The silences speak. The spaces between the action matter. If you're looking for a slick procedural with one-liners and gunfights, look elsewhere. But if you want something moody, character-rich, and quietly devastating, this series doesn't just deserve a watch-it deserves to be felt.

I'm not ashamed to say that I binge watched this in just 2 days.
I couldn't stop. It was brilliant and I throughly enjoyed it. It was dark, thrilling, excellent writing and well acted, a stellar cast.
I do hope that there is a second series and the final episode was so exciting. I really hope that there is a second series.
I adore a crime thriller & it was definitely one of best series I've watched on Netflix so far this year. Bravo & very well done to all. I look forward to hearing that it's been renewed.
I gave the series a 10 out of 10 and I would highly recommend it. You won't regret it.

This is a dark piece of work. The lead nails the despondant, self hating yet brilliant detective. The rest of the cast have been cast brilliantly and the roles acted brilliantly. The story onfolds with just the right amount of flashbacks and character development. All, and I do mean all, is dirty, gritty and believable. This series is a credit to everyone involved in writing,acting and producing. I am left questioning how I approach my own life, my actions and misgivings. It was layered and thought provoking. I am.only on episode 6 so I imagine there is more goodness and darkness in store for me. I will attempt to add to this review in due course.
I'm so glad I gave Dept Q a chance because I couldn't stop watching it. I binged through all 9 episodes in just a few days. Dept Q is about brilliant cop named Carl Morck (Matthew Goode) who nobody seems to like. He's given the job to head up a new department full of misfits solving Edinburg's cold cases. It's a very compelling and gritty crime thriller that will keep you entertained throughout the season. There are some parts that are a little drawn out and a few too many flashbacks but for the most part it's a great new series from Netflix. I hope they plan on doing multiple seasons because it's that good.
