Top Dog

I like the deep plot with all of it's various agendas that merge together. There is a major plot hole and that is the almost total absence of the Police. Two civilians, one a corporate lawyer and the other an ex con. With seemingly separate agendas and from different social classes act as Detectives and find that their moral views merge, and maybe pass each other.

... year upon year, there are many productions of this genre.. this one of the better ones... all facets working well together bring an entertaining series into two seasons so far

... several great characters have been removed, so if going now into a third-season-series, they shall need be replaced by others hopefully as good... getting good reviews from many viewers, rightfully so, as it's not that easy a task as this show makes it appear

... another season up to similar standards not much to ask, but never that easy to achieve... this part of the world knows how to create entertaining-crime-dramas... keep-'em-coming.

Loved both seasons - in fact they improved as the plot unfolded. On a par with The Bridge and The Killing in my view and the casting, script, acting and direction were all of a high standard. It would be nice to think that there's a third season on the slate as the ending of season 2 leaves it open.

Good pace throughout with no pointless fillers or holes and a very interesting storyline with some interesting side plots and personal intrigues. Thankfully not festooned with time-hopping which seems to be very much de rigueur these days. The sub- titling was well done too and this can be a problem with some of the Scandi films and series.

Best binge watched but I heartily recommend it.

The characters lack personality. There's not much to like, the criminals are boring and the lawyers bland and predictable. The dialogue has no individuality and the central criminal is dull. The plot is OK and telling the story from both sides has merit but it was not enough to sustain my interest.

Fascinating storyline: surprising plot twists and lots of despicable characters in a bleak winter city in Sweden.

Captivating actors: truly believable when they start digging in the dirt, uncovering layer after layer, discovering lies and finding truths, but not really knowing how to deal with both. The good are not so good, the bad are not so bad, and the right thing to do, might not be the right thing to do... It's often not so easy to change one's life, even if one really wants to. There are friends, family and colleagues holding you back (sometimes at gunpoint); there are loved ones you can not leave.

I binged both seasons in three days, and now I'm hoping for a third one.
