Agatha Christies Hjerson

An excellent entertainment when you want a relaxing evening in the TV-sofa. I particularly like the somewhat surreal feeling of it, which runs through acting, as well as settings, lighting and colours. To be recommended!

It's not a dark thriller if that is what you are expecting, but a great feel-good puzzlemystery. I was a bit sceptical at first but found myself falling in love with Alström and Rheborgs characters the more I saw of them. I think it is funny and interesting at the same time. Can't wait for more episodes in the future!

So this wasn't a groundbreaking detective drama. The mystery plot was very light (it kept me interested though).

But I thoroughly enjoyed this two mainactors humor.

Not the best acting seen, but I was entertained.

An interpretation that does not take itself to seriously and neither should the observer. Enjoy it for what it is.

Rheborg does a good job in this series. His female counterpart provides little weight to the series, In addition to forcing you through a pointless and completely uninteresting relationship.

Regardless of the sometimes failing story and questionable characters it is well produced and an entertaining 8 episodes providing something a bit different for being a Swedish crime drama.

I watched this via Channel 4 in the UK in 2022, and have had a look at the current reviews, which seem to have been placed by 1) people with some vested interest in the show who give it vapid rave reviews, and 2) people who for some reason have an almost pathological hatred for the show. It's certainly not a 10-star blockbuster, but nor is it a 1-star mega-turkey. To be sure, the writers have absolutely no clue how to actually construct a bona fide mystery plot, and apparently no interest in doing so; their aim is to create quirky characters and spin a certain light, escapist mood, and there they succeed. So, yes, most of the crime plots make no sense, and the "solutions" don't hold water...but...the show is so damned entertaining! I'm going to give it a generous 7 stars, and yes, I would watch a second season.
