Apagão em Estocolmo

I don't understand all the hate this is getting. It may be because it is categorized incorrectly. I would list this as thriller, drama, romance. The action and triller elements felt similar to The Night Agent or Slow Horses (but way less gory). I watched it with an English dub so I have no idea if the original voice inflections were different, but I had no issues with the acting. I liked Mille. Arthur was serious but that was his character. It did have some romance but I thought it worked well and wasn't forced like a lot of American action movies are nowadays.

I enjoyed it.

I also like that it was just 4 episodes.

A lot of it made no sense. The writing is crap. And frankly the characters aren't all that likeable. I've seen the actors in other roles. But, here they are bland versions of themselves.

If this is what passes for good tv I'll pass. It is trite. Poorly written. Jumps back and forth, frankly it's a pain to keep up. I watched the entire series, hoping something real would happen. Nothing really did.

Bored cops. Scarred ex-journalist. There was an older British show called 'The Wrong Man's', which was far better written and the characters were just better developed.

There are many things that simply just don't add up. Watch it if you're bored. But, don't expect much.

Actors are doing a decent job and I'd watch them on other movies/shows. But the characters made no sense, to the point where it's ridiculous. Unless this is perhaps a parody and I completely missed that.

Show fails to explain how the main character survived until his age, and who dresses him in the morning. People have to tell him when to open his mouth, a door, hang up the phone, hide, or run. He stutters, freezes, asks impossibly dumb questions, and generally acts as if he had a lobotomy, and I'm not talking about the actor, I'm talking about the character and the way it's been scripted. Another piece of propaganda thinly veiled as entertainment. No, thanks.

For some reason this show is addictive. We just started watching it, but then couldn't stop. It is kind of confusing, especially as it displays on the streaming service description as an action/comedy. There are some weirdly funny parts, especially as they portray this as happening to a regular guy, just trying to live his life. The boss is abusing. The date is amusing. But the rest is pretty intense.

I think what is most interesting is that it really does portray how upsetting it could be to get caught up in a mess because of a terrorizing event.

The girl friend really is the best part of the show.

I was surprised that there is another Stockholm-based TV series after Sthlm Requiem. The story is different, and watching this series was interesting until the end. The problem with this series is that it is short and it felt like it was pushed to be shorter. This can make the audience miss some points and create plot holes. It could be much better if there were 6-7 episodes. I am wondering why they had to make it only 4 episodes. The Bridge and Young Wallander's star Adam Palsson made me watch this series. He is an outstanding actor and he is acting great as usual. I hope there will be a second season with more episodes without plot holes.
