Here is a short list of pros and cons, based on the first two episodes:
Pros: 1) The show has good, dark atmosphere which manages to save even the biggest fillers (especially in the second episode). 2) Mikac's crocodile jacket.
Cons: 1) 2D cliche characters that speak and act alike; and the unbelievable attempts of characterizations like when the protagonist is talking (with extremely bad Serbian accent) that he was born and raised in the projects (Belgrade) and was fighting the '90s wars. 2) The ever-lasting Achilles' heel of Serbian cinema - sound: which is particularly bad when the main character is mumbling his lines. 3) The music is so inadequate throughout the episodes, it seems that the soundtrack is from another show. I am sure that the ending song will be the ringtone of many mobile phones, but it just sounds cheap and "ad hoc". 4) The whole show is trying so bad to look like "True Detective" but with so little money and skill that the viewer is constantly reminded that he didn't get the real Barbie doll for Christmas, but an ugly Chinese copy instead.

After first episode,i was excited to continue but my expectation did not match sequel to the series
Authentic and thrilling, first episode leaves you wanting to watch more episodes. Acting is great, good job for the casting crew.
Reviewers here seem to be potraying Mocvara as low fi True Detective, seems unfair. Obviously a show as successful as TD will influence subsequent works but this one can stand on its own two feet with a decent plot. Sure, the sound production is terrible but in the age of radical political correctness it's just refreshing to see a show where everyone smokes, where men are men and women are women and where cops still beat bad guys up to exact justice.
Goran Bogdan is an amazing actor. It takes only one episode to realize that he is a real jew. I liked the first two episodes and can't wait to see the whole show.
