Huss

Can anyone explain to me exactly why the Riots and their aftermath is so pivotal in Huss? I got quite confused as to the relevance of these riots - and just exactly why they formed such a central psychodrama - to the series. I'm exactly like Katarina - who looked totally nonplussed at let's say some stage of the proceedings - without giving a spoiler!. If someone could give me a synopsis to why the four (?) Cops got each.other into such a pickle over these riots I would be grateful. Otherwise Huss wasn't bad as an insight into how Swedish rookie cops settle into their new jobs - even if one has a mother who is a top police officer. Wonder if the series had a police adviser? The Correction episode was powerful stuff. More Chicago -than small "l" liberal Sweden! David J Baird Melbourne Australia.

Karin Franz Körlof is standout as Katarina Hoss in this binge watchable high quality TV series from Sweden. All the cast are good, and the direction is top notch. While the procedure maybe stretched beyond credibility at times and Katarina is too much of a loan wolf to be a real team player that's the whole point and you can't help but follow her progress... The plots are good, especially Episode Four which is edge of your seat working on several levels. Looking forward to Season Two.

The idea is good. Modern policing from a trainees viewpoint ... pretty frightening.

What lets it down is Huss finding herself as part of a investigation team only days after having joined the uniformed force as a trainee.

It is the same in episode 2, although worse. Huss seems Hell bent on losing her job. Again she is drafted into the homicide team. Sleeps with the boss, joins a police vigilante team and constantly goes her own way and disobeys orders.

It continues in this vain and get worse throughout the series.

It is disappointing because the idea and crime stories deserved more.

The character of Huss is just not credible as is her involvement in the cases in the first few weeks of of her "training". The ending is just a joke.

I love this show, interesting characters, realistic crimes and reactions.

Its not exactly Scandi noir because it's city based - but it has the strong female characters of Scandi noir along with a pacey police procedural. I've no idea why it's not more highly rated, it's Definitely worth your time.

The acting is strong, there's a true underlying essence of how and why the police stick together in the worst of situations because no one should really need to make the decisions they do under extreme pressure of day to day policing issues, really it's no wonder Post traumatic stress disorder is so prevalent in the forces, realistically there's major issues with how it's set up.

This was really good. I like that they tried to make it very realistic. Like the series "The thin blue line". Very good. Where is season 2,3,4,5..?

Keep it up with this series!
