I'd started watching this last year (1st season), but only did about 4-5 episodes.

I was going to rewatch it and finish the 1st season before starting the second, but those pricks at Comcast are charging $3 an episode for previous seasons now. I'm so glad the powers that be allowed Comcast to buy NBC/Universal. Service providers like them should never be allowed to own content creators, and apparently their "concessions" to not charge for such expired early this year, but I digress.

At any rate, I've been watching the 2nd season. Intense show, and so far I'm impressed. I think I read one reviewer stating that it was the new Breaking Bad. Not too far off!

Hmmm. I only watched the pilot. Somehow, I couldn't get past the idea that somebody gave a gun to the lead character. I just felt like she was going to endlessly annoy me. Does that feeling go away in subsequent episodes?

And it's expensive, too. I want to say four bucks an episode on Amazon for HD.

I want Holder and Linden back!

As for Sonya (Diane Kruger), yeah it took a couple of episodes to get used to the strangeness of the character. But yes, I got over it and actually kind of enjoy trying to anticipate the off-the-wall-ness of her

My sister raves about the show. I guess I'll give it another chance.

I like this show a lot, kinda liked the Tunnel too. 

I liked the scandinavian original

I've never looked for it. What service is it on?

Shit. Just saw FX didn't renew this for a 3rd season

 

Critics mostly liked it (some quite alot), but ratings just weren't there. Musta been a reason I didn't keep watching the 1st season, though most thought the 2nd season was an improvement.
