Manhunt (2019 – ) Season 1
Detective Chief Inspector Colin Sutton tracks down a serial killer.
My thoughts: A well-written but dry exploration of the bureaucratic side of criminal investigations.
3.5/5
Dark Heart (2016 – 2018) Season 1
DI Will Wagstaffe and his team investigate horrifying and brutal attacks.
My thoughts: A little silly, a little cliche, a little cheesy.
2.5/5
Giri/Haji (2019)
A detective from Tokyo scours London for his missing brother, who’s been involved with the Yakuza and accused of murder.
My thoughts: Overly stylized and, at times, downright silly. Aims for Pulp Fiction but ends up more Boondocks Saints.
3/5
Craith/Hidden (2018-2022) Season 1
Police investigate when the body of a girl is found in a lake.
My thoughts: I found this one painfully slow-moving and generic.
3/5
Sommerdahl (2020 – ) Season 1
A love triangle between Dan Sommerdahl, his wife Marianne Sommerdahl and their best friend Flemming Torp occurs as they try to solves killings in Helsingør.
My thoughts: I can see how it might appeal to some, but I found it too soapy
