The Bridge

Glad to see that this one is not another crime/thriller focusing only on who did it. There's more to it than I imagined.

Genial, fantástica e intrigante

:( oh noes this one canceled too

Dammit The Bridge has been cancelled :'(

I finished this show a while ago but, convinced there was a third season for some reason, I didn’t write my review at the time. That’s unfortunate, because I feel like I had some things to say, most of which escapes me now.

I watched the first season of the original show and liked it for a while and then hated where it went. I had heard good things about the second season of the American remake to the point that I committed myself to watching both seasons.

For some reason, I could handle the insane plot twists of the first season more the second time around – it’s almost as if, having had the plot ruined for me by the original, my expectations were so low that this time I wasn’t offended or annoyed by where things went. And this makes me think that maybe I was a little hard on the Danish version.

But my big issue with the either version of the show remains and did not disappear in the second season of the American version: this show requires too much suspension of disbelief concerning the central mystery of the first season. I had issues along those lines in the second season as well. Alas, I did not write down notes and I’ve forgotten most of what I was annoyed about by this point.

But, for the most part, this was better than many other critically acclaimed shows on at the time, and I was willing to watch a third season that I believed existed.

Interesting pilot and as an aspie it's good to see one as a character in a serious role.

O boy I finally finished watching.. I should never have started. This was no Drama.. This shit is a full on Horror genre!
