I thought the series was quite good! I was completely off the mark for the ending, so it was a fun surprise for me. It started off a little slow, but I was invested by episode 2. Nordic noir also has a certain vibe to it, so you need to be okay with a slow pace at times since it contributes to the atmosphere. It's a very specific mood that you see in many series like this.

Like the other positive reviewers note, I don't think the acting was bad at all. Being less emotive when you're playing a specific type of character in certain plot/setting has its place and this show is one of them. In everyday life, people aren't overly expressive and in my option, the acting felt very natural. To me Leyla's character was intentionally masking emotions. Sometimes people who have suffered significant trauma cope by numbing themselves out. She was self-medicating so she clearly still had unresolved issues.

I hate to be snarky, but one of the reviewers stated that a lot of questions were left unanswered and there were some plot holes, but had they actually watched the entire show instead of a select few episodes, they would have found that many of their questions would have been answered. I believe I only had one question I was left with at the end, but I may just have missed something.
