Agatha Christies Hjerson

I honestly don't understand why people hate this show? And why is everyone cringing? This is the best Scandinavian murder show I've seen in years! I love murder mysteries and I grew up reading (and watching) Agatha Christie's work. I'm also a huge Bryan Fuller fan and this show has some of the same qualities as "Pushing Daisies". It's not really similar, but it's got something to do with the colors, the sunshine, the somewhat strange dialogue... I can't explain it. But I guess it's this vibe that makes some people compare it to a kids show. I don't see that, but I do see the quirkiness. I hope they make thousands of episodes. I could watch this every day. I love, love, love it!

I think its worth watching, only two episodes in yet, but still. Its a special style to it that corresponds well with the Agatha Christie feeling, imo. May not be for everyone, and if u expected a standard criminal show, you need to stop expecting that!

I watched this via Channel 4 in the UK in 2022, and have had a look at the current reviews, which seem to have been placed by 1) people with some vested interest in the show who give it vapid rave reviews, and 2) people who for some reason have an almost pathological hatred for the show. It's certainly not a 10-star blockbuster, but nor is it a 1-star mega-turkey. To be sure, the writers have absolutely no clue how to actually construct a bona fide mystery plot, and apparently no interest in doing so; their aim is to create quirky characters and spin a certain light, escapist mood, and there they succeed. So, yes, most of the crime plots make no sense, and the "solutions" don't hold water...but...the show is so damned entertaining! I'm going to give it a generous 7 stars, and yes, I would watch a second season.

So this wasn't a groundbreaking detective drama. The mystery plot was very light (it kept me interested though).

But I thoroughly enjoyed this two mainactors humor.

Not the best acting seen, but I was entertained.

Agatha Christie books, movies etc are made in a certain way. The jokes, the murders, the murderers. You can't compare this series with another crime series. It's two different worlds.

This is not a bad series, it's just not for everyone.
