For some reason this show is addictive. We just started watching it, but then couldn't stop. It is kind of confusing, especially as it displays on the streaming service description as an action/comedy. There are some weirdly funny parts, especially as they portray this as happening to a regular guy, just trying to live his life. The boss is abusing. The date is amusing. But the rest is pretty intense.

I think what is most interesting is that it really does portray how upsetting it could be to get caught up in a mess because of a terrorizing event.

The girl friend really is the best part of the show.

I was surprised that there is another Stockholm-based TV series after Sthlm Requiem. The story is different, and watching this series was interesting until the end. The problem with this series is that it is short and it felt like it was pushed to be shorter. This can make the audience miss some points and create plot holes. It could be much better if there were 6-7 episodes. I am wondering why they had to make it only 4 episodes. The Bridge and Young Wallander's star Adam Palsson made me watch this series. He is an outstanding actor and he is acting great as usual. I hope there will be a second season with more episodes without plot holes.

A lot of it made no sense. The writing is crap. And frankly the characters aren't all that likeable. I've seen the actors in other roles. But, here they are bland versions of themselves.

If this is what passes for good tv I'll pass. It is trite. Poorly written. Jumps back and forth, frankly it's a pain to keep up. I watched the entire series, hoping something real would happen. Nothing really did.

Bored cops. Scarred ex-journalist. There was an older British show called 'The Wrong Man's', which was far better written and the characters were just better developed.

There are many things that simply just don't add up. Watch it if you're bored. But, don't expect much.

This series is described as an action comedy. Having suffered through episode one, I can report a total of about one minute of action, mainly consisting of running down staircases and escalators. The comedy, then? Nowhere to be found, I would say. Literally none at all. The rest is mainly an awkward date with a very unlikely "professor" and constant bickering with a hysterical news anchor in dire need of a punch in the face...

On the other hand, totally unnatural dialogue, stilted direction, inept editing and bad acting are abundant. Did I mention annoying "music" and bad CGI?

As the saying goes, I wish whoever wrote this mess good luck with their next job - because I very much doubt he or she will ever work in film or TV again.

Actors are doing a decent job and I'd watch them on other movies/shows. But the characters made no sense, to the point where it's ridiculous. Unless this is perhaps a parody and I completely missed that.

Show fails to explain how the main character survived until his age, and who dresses him in the morning. People have to tell him when to open his mouth, a door, hang up the phone, hide, or run. He stutters, freezes, asks impossibly dumb questions, and generally acts as if he had a lobotomy, and I'm not talking about the actor, I'm talking about the character and the way it's been scripted. Another piece of propaganda thinly veiled as entertainment. No, thanks.
