This is probably the worst criminal drama ever produced. It's just a overly dramatised cop series with could probably be the worst acting in Swedish history. Every single person is so extremely cliche it physically hurts to watch this crap and in the end it has absolutely nothing to do with the original, and brilliant, TV show from the 80s. Spend your time more wisely and avoid this production!
I watched this only because Nicke Andersson made the music. The music is great and therefore it gets a higher rating.
(Sorry about the weird accent mark over 'e' in Hassėl, but IMDb does some automatic spelling and changes Hassėl to "Hassle" otherwise) If you're a fan of the "real" Roland Hassėl from early 90's, you'll get deeply disappointed.
Except for the name, this new "Hassėl" has NOTHING in common with the old series.
The personalities are not the same. They have just taken a few names, Hassėl, Ruda, Simon - but they have nothing in common with the old ones.
The stories do not have the same mood or manner. The story is over complicated, exaggerate, and giving a very distant perspective from reality - As opposed to the simple stories in the old Hassėl.
Recognizing Stockholm is not the same. In the old series, there were nice views of Stockholm, many places you could recognize. Here the camera is dizzy, they almost never show the surroundings without blurring the images.
If you have seen the old Hassėl and liked it, you will most likely get very disappointed if you see this. You'll get annoyed that they have stolen the name, but nothing from the feeling of the old Hassėl and nothing from the personalities.
If you haven't seen the old Hassėl, its also unlikely that you will like this series.
A piece if advise - just leave Hassėl 2017 unseen.

Only good thing about this is the music. Unrealistic, overdramatized and bad acting. Do not waste your time watching this. I gave i three stars for the effort and the music. The swedes are usually very good at making quality tv-shows.
