Hvide Sande

Definitely not the usual quality one has come to expect from a Danish tv-series. As a crime show, it's very poorly written. The plot is weak, and the 'investigation' is almost laughable. Some of the dramatic events and their resolve are extremely illogical and makes the main characters seem pretty stupid. The characters overall are very stereotypical and not at all believable. The show feels like a poor-mans version of the british 'Death in Paradise' without the intentional comic relief.

Thought this was a good series with out of the norm story line. The fun banter between the two and Molly the dog was nice. Really enjoyed it. Hope there is a second series.

This series is obviously made to promote Hvide Sande a coastal town with lots of german tourists. That is why Carsten Bjørnlund portrays a german policeman and there is a lot of german dialogues as well.

This is not a typical dark underplayed crime/drama series that we are used to see from the nordic countries. In fact this is the opposite.

The story is not very interesting and not convincing, but the acting is pretty good and the chemistry between the mainactors are good as well.

For me there is to much product placement and a weak story in this series.

This series required one to leave one's brain at the entrance. Fully awake, this would be impossible to watch as it has so many plot holes, coincidences, fortuitous events, impossibilities.

Added to this was the fact that the murderer was clear from the beginning of episode five and there was very little tension left to keep one watching.

The premiss was a cliché - mismatched couple who dislike each other have to pretend to be husband and wife. Their grubbing around and interrogations of locals were enough to raise suspicions that they weren't what they seemed and they did.

I stuck with it to the bitter end but advise others to see something better if it's available.

Nice relaxing TV. Attractive location and a good yarn. I love the normality of most of the scandi acting, they're not so self-conscious as the brits, or as politically correct in these awful times. Go Denmark 🇩🇰
