Season 1 was passable stuff, with some decent action and nice Nordic scenery. The plot involves a female profiler (with 2 girls,1 female autistic) who's divorced, as she deals with a series of murders and the popular plot device, a serial killer of notable gay people. Highly-unlikely and could have been done in 6 (instead of 8) episodes.
Season 2 takes a nosedive in terms of reality & plot: the U. S. President visits and disappears (kidnapping) on Swedish soil. Our Profiler, Inger (now very pregnant via her not-so-swift cop boyfriend) stumbles onto an obscure clue & finally locates the Lady (president), played by the eminent Kim Cattrall. Apparently, a rogue element in the FBI has conspired to eliminate this ' POTUS'. With me so far? You probably know that the VP becomes POTUS by decree within a few hours of such an event, allowing for no gap in rulership. Anyway, a landing by Martians is more likely than any of this. I could write a better story for 4 episodes, instead of 8. However, I am watching both seasons in full, despite the unlikelihoods. So, its kind of fun, if not stalwart story-telling. 7/10.
