There are lurching moments throughout all three series, untypical of a lot of US TV; in particular, a rape scene wedged into all kinds of video nasties in series three left me squirming. That said, The Killing's standout player is Linden's partner, Holder, played by Swedish/American actor Joel Kinnaman, last seen as Robocop (yikes) and far more interesting than Jan Meyer. When help finally does arrive, it may not be all he expected, and he has his own reasons to continue his investigation. So grab a blanket, turn off the lights, and settle down with one of these great Scandinavian noir movies or TV shows. by Jessica Suess December 22, 2019, 7:10 am. (I should probably add here that he is the spit of this wonderful Romanian rapper I dated for about six months – in fact, that's why I started watching it in the first place – but he's genuinely very, very good.) Scandinavia’s answer to the strong female cop genre that has become popular.

Nothing tests a TV series like uprooting it to a new country and changing the language, so The Killing, the American remake of the Danish series Forbrydelsen, was never in for an easy ride.

Another example of the best of British crime dramas, Broadchurch is an exquisitely paced, intricately plotted exploration of a small-town murder. There are two seasons available on Amazon Prime. For me, a lot of this was about timing. While the murder of a boy is the primary plot driver, there’s much more to this show. It's up to the three-person police department to solve the crime.
