Review of Wisting

Wisting (2019– )
8/10
Pleasant and solid series from Norway - again
23 September 2019
Compared to the Swedes and Danes, the Norwegians entered the world of distinct crime series somewhat later, this decade, but e.g. Øyevitne, Kodenavn Hunter, Frikjent were all catchy and worth watching. Now, Wisting has carried on in the field of international crime and related links, with FBI´s involvement, although the main venue is still Norway - with "tardy" people and beautiful landscape. Sven Nordin is really a good actor (I remembered him from Valkyrien, the concept of which was not so interesting), but the script here is skilfully prepared so that his character is always present/visible without unnecessary domination over supporting cast.

I wonder if other seasons are coming, but bearing in mind the present one´s big success, I would not be surprised. And I will be ready :)

PS Season 2 is intense and thrilling as well, with many twists and turns as for the wrongdoer´s person.

PPS Season 3 is intense, with international cooperation still in place, although the case itself is less interesting, but apparently realistic.
