My Netflix Conundrum
27 November 2022
I am not sure whether I have to be happy or extremely disappointed that Netflix has decided to give platform to such shows. I mean, there was a time when I could look at the ratings and tell (by a good certainty) if a show is worth watching. Now it is impossible, "thanks" to a bunch of reviews and reviewers who are not the audience of these shows, but watch it anyway just because it is on Netflix. Let me put it another way: I know for a fact that many many people like me started watching Nordic Noir series thanks to the intelligent recommendation systems of IMDB and similar platforms. How else would I find the masterpieces like Bron/Broen or Forbrydelsen. But now I have to go by the try trial and error, and thank the gods that I do that. Thank the gods I didn't miss this one.

Bottom line: This is another grreat Nordic Noir crime show. Watch it and F the ratings.
