Oh no!!!! Why did they have to do a remake of this series? The original was great, there was no need to mess around with it.

Last Wed, things got really interesting, that is if you are into it.

The series is great, I didn't miss a single episode. I hope the remake is as good.

I'm confused. Now that we know who the bad guy is, and his issue is revenge, what does this have to do with the dead judge found on the bridge? Or are there two bad guys?

Yes and I can recommend the original ,if you are not afraid of subtitles... season 2 will be shown on danish and swedish tv this fall.

Spoiler
I've not seen the Season 1 finale. I'll downgrade my enthusiasm by saying this show is not great, but watchable because of the interesting characters.
The entire idea behind the symbolism of the dead body on the Bridge composed of a U.S. judge and a prostitute from Mexico, a killer who bemoans women being abused across the border and U.S. ambivalence, while he is the one who has been murdering them? I believe this is just a smoke screen for a revenge agenda based on the death of his wife and child, but it seems overly convoluted or it's just the actions of crazy person, no real logic needs to be applied. For a crime thriller, I don't consider this kind of plot to be brilliant, just messy.![]()
The season finale was rather low key...
As per my previous post, the story is messy, possibly weak, unless the body on the bridge was left by someone other than Kenneth Hastings, the former FBI agent who lost his wife and son in a car accident on the bridge. Regardless, there is enough character interest (Diane Kruger, Demian Bichir, and Ted Levine) there to have me check in on this series next season, but I can't unconditionally recommend it.
Just finished the series. I thought the last two episodes were ok. I can see where they are going on a couple different story fronts.
I think it will be interesting to see how or if they will get the FBI guy out of jail. However I am also worried they will play this out TOO long and drag it out.
I like the widow's roll as she is slowly, or rather quickly becoming a badass in her own right. Not to mention the new character we were introduced to at the super market.
I will play along and watch to see how it goes next season.
But I agree, the whole prostitute and judge scenario etc.
Oh, almost forgot we still have the serial killer/cops who like to party with the girls story line coming to the for front also. Makes me wonder how deep and how high up this one goes also!
Ironically this isn't available on DVD or Blu-Ray but I can buy off iTunes. LOL. I plan to download this and watch away.

I think that I will relate to Sonya Cross' situation since I have a stepson who has Asperger's syndrome. Autism being portrayed in a mainstream series will be fascinating.
Your are right. I confused this with Homeland where the lead character suffers from biploar.
Talk about another character that has driven me nuts!!! Ugh.....
