P.I.S. - Politiets indsatsstyrke (2000)
Brilliant danish satire
23 July 2005 - 10 out of 12 users found this review helpful.
This is one of the best danish TV-shows ever made! It's a brilliant satire of the do cu-soap genre. When I saw the trailers, I thought it was for a real documentary, and didn't't watch it at first. But luckily, they kept repeating the series. Since the letters P.I.S means urine in danish, I guess I should have been aware it was a satire. What makes it especially brilliant, is that the guy who in a normal TV-show would be the hero, i.e. the handsome, clever and smart guy (think Tom Cruise), in this he is simply to self absorbed for us to really like him. In this series it is the "anti-hero" we follow and care for instead, even though he is kind of a jerk. The acting is superb (I believe a lot was improvised). 10 out of 10!
