I wonder if Deon Meyer actually had anything to do with this series? He's a brilliant author and I love his work. This series does his body of work no justice whatsoever : the characters are hideously miscast,the storyline is erratic, and it's quite excruciating to watch. A waste of money to produce and a waste of time to watch.
Fake or exaggerated accents abound, the characters are overworked to the point of caricature. Whose idea was it to cast Continental actors? A South African author, South African location, a South African talent agent, filmed in South Africa....and we have a bunch of Germans trying very hard to sound like South Africans but making a total hash of it.
Very very sad, and no credit to Deon Meyer's work at all. 😣
