Grenseland

I was hooked from the start. Nordic series and movies are my favorite. Binge watched all 8 episodes and was expecting some kind of 'happy ending' or conclusion. I could stop myself from throwing the TV out of the window. I have never felt so angry because so many questions were not answered.

If they stick to that ending and not shoot a second season I will get massively angry.

Nordic crime dramas are always complex, dark, sophisticated and they drag you into their slow-pacing and excruciating world, where you think there will be no salvation (hint: normally, there's no salvation...)

BUT, Borderliner really can't end with season one. There too many questions to answer, too many characters to explore.

Overall, I was hooked by the way the plot was unfolded throughout the episodes, the impeccable acting from the entire cast and the magical norwegian scenery.

It would have been an 8 or even 9, if the ending did not leave me wondering if there was an episode 9 and netflix has missed it.

On a side note, it was the first series I've seen where a gay character is the protagonist, and is NOT defined by his sexuality. Good job!

It's like they ran out of budget, time and story. Took some nice twists and turns, went back on itself a few times but was ok for possibly 10 episodes. So the ending we got is absolutely rubbish. If you are binge watching you will be so disappointed. Here is hoping for season 2, otherwise don't waste your time.

First few episodes were great. Loved that the lead character was gay. Great actors. But half-way through, the plot-lines kept changing and moving around so much it got annoying and confusing but mostly boring and repetitive. After investing in 8 episodes, the ending of the last episode 8 just totally pissed me off. Did no-one say "we have to give the viewers some degree of resolution." No. Just a "cliff hanger" to keep us guessing and wondering - ripped off viewers big-time. You can't end an 8 part series with the last scene - as if it has a next episode, next week. There are very few endings of any tv series/movie that made me so angry as this did. Viewers invest so much time in a series - they deserve some partial resolution to a story.

I was really enjoying this series, right up until the end. And, then, it was apparent that the show runner had no idea how to end the season - and so he or she just ended it.
