The second from the left was used in Season 1. I believe Season 2 used the one on the right. I could help them with props for some reasonable compensation.

Frankly... I would not miss the show all that much. It was just OK, I think, by the modern US TV standards. Not even close to the better examples like The Killing.

I truly wish they also brought in more European crime shows, stuff from France and Belgium tends to be more fun to watch. German... not so much.

There were some real gems. Thanks for the tip on The Killing, Vic. It's on my watch list.

I found the "old-timer" revolting by the fact that he was smoking in every scene! Every scene! The murderers were quite good, though, but not enough to offset the two main characters for me.

Agreed about the lead character, esp. in Season 1. nt, posted on January 18, 2020 at 13:25:14

Not bad, but too sadistic, be forewarned. nt, posted on January 20, 2020 at 08:12:45
