Jesus, did the production team for Detective Hole live in my walls for the last ten years? Is someone watching me now? Tobias Santelmann (+ the rest of the cast) scored by Nick Cave/Warren Ellis???? I am once again blessed by the Norwegian Television Gods 🙏🏻

Oh WILD, they cast Ellen Helinder in the first episode. After what happened to her character in Exit, I need a second to process that.

I think the best part of this show is that there is a small portion of people that will watch it because they think Joel Kinnaman is hot, only to find his character is a PPE wrapped *freak*

- Fever Ray to a Santelmann character having a crisis will always be a 10 out of 10, every time

- I wish TV shows would stop trying to make corpses look pretty. Where is the waxy yellow skin! The lividity!

- Anders Danielsen Lie playing an abusive, religious, pseudo-intellectual is INSANE when he usually plays much softer characters, this really is a peak "cast actors against type" show.

If I have one critique of this show it's that Norway does *not* know how to do urban decay - their attempt at trash on the street/graffiti/homeless people is like looking at a rich kid in torn jeans and a dirty t-shirt. The perils of being a functional, stable country!

@paparatti I am looking forward to what looks like another great Nordic Murder Show™ but boy are those novels DARK
@bucknam yeah, that is what I've heard from other sources. I thought about reading this story ahead of time but decided that I definitely prefer watching the shows to reading the books. I don't want these stories right inside my head! Feels dangerous!
