Watched the pilot show. I'm all in.

It's based on a Danish/Swedish show called Broen.

I intended to watch it, but I was reluctant to pick up yet another show to follow

It was that good?

I live in California. Last thing I need is another reality show

So far so good....the pilot was interesting enough to make me want to watch next week.

I was intrigued after reading this write-up on Grantland:

Now, Kopfjager you count as a 'second', so I'm in. Will start watching.

I liked it.

Lets see if they keep up the quality.

kopfjÃ¤ger · July 11, 2013, 03:44:10 PM

AFAIK they filmed 13 episodes.

I liked the premise and enjoyed the Mexican cop. I couldn't stand Diana Kruger (the American cop).

Will give it a few more episodes before deciding. I really want it to be good because I've got nothing until Breaking Bad starts in August.

I think they don't want us to like her. She has some issues with her sisters death etc.. I think the Cop from Juarez will bring her around.

Yeah, I get that we aren't supposed to like her so much, but I think it's a little over the top. But, as I say, I like the rest and will give it a few episodes before deciding if I'm all in.

The Mexico/US bordertown crime theme is a good setting.

It's early on, she's a pain in the ass, but I think she'll come around.
