Watching the Branagh versión (not the real one).
They work hard to give a Scandinavian ambience, but it´s got that ´Merrican thang going on (I´d say English, but really, it´s akin to an American trying to be international).
What do yáll think (as in quality level)?

Beautifully shot and very, very well done, I think. It's definitely more British as Brit TV has grown up a lot. I prefer this to to the actual Swedish version; Kenneth Branagh is superb.

Huh?
George Gently is pretty good, too, as well as Inspector Lewis.

yep. Guv.
The one set in Oxford, where the inspector is named Hathaway, and I can´t recall for the life of me his boss´s name (the forensic pathologist calls him Robbie) is just as good.
ETA Inspector Lewis
brilliant.

Inspector Lewis, Inspector Morse, Foyle's War....
All good.

Hathaway's deadpan delivery is great. One bit I remember the most is when their chief is chewing them out for something:
"Stop looking so smug."
Hathaway: "I'm not smug. It's the natural look of my unfortunate face."
I've been nothing but impressed with Masterpiece Mystery shows.

The UK Wallander just didn't capture my attention.
