The Killing (2011)
I would never have believed that I would like an American remake of a Scandinavian series more, but in this case, I did. The original Nordic crime drama The Killing is clearly better than the American The Killing in the first season, but the Americans take the reins in the later seasons. The psychology of the characters, especially the detective duo Linden & Holder, is brilliantly portrayed, with a chemistry between them that is hard to describe in words. There is no shortage of gloomy and chilling atmosphere, escalating tension, and unexpected twists. That's how I imagine a detective series whose every episode I will hungrily devour.
