In short, for the TL;DR crowd, this is True Detective Down under.

I wanted to check this show out because of Fimmel and he again delivered with the acting. I was hoping he didn't run into snakes in this show.

It took me 4 days to watch 6 episodes and that is a sign. Not that it's bad, but it's more like a wedding cake; Delicious but after 1, max 2 pieces your body needs time to digest.

It is slow with a mediocre start and great middle part, but a rather disappointing ending. They set up a long story along the way, so I'll check out the next season, but the payoff was a little meh. I don't mind it being a slow burner but when you introduce new facts in the 5th episode, have story lines end up in complete duds and have to rely on a few coincidences you lose marks in my book.

if 0 is a stupid American cop show, where you can guess who did it by betting on the 1 guest actor who can actually act
and
10 is a British mini series where you have to go read 2 Wikipedia entries and watch a 20 min YouTube video to figure out who did it, AFTER the actor explained it on the show.
Then this is a 6.

This is more for people who like Drama about sensitive subjects than for amateur sleuths. I gave it a 6 BUT with potential.
