Nice little show, good actors I was unaware of like Katharine O'Donnelly I don't think you'll regret watching it.

A tv show that is inspired or directly copies other titles from "The thing" (1982) to "Fortitude" (2015-2018), but with less provocative intention. Although the instruments certainly fit to create a correct thriller, it is a conservative proposal, which only seems to seek a development as trivial as it is effective. Nothing new, no risk, no visual punch, and yet it works within its limitations.

Loved series 1, series 2 - ominous music building up to a climax that never happens for 40 minutes every episode isn't entertainment, it's an advanced torture technique

The first season had been very good, the second one... not so much. It's not a bad watch at all, but it's a confirmation of the old adage that sequels almost always fail in trying to recapture whatever it was that worked the first time around. It was a valiant effort nonetheless, some stuff even works well enough but it's just not as shocking as it tries to be.
