Watched the first episode Innan frosten (Before the Frost). The stupidest plot for such a celebrated series. So full of holes that even a layman like myself spotted them from miles away! Wallander's daughter, Linda, was clearly not ready to serve on the force and sorely needed to go back to the Police Academy for more training. The last bit towards the end was the most ludicrous. When 2 police discovered a van filled with explosives would they BOTH just walked away without securing it or called in for more support? I watched some of 2nd season and I think the writing improved quite a bit. I'm just really surprised by the lack of editing on the writing level regarding the plot before the filming. Thank goodness for series like Vera!

(2005–2013)
Not a promising 1st episode---totally implausible plot!
