I think people having been used to all the Hollywood drama styles will find this a bit difficult, plus the language used. It feels like it's also better to express feelings and emotions in English too, being so used to the americanized film industry.
What I liked a lot about this show is that it relates to many people and communities we got used to. It's about how people react, it's about past unhealed dramas and how children are affected by it. See Peter family and Erdahl's family, families omnipresent everywhere we go. How little things in the family shapes characters.
The expression of emotion from Peter at the end, brings the family together while Erdahl's are leaving, not wanting to face the suffering. Even if leaving town, their problems are not over until confronted. Miles away better than "the Undoing" recently released by HBO
