Michael W @Wuffie Aug 29 This was an interesting approach to illuminating how we dehumanize immigrants. I thought it was well acted and, while the premise was somewhat flimsy, the depiction of life as immigrants seemed very real (albeit for generally rich, white northern Europeans, which was no doubt designed to make it more relatable to the average Netflix audience). This is a drama. There is very little action. Though, the story line and characters are interesting enough to compel you to follow the story. Much better than the typical slop Netflix usually serves up. See more Michael B Jul 27 Not sure if William J has ever been to Denmark. No mountains. I think the highest point in 560 feet.

See more William J 12/09/2024 The whole premise of the mini series is a bit outlandish, given the topographical variance in Denmark's geographical elevation. While the urban business and financial center of Copenhagen might be swallowed up by a rising Baltic why doesn't the affected parts of the nation relocate to the higher elevations and lower population densities of Fyn and especially Jylland? Because the urbane upper class and privileged who have millions invested in historic manor houses and suburban real estate don't want to live amongst common rural farmers? You get the impression this is April 1940 all over again -- a quick surrender after a mere hour facing the enemy. Otherwise a bit soppy in tone, Danes simply aren't given to such romantic melodrama.
