We're on board for the Norwegian scenery and Haga's performance as Maja, but Outlier needs to pick up the pace a little bit to hold our interest. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

herbert b 01/31/2025 Excellent acting from the lead but a very very slow pace and a thin script. Eery background music is very much overdone and is an irritant that appears to be an attempt to disguise the vacuity of the script and lack of real dramatic tension Intelligently if rather ponderously deals with some important issues.

This is one of the rare series that is not only dramatically engaging, but deals with an important social issue - how women are treated by men who are in positions of authority. This is an amazingly good program, strong acting, good scripting and amazing scenery in northern Norway. Put this high on your watch list, it is definitely worth your time! See more Read all reviews
