If you don't know how to make a solid, exciting crime series, you can always go for the weird humor side, with a lot of quasi unexpected twists and dirt / gore. For once, in between, it's okay with me. Still waiting for the last two episodes, but it won't be more than a 5.

Catch me if you can.

The 8-part Norwegian Hodejegerne/Headhunters is set in 2002 and is the prequel to the 2011 film of the same name. Headhunters is based on the bestseller by Jo Nesbø. We see the story of the ambitious Roger Brown who wants to escape his humble environment and go in search of wealth and success. In his web of lies and deceit, this master thief and swindler is about to go down. Roger Browne is well played by Axel Bøyum (Heimebane, Heksejagt).

Headhunters can best be described as a dark and absurd comedy, in a way comparable to Lillyhammer, Fargo or even Lupine. But Headhunters lacks the finesse and flair to really convince. According to the Van Dale, humor is that which is funny or sense of what is funny. I always had the feeling of watching Bassie and Adriaan looking for the treasure.
