This is a great show. Well acted and gritty, I loved how well a person with Aspergers was portrayed. If you're bilingual you'll enjoy the Spanish when it's spoken. There are subtitles for those moments so you won't miss anything if you don't speak Spanish. It just lends authenticity to the story.

The Bridge series. A series my grandaughter and I watch regularly. A way for me to tell her about the sociocultural environment I grew up in, as I am a native of El Paso. Excellent depiction of social concerns in large border city. I only wish that the degree of cooperation across the border was really this good. With better cooperation more international problems could be solved and El Paso could serve as a model for successful cross-border cities to teach US government how interdependent we really are. We need better immigration programs that take these factors into account. I fully recommend this series and wish it would continue after the current season.

Sometimes slow and easy, other times fast and furious. Let this be one series where you don't try and outguess the writers. Just sit back, have a beverage and let the story in. This is NOT family drama; it's adult entertainment. I said adult, not lewd. It's rated TV-MA accordingly.
