Excellent British detective series. Main character Jimmy Perez is thoughtful, controlled, highly honourable, occasionally intense, and always kind. Beautiful landscapes, lovely accents, likeable characters. The show is very atmospheric, and crimes are solved by talking, reasoning, and building rapport with the people surrounding the crime.

Up until season 3 shetland was good. After that this show thrived on abuse, trauma and all sorts of depressing concepts and tendencies. I wouldn't recommend it to anyone seeking decent entertainment.

I rarely rewatch crime shows - but Shetland is absolutely excellent. I don't mind that I already know at this point 'who did it' but just love the mood the show portrays and the great & relatable acting. Can't wait for Season 4!
