Season 1 Review:
The story develops in a way that creates enough suspense to keep you watching. The very enjoyable heart of the comedy is the relationship between Fälldin and the Soviet ambassador in Sweden, Aleksandra Kosygina (Elsa Saisio), with whom he shares an interest in sheep and a phlegmatic temperament; together they quietly work toward a resolution.

Season 1 Review:
Jansson-Schweizer takes what could have been a very serious Cold War tale and turns it on its ear, making the incident a product of a drunken crew and making the various world leaders involved in the negotiations into the caricatures they were portrayed as at the time. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn’t.
