    • Trivia
      The actors spent time at Denmark's police academy before filming began, learning about investigation techniques as well as training abilities to act like real police officers in action scenes.
    • Goofs
      In the first episode, the crime scheme is compromised by plot holes. The plan seems to depend on a risky diversion which in fact attracts the attention of the police to the crime scene rather than the opposite. It is also not explained why Sandberg, who is wanted by the police, would choose to land his plane in a place where he is sure to be arrested, and the whole criminal plan comes to depend on how he fares in court.
    • Alternate versions
      German television airs two of the original one-hour episodes in a row, cut to 100 minutes in total.

    8/10
    Superlative Danish detective drama...
    Scandinavia produces a lot of good quality crime drama and The Eagle is a an excellent example.

    This detective drama shares a lot in common with US series like Crossing Lines. Its a mix of cross border policing, of mostly high profile cases, combined with a dash of intelligence work.

    This police unit frequently work with Danish and other intelligence agencies and other police forces from neighbouring countries like Sweden and Norway.

    The style of this drama is down to earth and very matter of fact. Its refreshingly unpretentious and well acted. Each season has an overriding story that's built upon with side stories to keep things interesting.

    All in all a recommended watch for crime drama enthusiasts tired of the run of the mill US/UK fare. Eight out of ten from me.
