Disappointing until the last breath The plot is completely ridiculous to say the least... Everything is predictable, the characters are deep as a piece of paper and Gerardi, the inspector and main character is possibly the stupidest detective ever created in the history of television. From a weak casting (the acting is really low-level, don't expect a Oscar-winning role from these guys) to bad editing and directing skills, the series is a complete disappointment and I can't really recommend it. If you want some good thriller or investigating European series, try to watch The Bridge (Bron - Broen). Salamander is not even a thriller, since you know everything before it happens, including the pathetic explosions and creepy cheesy sentimental crappy scenes.
