A Nearly Normal Family


A Nearly Normal Family | Official Trailer | Netflix
Netflix

Swedish murder mystery but it's more of a family drama. Daughter Stella gets arrested for killing her boyfriend, a rich guy ten years older than her. No gun play, no car chases, at least not yet, but for some reason it completely sucked us in.

Part of it, I think, is that we like puzzles, and this show is very puzzling. There are little clues all over the place, but you never know if they are real clues or just red herrings designed to lead us down the garden path.

Now it could be that we just have a couple of teenagers being stupid, but there is an undercurrent of something not-quite-right with some of the players. We're halfway through the six episodes so we should have our answers shortly.
