Beck
TV Show · Crime · Drama

He’s got no style, no flash and he’s middle-aged. But Swedish detective Martin Beck is good at one thing: catching criminals. His tightly-wound partner is his opposite: an impulsive man who crosses boundaries. It’s good cop/bad cop, and together they bring down the criminals of the seedy Stockholm underworld.
