Really well put together series with a captivating and unique, no holds barred story telling style. A bit heavy on the teal colour grade and music with clear influences showing, but still great visuals and good sound design that's overall very well produced. Highly binge watchable with a satisfying number of episodes (16) that I managed to spread out over several days. I also thought the subtitles were well done with subtle nuances and humorous dialog moments that could easily have been lost at the hands of a less adept translator.
The series develops over time, and while the theme of most episodes is broadly the same, unlike products such as the Blacklist that degenerate into interminable sameness with only a vague arc running through them that, along with the characters themselves, one easily ceases to care about over time, "The Method" sustains itself and builds up to a powerful and terrific final episode. Some 5 years later. a series 2 appears to be in development, though perhaps put on hold at the moment. The bar is set high, but I've high hopes.
With a fair bit of gore and tough story lines, this isn't one for the faint of heart, but it's a satisfying antidote to the usual style of investigative series. Stick through the first episode, which by the end gives a clue to the fact that it's going to be an exciting and somewhat quirky ride but isn't really representative of the series as a whole, and enjoy a great story.
