FX’s new serial-killer drama The Bridge is an adaptation of the Danish and Swedish series Bron/Broen — and that show is goddamn fantastic. In the original, a body is found right in the center of a bridge that connects Sweden and Denmark; in the American version, the body is found on the Texas border between the U.S. and Mexico. Thus law-enforcement from both countries gets involved! Diane Kruger plays the American detective (detached, unemotional), Demián Bichir plays her Mexican co-worker (married, kids, warm), and we all play people who have room in our lives for one more serial-killer show.
