I didn't find any mention here...
Binged on HULU and liked it.
2 seasons, 13 episodes each, ~20 hours worth.

Serial killer vs good cops vs bad cops vs drug cartel vs FBI vs CIA etc.....

"The Bridge" follows detective Marco Ruiz (Demián Bichir) and detective Sonya North (Diane Kruger) as they hunt down a serial killer after a body is found on the bridge connecting El Paso and Juarez. Marco and Sonya must work together to take down the killer operating on both sides of the Texas-Chihuahua border, however, their investigation is complicated both by internal corruption and violence stemming from the drug cartels functioning among the borderlands.

The first season I really enjoyed, but the second season just kinda fell flat for me, and I think I gave it up after 2 or 3 episodes.

Matthew Lillard plays a great drunk asshole though.

You really should watch them all.

I suggest this order.

The Swedish one
The English one
The US one.

And yes, they are all three worth watching.

It was great. Fausto is one of my favorite characters.

The moved away from her autism in the second season, and while I liked the whole thing, the second season was a mess.

Agree, have watched all three. My favorite was the British one "The Tunnel", staring Stephen Dillane and Clemence Poesy.

I saw the US one first and thought it was great. Then I saw the Danish version and thought it was way better. Haven't seen the British version yet.

I think I liked the acting and story of the Danish one best, but Diane Kruger in Season 1 of the US version is very good.

I should just rewatch the Euro series

Are the titles all the same? Looking for the Swedish one now.

Are these all the same story but different locations or countries?
