They have a two hour block of foreign crime and mystery shows, subtitled, during the week.
I came across Maigret one night and sample the other offerings as they come and go.
Some keep my interest. Crimes of Passion is another Swedish period (~1950s) mystery that I like. The Italian Montalbano is a favorite, and the French Spiral is finishing up a season this week.
There are Norwegian and German shows running just didn't appeal to me at the moment.
Anno 1790 is about a Swedish doctor, back from the unpopular war with Russia, that takes a position as the district LEO/CSI. He deals with the monarchy, friends of the monarch, coveting of the boss's wife, people that want his job, the French Revolution, Swedish revolutionaries, drugs, abortions, hangings, adolescent death-in-custody, state church problems, and a vixen revolutionary that wrongly blames him for the death of her brother, all while solving civil crimes as well.
Very interesting, I’ll have to check that out, thanks!
