Review of The Legacy

The Legacy (2014–2017)
10/10
Complex intriguing kaleidoscopic family drama
14 August 2016
Warning: Spoilers
I read the reviews on this site and was intrigued. It does not disappoint. The characters are complex and flawed and one's view of them changes constantly as does the relationship between almost all of the pairs of the characters changes....... as a result of the original action taken by Veronika weaves its way into the fabric of this family, creating and unraveling (and churning up secrets and choices). The twists so far (I'm at the end of series one) do not feel contrived but they do feel plausible in a family where so much is below the surface. I enjoy the Danish cadences and the rhythms of the language as well. The opening credits are wonderful. The actor who plays Robert is devastatingly handsome. All the characters seem developed, complex, and human. I read somewhere that the series creator wanted to stop the series before it started to get stale. Great plan! But- that has not happened- please give us the next season!
