Johan Falk Series

[idlebrain]

Hi Friends,
Recently I came across the Johan Falk series. Is there an english friendly(sub) box set/Individual releases available anywhere?

Thanks.

I am not aware of this either on DVD or BD in an English friendly format. The Swedish BDs only have Scandinavian country subtitles.

You would only expect to see an English language friendly release if it got a TV release in any of UK, Australia or US. This has not yet appeared on UK TV. One of the reasons is that Swedish TV companies tend to want more money for TV than their Danish colleagues. This is why much more Danish TV has appeared in the UK in recent years. In fact the UK only bought Beck for broadcast last month and even then it's only the 5 latest episodes and that is another long running Swedish show which has been going for years.

Thanks for the info. English subtitled DVDs available in Amz US & UK for almost all the movies in series. I guess that's only option for now.

It's really good stuff, though. I enjoyed every one of the 17 new movies, as well as the three old ones. They're only out on DVD, of course.
