Stranger is one of the best action / crime / legal dramas I have ever watched, including those from western companies. It weaves an intelligent, gripping and memorable story-line that unfolds at a perfect pace throughout the entire 16 episodes. Nothing is rushed and there is no scene that does not advance either the plot or deepens the character development. If you wish to fully invest in the story it demands your attention 100% of the time because every detail is crucial, every character line is essential, every frame or pane of the camera reveals something.

This is a series that speaks volumes on what quality action drama should be, at least according to my taste. The stakes are high and the tension escalates from the story itself, which although fictitious it can easily be a portrayal of real life cases...which is what makes it both terrifying and satisfying to watch it unfold.

This is not a show for those that need action packed, explosions, car chases or overly dramatic sequences to be entertained. This show is for those that want to be challenged, that want to solve a mystery together with the protagonists, someone that values intelligent writing over dramatic writing. I loved every second of it and you can be sure that I will watch it again soon. Looking forward to Season 2 soon!

Give it a chance and you'll be surprised!
