Roba is what might be described as a warts and all, cop show from Finland. The lines between the Finnish police officers being morally or legally correct in their actions, is at times ambiguous and on occasion, they are clearly in the wrong. This tends to lend a human depth to this show, that's absent from a lot of mainstream cop series. Characters are relatable because of their contradictions, their flaws and their qualities. Indeed, this show is as much about the police service, as ordinary people, as it is about policing. Acting, like the writing is, generally, of a very high standard. Investing characters with this kind of simple human depth, takes real talent. I have watched three seasons of Roba and I hope the next two come out with English subs, at some point in the not too distant future. In short, a worthwhile watch for those who like a little more depth to their crime drama's.
