Denmark's answer to the West Wing, and then some
By PoloBeanScotland (32 reviews) , 25 Feb 2012[Highly rated reviewer]
Wonderful series, Denmark's answer to the West Wing, with slightly more realism about the compromises that even idealistic people in politics end up making once they get power. Borgen is also very good for showing the relationship between journalists and the politicians and spin-doctors. Highly entertaining, really top quality, an excellent cast, most of whom are gorgeous to look at as well as making their characters come to life. Unmissable I would say.- Was this review helpful to you?

(13)Another great Scandinavian seres
By Alleescats (2 reviews) , 28 Apr 2013Brilliant series. Gives a great insight into Danish politics. Fascinating seeing how Birgitte Nyborg's unexpected rise to power affects her family life. Can't wait to watch series 2.- Was this review helpful to you?

Roll on the next series!
By weeducks (1 review) , 18 Mar 2013Loved this series and now on the second one... enjoying it immensely too. The acting is superb from all quarters with a special mention of the young daughter. Much better than any American depiction of politics in my opinion but possibly because it is more in keeping with our own ways being a small country. Looking forward to a third series.- Was this review helpful to you?

Lived up to expectations
By a customer , 27 Jan 2013Missed it on TV and I am glad I have now caught up with it on DVD. Excellent series, stories very good and cast first-rate. The situations could apply to politics in many countries including Britain and USA. I am now catching up with the latest series on TV having recorded them this time!- Was this review helpful to you?

Another Scandinavian success
By WappingDave (26 reviews) , 17 Jan 2013Excellent drama well worth watching. My only gripe is that the subtitles are often hard to read. White words on white background. A tad frustrating at times, but worth persevering- Was this review helpful to you?
