"Dough" is a Swedish crime drama that blends elements of a thriller, black comedy, and social drama. The story follows Malou, a woman from an upper-class background living in an affluent Stockholm suburb. When her life begins to crumble due to financial struggles and business failures, she accidentally stumbles upon a bag containing 47 million Swedish kronor—money that disappeared during a bank robbery. Instead of reporting it to the police, Malou decides to keep the money and use it to start her own business—opening a bakery. However, the criminals behind the bank robbery want their money back, including Liana, a single mother whose partner ended up in prison because of the heist. Desperate to secure a better future for herself and her son, Liana discovers that Malou has the money, intertwining their fates in a tense game of lies and survival. The lead roles are played by Helena af Sandeberg as Malou and Bianca Kronlöf as Liana.

As he delves into the world of military contracts, geopolitical intrigue, and moral dilemmas, he soon realizes that behind the profits lie dark secrets and ethical compromises. With artificial intelligence increasingly integrated into modern weaponry, Bjørn grapples with questions about human responsibility and the potential consequences of machine-driven warfare. Torn between his beliefs, family ties, and pressure from powerful interests, he must decide whether to remain part of the system or attempt to dismantle it from within. The series tackles themes such as weapons technology, the potential of "killer robots," and Norway's role as an arms exporter, offering viewers a thought-provoking take on contemporary moral dilemmas. Created by Ole Marius Araldsen and Nicolai Cleve Broch, who also stars as Bjørn Urdal.
"White Sands" is a Danish crime series that combines thriller, drama, and mystery elements, set in the idyllic yet enigmatic coastal town of Hvide Sande. After the unsolved murder of a young German surfer in this small tourist community, local police struggle to gather evidence or leads to crack the case. To uncover information, Danish authorities send two experienced detectives—Helene Falck, an undercover operations expert, and Thomas Beckmann, a seasoned homicide investigator. They must infiltrate the local community under the guise of a happily married couple who have left city life in search of tranquility by the sea. However, what initially appears to be a straightforward assignment quickly turns into a complex investigation, as the residents of Hvide Sande are wary of outsiders, and the crime holds more secrets than it first seemed.
