To Cook a Bear review – this daft historical crime drama is like Law & Order: Special Ursine Unit
NegativeWorld Affairs

The new six-part adaptation of Mikael Niemi's novel, 'To Cook a Bear,' has sparked mixed reactions, particularly due to its peculiar blend of historical crime drama and humor. Set in a remote 19th-century village, the series attempts to tackle a murder investigation that many critics find laughable rather than gripping. This odd juxtaposition has led to discussions on social media, especially around a viral debate about survival in the wilderness. While the show aims to explore gender dynamics through its narrative, its execution has left viewers questioning its overall effectiveness.
