The good parts are the very credible relationship that Birgitte has with her family and her evolution as a more sophisticated politician once she has to do battle with the other parties to form a new government.

The show is beautifully plotted. The many intrigues in the worlds of politics, journalism, business, and PR are given just enough twists and turns to be surprising, but never so many that they become tiresome.

This is a lot of narrative to tackle in one hour, but the writing and performances on "Borgen" are so finely honed that it all snaps together effortlessly, and crackles as the story races along.
