It might run on Hulu which Fox also has an interest in but possibly
after the US version runs. The first season of original "Bridge" has
run on Hulu but only after the US made season.
Have you seen the "Fargo" TV series pilot with Billy Bob Thorton and
Martin Freeman. I haven't bought the first episode yet. Finished off
"Deadbeat" last night with friends. It's a Hulu original comedy with
Tyler Labine and co-stars Lucy DeVito (Danny's daughter).

For fans of Nordic Noir, there is another offering currently playing
in the UK, and getting both good reviews and high audience ratings.
Called "Mammon," this one is from Norway for a change, and it's pretty
good. Rather than the standard cop/politician/journalist fare, this
one leaves out the cops and sticks with a journalist who uncovers (and
prints) a story about corporate corruption that leads to the suicide
of his own brother. Fast-forward five years, and another eerily
similar scandal/suicide happens, and he realizes that he's embroiled
in a first-class conspiracy.
Good plotting, good acting, and (of course) good Scandinavian
cinematography. But you shouldn't hold your breath about seeing it in
the US anytime soon (unless you're a pirate), because it's already
been optioned by Fox for an American remake. There is no trailer from
More4 TV in the UK yet that can be seen outside the UK, and the
following teaser clips are Norwegian, but since I don't think there is
any dialog, it doesn't really matter.
