Carine Strand/Crossing Lines #1: A world without borders needs justice without borders. [Spoilers inside]
Carrie Strand / Crossing Lines #1 Crossing Lines returns for an explosive season three, beginning six months after the heart-stopping conclusion of Season Two, in which the cross-border unit’s leader, Louis Daniel, was killed. After one of his top prosecutors vanishes, Dorn must reactivate the ICC team. Marco Corazza, Carine Strand, Luke Wilkinson and Ellie Delfont-Bogard are new ICC team members joining Sebastian Berger and Arabela Seeger. The third season of the series promises to be its most ambitious, with a new emphasis on relevant and contemporary cross-border crime, gut-wrenching character drama, and a reunited team of underdogs struggling to re-establish their battered identity. Crossing Lines taps into the charter of the International Criminal Court (ICC), to mandate a special crime unit, creating an organization functioning as a European FBI, to investigate serialized crimes that cross over European borders and to hunt down criminals to bring them to justice. The series was originally created by Edward Allen Bernero. Cast: Donald Sutherland as Michel Dorn Goran Visnjic as Marco Corazza Elizabeth Mitchell as Carrie Strand Stuart Martin as Luke Wilkinson Naomi Battrick as Ellie Delfont-Bogard Tom Wlaschiha as Sebastian Berger Lara Rossi as Arabela Seeger Supporters: Last edited by Hamburgo1001; 04-21-2015 at 02:45 PM |

As you can see, I haven't come up with an OP yet, but I figured it's about time to open a thread for this show.
Unfortunately, we still don't have any pictures from the set, but we do have a general outline for the season and a couple of episode titles courtesy of IMDB: Quote:

Thanks for putting up the thread!
I wanted to check out a couple of episodes of the show to have some idea of what to expect, but I haven't got around to do it yet. Were you surprised that she signed up for a procedural, after saying that it's not that genre? I'm not sure whether to take it as a sign that the script/pitch for S3 was really strong and convinced her, or it's simply a case of wanting to book the gig, regardless of the genre/themes. __________________

In all seriousness though, do we know for sure that Crossing Lines is a procedural? Couldn't it be more like Homeland with seasonal arcs that gradually build towards a conclusion? |

The promo looked quite good, IMO. Even if there end up being some procedural elements to this show, I would expect them to tie into the overarching storyarc of the season (the mystery of the kidnapping). And on a shallow note, Liz looks lovely and Goran is still a mighty fine specimen. |

It reminded me a bit of Spooks - I caught two later seasons of that British series out of curiosity over Richard Armitage joining the series, and while it wasn't as character-centric as I had been hoping, it did have several great moments that made it worth watching. I have to agree with you about how good Elizabeth and Goran looked in the clip. I got some Erica Evans vibe from Liz - I think it's the hair. __________________

Elizabeth, Goran and some of the Crossing Lines' producers were in attendance for the MIPTV (Marché International des Programmes de Télévision) in Cannes. Here's a brief article:

I guess I just... wanted something that made truly excited again. But perhaps going into a series without expectations will prove to be the best path and I'll find myself pleasantly surprised. An update on the episode titles: Quote:
