vicki-hi67 Loved it it was entertaining and very realistic would definitely recommend it
vickerthelegend I'm a big fan of anything scandanavian . Great show top notch acting . Really captures modern European family life.
qui_j This is a well written, funny version of "Modern Family". Because it is set in a different culture, it has its own originality. If you are not familiar with Scandinavian culture and their way of thinking, you probably may not relate well to the plot. The story revolves around a family of "exes", who have changed partners and are trying to make the change in family life and dynamics a workable one. There is the attempt to maintain old relationships so as not to radically change the family dynamics, all this while trying to make new relationships work. The acting is very good, and the issues associated with each character really comes through....no holds barred! The sexually liberated themes may not sit well with more prudish audiences but it is a reality in that culture where sexual activity and education starts early, and is regarded as a natural bodily function that is openly discussed. The subtitle translation is well done in "modern" English, and this fits well with the current way of conversing in today's world. Overall, it's a great series and I hope there will be a second season shown here in the US.
veo First of all, do not get deterred by the fact that it is Swedish: it has nothing of the dry, coward European cinema. The subject itself is nothing new: the problems of a recent couple along with problems of their children, ex-partners, new partners of their ex-partners. But it is so brilliantly written and perfectly played, it doesn't let you down for a single episode. It a shows about serious matters (family, commitment, divorce, kids...) but approached with a great sense of humor and (rare thing) really funny jokes. It also has great characters and witty comebacks that make it a hidden gem that I hope Hollywood will never remake.
