Lilyhammer

bad writing, terrible comedy.

Preposterous. And not in a comedic way.

Incredibly underrated. I was expecting more of a gloomy atmosphere when I saw that it takes place in Norway but on the contrary, it was very fun. even Alan Ford was here at some point! Those British guys gave sort of a Snatch vibe to this show. There are some cliches, poor acting and quirks with the language (Frank understands literally everything in Norwegian but can't speak a word) but this is, kind of, a comedy show. So, no big deal. Take it easy!

has some charm,

Loved it, funny, bit absurdist, first season is the best.

If you can ignore the little quirks with the language, casting and timing, it's a great show. It looses steam, though. Slowly, bu surely.

The last season kind of sucked, but if you're a Sopranos megafan you should at least watch a couple of episodes. It's basically Sil's extended coma dream about growing a conscience and moving to Norway, it's hilarious.

one of the most original ideas I've ever seen. Van Zandt is always awesome and the Norwegian Graham Chapman looking motherfucker is really funny. if you're not too lazy for the double language you're gonna end up loving it

It seems to have lost its charm in later seasons, but its interesting premise and likable cast make it watchable.
