    I've been watching Lilyhammer on Netflix, highly recommend it! I was expecting something akin to a Soprano's knock off, but nope. It's a Norwegian show. Literally the only American actor in it is the guy from the Soprano's, the rest of the cast is Norwegian, and the people who write it are all from Norway. Very clever and funny, if you're looking for a new TV show would recommend checking it out.

      If you enjoy "Lilyhammer," I think you might also enjoy the Danish-Swedish series "The Bridge." Sophia Helin's performance as a Swedish high-Aspberger detective is, imho, magnificent, and Kim Bodnia's performance as her Danish detective partner just a perfect counter-balance. I'm delighted there's going to be a third-season of this (airing late in 2015). I haven't seen an episode of the American spin-off of this. cheers, Bill

        That sounds very watchable, and watchable TV is scarce at the moment! Will check it out, cheers

          This is really one of the best series i've seen for a long time. Two seasons are done so far.

              It's from how Anglophones pronounce it.

                Or at least how Stevie's character pronounces it. Ahem.
