I suffer from Christmas-is-over blues, so I continue to watch old Swedish Christmas programs for families! "Sunes jul" ("jul" = Christmas) is from 1991, and I find it one of the best ever. It is at times screamingly funny! It takes all those typical situations and things we do in the weeks leading up to Christmas - the Lucia procession, the making of gingerbread cookies and "knäck" (a kind of toffee with almonds), the decorating of the house, the buying and wrapping of Christmas presents etc. - and shows what often happens in reality. That is: something goes wrong...

As to the father of the family - who makes the most of the mistakes, at the same time as he can never admit that he does not know how to do a certain thing, or take somebody else's advice - I can see both my ex husband and my own father in him! :-)

The main character Sune is a charming, cute, crafty kid, and somehow I am not a bit surprised that the boy who played him grew up to become a successful lawyer! :-)

This is one of the few Christmas shows I remember, and it's one of the best ever aired in Sweden. Sunes Jul is the Christmas story of Sune, who is a normal boy with a normal family who is going to have a normal xmas. Of course he doesn't get this as his father (Peter Haber) is an idiot. Everything goes wrong in ways that will make you laugh. Now, it's been a long time since I saw this show so I can't really write about specific moments, but I loved the show, and I hope they will make xmas shows as good as this one was one day.

All hail Sune, master of Christmas, also say hello to his father who is le expert at destroying it.

9/10, you have to see it if you're Swedish.
