Amor y anarquía

Acting quality you don't see in American shows. Beautifully written and because of the acting you are carried away with the story. I binged the 2 seasons in two days and loved every minute of it.

Being Scandinavian everything and everyone has style. Outfits that are supposedly thrown on are meticulous in their colour coordination. The furniture and décor is always tasteful, and everyone has money, even the IT guy sharing a Hispster influenced 'hovel', (yup, lots of bare chip board, just like a trendy Shoreditch café). The sound track is 'cheesy Indie pop' that 15 year olds will love, yet is still a step above the better Eurovision entries.

But once you get past the clichés and the 'Visit Sweden Because We're Cool' tourist ad' this is a smart and witty tragi comedy. There's a sense of self discovery that begins with a dare and snowballs. The characters get fleshed out, even bit players, so that we get to know that everyone deep down is not as happy as they could be.

We're shown that women can like porn too, that the famous Swedish egalitarian attitude to parenting and society isn't all it's made out to be, that some of the men and women can be real selfish a-holes and a barrier to happiness.

I haven't finished, I'm halfway through ep' 7. I'm desperate for the main characters to work it out and find happiness, but it will be messy, people will get hurt.

I am a middle aged man that used to scorn this kind of thing as being too 'fluffy' and for sad, divorced women with a taste for mid day cocktails. I'm glad I'm all grown up now otherwise I would have missed this. I think ep 8 is going to make me cry, just a little, but I hope so.

I loved it! Love & anarchy is like nothing else... The chatacters are unique and the actors brillant. I simply fell in love with them all. The Story is heartwarming and funny. It makes you want to stand on the barricades and free yourself from unwritten rules. Tomorrow I will go backwards to work......

I really liked this show. It was super entertaining and just overall very charming and likeable. Very binge worthy and like a breath of fresh air. The second season was obviously not as good as the first season, but it was better than expected. I feel like the ending of season one didn't leave much room for continuation, but somehow season two kind of managed to still keep the quality. I will say that I would have wanted to see more of the main character's relationship more in season two. All in all, it wasn't anything super special, but I liked it nonetheless.

I love this and pretty much everything about it. Watch it! It's smart, and sexy, and playful, and wicked, and full of heart. Consider me a fan.
