Lust

Being a US-born non-Swedish middle-aged man, this show was a total gamble for me... but it worked out and I really liked it. I haven't seen the theme of middle-aged women struggling to come to terms with their sexuality addressed in quite this style. The show reminds me a bit of Netflix's Working Moms but with a Scandinavian flavor, more warmth, and less ridiculousness.

It was great to get to see the Sweden-based settings and exposure to Svensk (with English subs -- you just need to turn them on).

I thought the acting was quite good and the characters and plot were interesting... if not totally believable. Still... it all works to bring an interesting story together. If the show is renewed for another season, I will watch it.

A nice attempt by HBO Max to make a traditional swedish comedy show based on awkward situations, social inabilities and typical Swedish reluctance of conflicts. It balances between funny and embarassing in a deliberately provocative Way. To a swedish viewer this is nothing new but I can understand that it's a very different experience for an american viewer. The actresses are some of the most acclaimed and experienced ones in Sweden and I think their performances are mostly solid. Overall I had a good time watching it.

In each episode there is at least one scene which is outrageous but so believable. Don't be frightened by having to read the subtitles for those non-Swedes amongst us, this is a great show.

I was avoiding watching this I thought it was geared towards women, which I'm not. Well it was geared towards women but I actually liked it. If I had to describe it, I would say it's sort of a Swedish Sex and the City.

So ridiculous how people rate 1/10 because HBO does not provide subtitles in English (which are there btw). Instead of rating the series and making it look bad, complain with HBO support!

The series is pretty fun, acting is not bad, and I would love to see more Nordic series on HBO max!
