I'm glad I started watching this. It's one of the best shows I've come across lately, every episode bringing tears and/or laughter. Based on slow paced rural, small town people that get thrown into high fashion, industrial enterprise, all due to ideas, determination and mind sets of a few individuals. If you are interested in the ambitions behind the events that were driving some of the amazing business developments in the seventies, you're likely to enjoy every episode of this series. But hey, actually you don't need to care a bit about business, this is basically about looking after those you care for, in full action. Enjoy!

I enjoyed it very much. Through a scenario that might seem frivolous (the world of beauty, hairdressing), it shows how power relations work: between men and women... between social classes. The actors are fantastic. People who come from humble classes. The two main actors emanate honesty and kindness in the midst of the conflicts of everyday life. The script could not be better. It masterfully combines everyday situations with universal themes. The conflict between fidelity to your vocation and to the people you love. The musical scenes are just right and necessary. I recommend it to everyone who enjoyed The Wire.

It has been a long time since I've witnessed the art of acting and directional excellence. What could have been a tedious series left me wanting more. Not recognizing the actors, I believe, always helps and prevents recollections or comparative familiarities. Each episode was fresh interesting and unrushed, allowing character and plot development. The suspense both generated and maintained was real and powerful. I fell in love with every character as nuances of those characters were teased and highlighted sparingly and with great artistic taste. I am no art critic but have watched enough movies and shows in my 70years of life to recognize that this series was truly extraordinary and all involved, none more so than the casting agent, should feel very, very proud of this work and deserved of every award and accolade they receive. PS am in Australia and strangely never heard of "Axel's" move to here after the sale of his company.

The acting by all characters is wonderful. The 1960s period depictions hilarious. The styling, clothes, music are a treat. The beautiful period cars and visits to the TV/Radio shop are exquisite. The radios and TVs on display are artistic furniture pieces. For me, Maria Rossing and Nicolai Jørgensen steal the show. Maria as Birthe transcends her humble farm-grown roots and Nicolai, as Frans portrays his shyness and later his coming out in 1960s Denmark to perfection. In particular, Nicolai's performance is a career milestone. We feel his fear and pain and sadness living in a world where he is not accepted for who he is. I am not through all of Season 1, and we wait to see how Birthe's husband and family fare.

This is a strange, sometimes surreal drama.

The first three episodes followed two different storylines which eventually came together.

Episode 5 was fragmented, and boring and made me think this series was going to be too long at 8 episodes.

Episode 6 was terrible. Apart from 5 minutes of storyline which was integral, the rest was a gratuitous pander to the same sex, political correctness lobby.

It had nothing to do with the story and looked like a bolt-on episode just to satisfy diversity and inclusion.

Does every drama really have to include these storylines? It seems to have become mandatory.

Although purportedly based on real events, I can't understand how Axel could spend copious amounts of money with no income. I mean a lot of money, like buying land and building a factory, and employing loads of staff.

Series 2 7 episodes that could easily have been only 4.

Epsode 5 was another one that was a standalone and featured a supporting character and had nothing to do with the main story at all. It could be left out completely without missing anything.

The Poul storyline was superfluous and irritating as it related to nothing to do with Carmen.

The same sex relationship was gratuitous again and offered nothing but tokenism.

Another 3rd series would be unwise because they seemed to have run out of ideas for this one.

The surrealism was dropped for series 2.
