In Solsidan we follow the lives of various characters living in the posh neighbourhood with the same name. We have the stereotypical rich people, Mickan and Fredde, the kooky weirdos Ove and Annette and the "hippies" Anna and Alex. Throughout the show we get to see the hilarious interactions the characters have with each other and other people. Alex is hilariously awkward and anxious, which constantly gets him into trouble. Together with his slightly hippie wife Anna they are the misfits in the fancy neighbourhood. Mickan, however, fits right in. She doesn't work, wears designer clothes and is obsessed with seeming perfect, especially in front of her "friends" who are constantly competing about who seems to have the most perfect life. Fredde is impulsive and obsessed with having all the newest gadgets. Ove is the annoying neighbour that you always try to avoid, but somehow always run into at the worst times. This mix of people, combined with the setting and the social commentary results in a great comedy series, appreciated all over Sweden. You don't have to be Swedish to get into it though, because it brings up topics and jokes that can be appreciated universally. A guaranteed laugh!

A series that follows the lives of two different families in an upper middle class area near Stockholm. The humour often comes from classic awkward situations that escalate over the course of an episode, but with the added bonus of making fun of the hypocrisy and ridiculousness of the well-to-do.

While every character is an exaggeration of some sort, the emotional drama in the middle of the comedy feels real and ties the show together. Despite the hateful qualities of each character the writers manage to squeeze some genuine empathy out of the viewers.

Having been on for over ten years now, the latest series feel like a decline from the earlier form. The end may be nigh, and that's a good thing. I hope they won't ruin this by trying to force it go on forever.

First seasons are obviously the best, but the sixth season is just rubbish in my humble opinion. Something about it is just awfully off. Actors are the same and everything but the magic's gone. I don't think I smiled even once during the last season.

I have always loved this show and the jokes are always there to make you laugh. The characters all work together and it is simply one of the best comedy-series made in Sweden.

The most clever humor show ever! This is soo good and very funny!

One of the best Swedish series out there!

Solsidan knows how to make people laugh. They are really good and can joke in the best of circumstances! They joke a lot about Swedish life and all Swedes can draw parallels, in one way or another. Wonderful satire!

The acting is excellent and the characters are well written and great performances by the actors.

The storyline is very good the characters in it is classic for ever typical Swede. Filming is aswell great and the dialogue and manuscript is very well written and performed.

I really recommend this fantastic show!! You need to watch it!
