Rita

I truly enjoyed this show on Netflix and I didn't get enough. It is very different television than we have here in the U.S. They are more open and accepting of different lifestyles. Rita's character is very complex and I love her. She does so many things wrong and breaks rules in an effort to do the right thing for the school children. She is a teacher that truly cares for the kids she teaches but she isn't the best mother. This show reminds me of Nurse Jackie which is an excellent show on Showtime (Cable here in the US). I learned a little about their school system and their culture and it made me want to visit Denmark. After watching all 3 season I want to know if there will be more to come.

Excelente show! I have just binged the first 3 seasons and can't stop! All the storylines are interesting and well portrayed. The first 2 seasons focused more on her family and the season 3 focuses more on school life and politics. I wish we could see more of Rita's children on the show. I love it whenever Ricco, Molly and Jeppe appear. I'd like to see more of them. And soon season 5 starts! Awesome!!

I am from Norway and me and my sisters have watched this series together. Season 1 was amazing and it really got us to love the series. Season 2 kept it quite good and we kept loving the characters we fell in love with. But at Season 3 we all agreed that it was getting worse and we got bored of some of the characters. When we found out Season 4 came out we didn't watch it at first but I wanted to see how it all went with the Characters I once fell in Love with. After watching the first episode I had a feeling this might get us back into the series we all Loved.

I got all of us together and we sat down and watched Season 4 IT WAS AMAZING! Seriously the acting was perfect and the younger version of Rita and her story was done so perfect. We all understood why she hated her mother for leaving and more. It all made sense and it was incredible to watch.

It was sad but heartwarming and the emotions we felt together was really amazing.

I dont think this series could have been as good if season 4 wasn't made the way it was and I sadly think alot of people have already given up on the series and wont get to Season 4. But if they do they will truly love this series.

I was personally amazed on how all the acting was put together and it is hard to explain how good it was.

But if you have not gotten to Season 4 you are missing out watch Season 4 its WORTH IT!

Second Scand. series I've watched (Bonus Family was frist) and do i ever like both. Maybe NetFlix needs a separate category for them. They are highly entertaining and have the rare ability to get my attention almost from the first minute to the last and I instantly bond with all of the characters. Can't say that about many American series other than Breaking Bad and the Americans. Anyway, I am turning into a Scandinavian admirer and enjoying every minute of it

What a ride this show is! All the characters are perfectly cast and presented. Rita is obnoxious and she certainly must give off a whiff with all that smoking, but you definitely want her on your side, because really she is an example of a very decent human being. Hjordis is the most wonderfully vulnerable yet amazingly strong person you could wish to meet and the fact that she and Uffe can converse fluently in Elvish is a stroke of genius. This series has made me gasp in horror, giggle hysterically, cry in anger and sadness, laugh out loud at some of the antics, repulsed me in some scenes and warmed my heart in others. It is so well rounded and although the last episode is not a cliffhanger and could be a suitable end I do hope there will be more. Please let there be more....
