A not fully truthfull but really fun description of the events following the stranded Russian U-boat in Swedish waters. I myself served in the army during this event and can assure that it was a really tense situation. The following decade was full of imagined incidents. U-boats, russian divers snooping around in Stockholm, spies taking pictures in prohibited areas. Some of it probably true, some of it probably just "the Russian scare" running amok in peoples imagination. It was a another time then, God knows what would happen today if there was a U-boat loaded with nuclear warheads stranded yet again...
See this as satire rooted in reality-90% truth, but with 10% fiction to keep the audience engaged and able to take in all the real absurdities that are hard to believe actually happened.
It's a mix between The Office, Blackadder, and Russians being their authentic selves. Many great characters and well-acted performances.
To truly appreciate the series, you probably need to have lived during the time it takes place. The settings and details are spot-on. A phone booth becomes a secure phone line, someone traveling is, of course, unreachable until they arrive, and everyone smokes freely everywhere. The calm and diplomatic Swedish approach clashes with the more confrontational American mentality.
And the Soviet Union's complete lack of competence in waging war is just like Russia today. But they compensate with alcohol. Sure, it's satire at a high level, but satire is grounded in truth and a sense of relatability.
Take the series for what it is-a fun satire. But if you have the time and interest to do a bit of research afterward, you'll be surprised how much of what made you laugh actually happened in real life.

It's meant to be comical and take into far sometimes. It pokes fun at all nationalities involved. If you like Guy Richie movies, this is a good series for you. It is weird in places. The actors are not meant to be like the leaders at the time. They're meant to just give a comical taste of the serious events that actually happened. It's Swedish production. So let them do what they want with it! Great fun, edgy, & you want another series really.
Good film effects & camera shots. Probably boast, but the only British actor is Mark Noble who plays The President of USA & his scenes are the funniest! Good humour!

This is really an unusual nordic TV series. It has epic scenes, and a very funny satirical tone.
Loved the humor, and you can sense it's the same team that was behind the hundred years old man movie. Definitely not your usual nordic noir production. The pace, the tone, the dialogues, and the editing are a welcome change from most swedish programmes. A fun ride. Great acting performances. Rolf Lassgård is brilliant, and Mark Noble delivers an amazing part as Ronald Reagan.
I watched it on SVT in Sweden, and for what I understand it's going to be released on Disney + later this year. Warmly recommended.

This is a welcome satirical tale in dark times. We need more laughs, not less. I don't see the problem of doing a comedy based on true facts. This was a dramatic but also embarrassing event at the time it happened. A breath of fresh air for fans of Armando Ianucci and Jonas Jonasson. Clever script, wrapping uncomfortable truths in humor and absurdity.
For a Swedish production, the humor is biting, and often dark, but it's also grounded in very human moments.
Some great and tense wargame scenes.
Whiskey on the Rocks is an nice addition to the landscape of dark comedy and satires on television.

- ट्रिवियाThe premise follows the unofficial Soviet explanation at the time, that a wild drinking party on board had caused the grounding. This was widely discredited by the Swedes as implausible for a number of reasons.
- गूफ़The real-life captain, Anatoly Gushchin, was in his 30s, not an elderly man as depicted. The politruk, GRU officer Vasily Besedin, was the same age. Moreover, the Chief of Staff Josef Avrukyevich (sometimes named Avsukyevich) was on board as a supervisor with a role that has yet to be established, which the series omits.
