Do Nada, Grávida

I just want to add my 8-star rating to this marvelous series. Danish TV in general is pretty great and this particular series is really top-notch. I like it even better than "Rita," which is saying a lot!

I had such a great time watching Babyfieber! From the very first scene, it had that perfect mix of wit, warmth, and just the right amount of chaos. The characters felt real and relatable, the humor landed exactly where it should, and the pacing kept me completely engaged.

It's one of those shows that doesn't try to be something it's not - it just delivers a fun, heartfelt story that you can enjoy without overthinking. I genuinely laughed out loud more than once, and I loved the way it balanced the comedic moments with genuine emotion.

And honestly, to the eternal buzzkills who can't handle a bit of lighthearted fun: just watch something else. This one's for those of us who still know how to enjoy ourselves.

The first season is okay, but the second one gets noticeably worse. The protagonist's lies are ridiculous and only make things worse.

Her personality isn't funny, charming, or engaging at all. The ethical choices are pretty questionable, and there's nothing particularly special about the show. I thought the actress did a good job, but the story and the character are weak.

The story is repetitive, the characters have no depth, and it feels like a comedy that tried to turn into a drama, but very poorly written. I couldn't even finish the second season. I don't really know the purpose of this series.

It starts off fairy simple in a Fertility Clinic in Copenhagen (you can switch the dialog to English), and rapidly gets far more emotionally complicated. I could empathise with all the characters in it, possibly because a colleague at work, knowing my wife and I had children, told me what it was like going to a Fertility Clinic with her husband in London.

They were so desperate to have a baby. This series both recognises, such work friendships, and such love, but takes it to such an emotionally complicated and intense level, that I find it difficult to not watch the next episode to find out what happens next..

Drama at it's Best.

Lead carries the story arc which is a perfect example of a Danish slow burn. She struggles with an internal debate pulling her constantly in oppositional directions. Impulsive choices not always benefit her and often to detriment of those she values dearly. Love and forgiveness are underlying themes, although oddly timed, as is often the case in real time. Highly recommend.
