Mot i brøstet

One of the best shows in the mid 90s in Norway. The show holds up pretty well in todays busy and caotic times, as the show provides humor from simplier times in many peoples lives.

This TV show is so good. i laugh so much each time i watch it. i have so many great memories from when i was a little boy watching this show on TV2. And now when i've watched this on DVD i get a bit sad that they quit the show after only 8 seasons. it has so many great actors like Arve Opsahl and Sven Nordin two amazing actors who always are funny. Oh and i can't forget Nils Vogt he makes me laugh so much that i almost cried at the end, like in the episode when he was in Copenhagen and the guy asks him that thing.(everybody who's seen the episode knows what i mean) some episodes just makes me happy. like the Christmas specials. When i watch them i think of how much

With this show Norwegian comedy-writer Tore Ryen certainly showed that he knew what his countrymen needed on tv in the 90's, and by the standards of this show the answer was... crap!

This has to be the worst sit-com in the history of all sit-com's. OK, that's maybe pulling it a bit far but the quality and the stupidity of this show was at times mind-blowing (that is, unless you were 10 years old at the time). Had it not been for the fact that it had some great comedy actors (in desperate need of becoming a tv-star?) the hollow writing of Tore Ryen would have shown off more clearly. To top it all off he has no business directing, yet he had the nerve to do so on a number of occasions. The proof of the latter showed in his later sit-com "Holms" where he got his stepdaughter to co-star and the show is like an ABC of how NOT to direct child "actors".

Man, gee wiz, give this man a ticket to Sweden!

I used to think that this was quite fun, but that was way back in 1993-94. Nowadays, I find the humour very irritating, predictable and just boring. The series is about Karl Reverud and the people who live with him. And they all say and do "funny things". The problem is that it isn`t funny. All the episodes are the same, and the series suffers from overacting, which doesn`t help it at all.

The best thing is to avoid this and its sequel: Karl & co, which is even worse.

Oh my God!!!! I loved this show! I would laugh so hard I just about fell off the couch! I laughed until I was out of breath and tears were spurting out of my eyes. I almost had a stomach ache after every single half hour of this show. I hope it all comes out on a collection DVD!!!
