Casper Christensen has always been there to experience new and odd humor for the plesure of tons of danes. We first saw him in the TV-show "Husk Lige Tandbørsten" ("Remember the Toothbrush") with his co-host Anette, who was soon to become his wife.
Now he's buisy with programmes like "Langt fra Las Vegas" ("Far from Las Vegas") and the radio-programme "Alfabetridderne" ("Knights of the Alphabet"). But I most say, that nothing will ever come near "Casper & Mandril Aftalen"! It's a programme with so low humor, that it makes it even funnier! It's so out there, that you sometimes can's stop laughing, only of the reason, that it makes no sence at all! I can clearly recommend this show for every one with a different kind of humor! Thumbs Up!

Casper & Mandrilaftalen is maybe the funniest danish comedy-show ever.
Casper Christensen made a funny show, where they did not care about the number of viewers. Lasse Rimmer, Lars Hjortshøj and Frank Hvam was on it, and they made a lot of funny sketches and some of the most crazy characters I have seen on TV.
It was too extreme for many, but some people watched it (it was sent very late) and 4 years later we still remember it. Broder Salsa, Gentlemann Finn, Pelle Klumpfeber, Bjarne Goldbæk and all the others! Great show with fantastic humor, watch it!

When i first time saw this show i was totally finished, because it was so funny that i could not stop laughing. i will recommend it to everyone that want to get a big laugh. A fantastic and crazy show i have ever seen.
When I first watched "Casper & Mandril Aftalen" I didn't have any idea about what I was going in to.
It's quite hard to describe what the show actually was about. Casper Christensen - the host, sat behind a desk and did all sorts of crazy things. The show always started with Casper showing his very special list of what was to come on the show. An example: "23.15: German lock smith buys brave panda." It's hard to convey the crazy on goings in the show so I'll leave it to those who are lucky enough to be able to watch the show.
Top marks: 87 out of 10

Watching Casper & Mandrilaftalen is like learning to play classical piano. It takes somebody to force you into it, it is boring, frustrating and confusing, but after a while, a whole new universe opens to the exclusive crowd (Mainly Danish-speaking weirdos)...
The show is by far the craziest, funniest and most ground-breaking TV show ever made - it makes shows like Monty Python look mainstream. The show revolves around the host, Casper, who present "news", invites "guests" (played by the other actors) and displays "talent shows". Most of what is being said *lobster soup! already now* seems completely without any structure, or without any purpose. However, by allowing *everything*, the creativity of the actors are spurred, and sharp-edged satire and criticism of "the establishment" is mixed with meaningless, absurd scenes.
You will not be able to appreciate fully this show if you watch it like you'd watch "Friends" or "Spin City", you have yo allow your fantasy flow with the fast pace, the crazy colors and the wicked universe, and you'll have almost as much fun as the authors had making it...
Just don't ask "why"...
On a scale from 1 to 10, it gets one billion killer-toucan beacons!
