Lilyhammer

We have started watching the series Lilyhammer on Netflix.  The story is what it is but hearing the characters speak Norwegian, the English accents and seeing the activities of daily Norwegian life gives us a taste of being back in Norway.  Having lived in Norway we are getting more out of the series than most North American viewers.  Some liberties have been taken to make the show "Americanized" but overall the writers have done a good job of making it true to Norwegian life along with inserting some subtle humor.  For at least a brief period it feels like we are experiencing the home life of one of our former homes.
