Norsemen 2016

I hoped this comedy series would look humorous on Viking culture and maybe make a statement about the American series "The Vikings" in the process but no. A great cast of Norwegian actors and actresses but with the exception of Henrik Mestad as the king there is not enough depth in the characters. The first episode is okay introduction, but it all falls apart later with predictable jokes and bodily fluids gags. There seem to be a punchline that I miss and I find this mostly to be a rude sitcom with a better-than-usual budget. Slimy Jon Øigarden is the best reason in season 2 to keep follow the show as the rest of the group never really grow on me.
