Lilyhammer

February 23rd, 2012 · 1 Comment · Family Life

David and I have been watching the Netflix original series, Lilyhammer.

The show is about an American Mafia guy who agrees to testify against his old gang in exchange for witness protection and relocation.  He choses Lilyhammer, Norway having seen in while watching the Olympics.  My husband tells me the star, Steven Van Zandt was in “The Sopranos,” but I didn’t watch that show, so it doesn’t mean much to me.

This is a quirky little show that I will watch more of if they decide to make more.

Most of the dialogue is in Norwegian with English subtitles.  I had the volume low because “hey I don’t understand Norwegian!”  My husband reached out to turn the volume up.  I asked him if he was doing that under the theory that if you speak louder and slower a foreigner will understand better.

    Funny. I wonder if you watch it long and loud enough if you’ll pick up any Norwegian?
