The pressure was high when this Swedish TV-series was going to air. There had been commercials for it, and of course all my friends was sitting in front of the TV to watch the first episode of "Ebba & Didrik".I was only 10 years old, but I can still remember how much I loved "Ebba & Didrik". All the actors were perfect in their characters, and the feeling you got was that everything was genuine. Something you must feel if it is a program for younger people. Otherwise you will get bored.If you get the chance, see "Ebba & Didrik" and remember your own childhood of dreams, love, and new life experiences!

This Swedish TV-series gem is a writing, directing and acting triumph all the way. It's the warm, compassionate and laugh-out-loud funny tale of a young brother and sister growing up in a small town in the south of contemporary Sweden. The main focus is on Ebba and Didrik's tentative ventures into love- their (puppy) love stories and crushes are hilarious, heartbreaking and... so endearing - but it also revolves on the Reng family and their tragicomic domestic clashes and relationships. Arnell and Widerberg are simply human wonders in the title roles- rarely have such effortless performances by young actors swept me away as seen here. The breathtaking coastal location, beautifully photographed, adds a lot to the fresh, beguiling spirit of the whole series, which also presents wonderful side characters. Simply as 'swede' as can be!!
