You can't really say that "Hem till Midgård" contains high quality humor. At best, it can serve as pastime if you have nothing better to do. However the series, despite taking place in the Viking age, actually reflects today's Swedish society in some interesting ways, and what makes Sweden contrast to the rest of Europe. For example: * The episode Stripporna ("Strippers", season 1, episode 7), where Lill-Snorre hires some decadent Eastern European women as strippers, to make his pub more attractive. But it all ends with Lill-Snorre and his male friends, as poetic justice, being forced to striptease themselves instead.* The episode Tyskarna ("The Germans", season 2, episode 4) where a wealthy German family visits Lill-Snorres village Midgård. The Germans, however, turn out to be swingers. It all ends with the morally outraged Midgård village people beating up the supposed, dirty German pigs.These things would be unthinkable in a Danish or other European sitcom. This is far from the 1970's image of Swedes as "liberated" people, and has more in common with American puritan culture.So despite being bad entertainment, I find "Hem till Midgård" to be a funny contemporary document of Sweden in the 2000's.

C'mon! This series sucks! If any TV-station from any country, except Sweden, wants to buy a Swedish comedy-series; don't choose this one, for gods sake!!! It's really childish, and stupid. Buy Kvarteret Skatan instead! That one's much funnier.This one contains people tripping, burping, and farting. childish! Fredde Granberg who created this series should continue making TV for children like he used to. This is just stupid! Oh! And one more thing (just to fill the space, I can't post it otherwise). Hem Till Midgård actually can be fun sometimes, but that's not very often. And I'm very easily amused. ;)

...if they got the same money to produce whatever. Even if you have a Name, you shouldn't just be allowed to do anything. But well, children up to the age of 10 or men still on the level of 10-year-olds may appreciate the level of humour. Else, I suggest this show to be avoided.

"Hem Till Midgård" Is a really funny series that was first shown on TV in Sweden and is now out on DVD "Hem till Midgård I" and "Hem till Midgård II" 6 parts per DVD.The plot: The son of the viking chief Snorre and his warriors had made their last loot raid in the far east, Then we follow his failure son Lill-snorre to control his village Midgård with the help of his dumb friends. Lill-snorre got a mission from his father to guard his booty the beautiful Cassandra. But Lill-snorre can`t keep his hand to him self and starts a forbidden relationship with Cassandra. The rest you must see for your self.So far I have not found any subtitle. The series remains in Swedish.
