Un hijo tuyo

The main actress carries the series from start to finish on her shoulders and does it magnificently! The story takes some time to build momentum but creates a very unique, insightful and heartbreaking conflict between the love for a partner and love for a child.

I am only 19 years old and children are still beyond my horizon but this series gives a great glimpse into the (future) responsibility of parenthood and the difficult choices of women at the end of their 30s, early 40s, who have to decide if they want kids now or never. While I am slowly becoming a young adult this series helped me to understand where I am going to be in 20 years and make present and future decisions accordingly. While the decision of the protagonist to impregnate herself in the last 6 months of being fertile is reckles and morally wrong, the viewer can identify with her and understands her motivation fully.

The resolution of the conflict and collaps of her lies in the last two episodes were long coming. They offer a great opportunity for the protagonist to redeem herself, but also to show the dilemma she is in. Either way she could only lose. Just like most women she was looking for a partner while the clock of her body was clicking. So she had to either rely on fate and fortune to find a partner at the right time, or to take her fate in her own hands while risking the career of a friend and losing her true love.

The music is very subtle, yet fits the overall mood of the series and theme. The characters are believable and storyline builds steadily and slowly. The cinematography, lighting and mood is both scandinavian due to the subdued colors and intimate through the constant focus on the protagonist's struggle.

I had such a great time watching Babyfieber! From the very first scene, it had that perfect mix of wit, warmth, and just the right amount of chaos. The characters felt real and relatable, the humor landed exactly where it should, and the pacing kept me completely engaged.

It's one of those shows that doesn't try to be something it's not - it just delivers a fun, heartfelt story that you can enjoy without overthinking. I genuinely laughed out loud more than once, and I loved the way it balanced the comedic moments with genuine emotion.

And honestly, to the eternal buzzkills who can't handle a bit of lighthearted fun: just watch something else. This one's for those of us who still know how to enjoy ourselves.

I just want to add my 8-star rating to this marvelous series. Danish TV in general is pretty great and this particular series is really top-notch. I like it even better than "Rita," which is saying a lot!

The first season is okay, but the second one gets noticeably worse. The protagonist's lies are ridiculous and only make things worse.

Her personality isn't funny, charming, or engaging at all. The ethical choices are pretty questionable, and there's nothing particularly special about the show. I thought the actress did a good job, but the story and the character are weak.

The story is repetitive, the characters have no depth, and it feels like a comedy that tried to turn into a drama, but very poorly written. I couldn't even finish the second season. I don't really know the purpose of this series.

... three hours of Skruk is not enough... or should be said, three hours of Joe Park is not-enough, for she is Baby Fever... the basic premise is simple, yet evolves well-into-not-simple... these productions take nerve and a steady hand to pull-off-well

... Park makes it all come together in a most compelling fashion.. when she's onscreen, you can't turn away... she gives so many different looks to Nana, many times within the same scene... it's a very noteworthy performance in a simple little show... one that all who really like it, look forward with great anticipation to season two, with possibility of season three.
