Milliardærøya

The whole tv show is about "boss women" going after the traditional ways of life. A family where the mother is a billionaire (which is very unrealistic since in reality all the female billionaires got their money from divorcing their billionaire husbands), a stay at home dad who smokes weed all the time, a son who is a nobody, an older daughter who works for the mother and she's also the boss of her husband and she cheat on him with the young intern.

This show is all about "women are in power" or whatever. I'm truly tired of watching these garbage shows. Please stop with your agendas and produce something worthwhile.

Series checks all the boxes of "rich family in charge of large business empire". Messed up family. Rivalry with another similar family. Question on how to react to changes in the world and industry. Outside players trying to muscle in. An event that upends existing situation. Generational shift bringing conflict within family. Backstabbing.

So in that regard it's not terribly original. Succession, Yellowstone.... What makes it different, and appealing, is unusual setting, at least for global audience. We are used to seeing corporate lords living on New York, maybe Los Angeles, leading media or finance companies. Here we get small Norwegian town where families battle for dominance of salmon industry.

There is quite a bit of "we don't do things American way, we are more conscious of impact we make and try to be ethical, but actually not really". Privileged elite is privileged, but not in a way 0,1% Americans would be.

There are few outright funny scenes, such as magnate flipping out at cake shop because they used wrong font and saleswoman not taking his crap, but the humour is mostly satire, contextual and subtle.

Worth the watch.

I went in with low expectations but couldn't stop watching. The cinematography was beautiful and stunning, easily the best part of the show. The story itself was a typical family drama with infighting for control of a billion-dollar business, but the characters were compelling, and the twists kept coming. I enjoyed many of the story arcs, and for me, it explored a part of the world and industry I wasn't familiar with-Norwegian culture and the salmon industry, which added novelty. While the story seemed to conclude, I'm hoping for a sequel. Hope the series gets more viewers and we get an encore.

Well rating is over 6 on imdb right now but it will soon go down faster than a fat boy on a seesaw

No this is not a good tv show, its a story without material, its a comedy without humour and its a drama without ideas, its just nothing, there is situations where you actually believe something is going to happends but then its just fade out and nothing happends again

More drama than comedy, wich is a bit typical for all of these series, its just too little funny things and just too much of the boring things and it was too much people in the serie aswell, hard to remember who is who , no this is just not a good serie.

I started watching this TV series without high expectations. At first it would seem like another one of those supposedly humorous Nordic series that quickly becomes boring, but after a while it became a very good surprise. The plot is not particularly new, but the approach is very fun and innovative. In some ways it feels like a mix of Sussectionion and Fargo. Good actors, beautiful landscapes and a typical Nordic and sarcastic humor to match. For many who are not used to Nordic series, the cultural differences may be strange and take some time to relate to.

Very good. I highly recommend it and I look forward to the second season.
