    Ari's hilarious

    Really good. The Nords are famous for their dark crime shows and have an undeserved reputation of being on the morose side. It's really cool to see their light funny side protrayed for a change ? If you liked Ari I'd check out a Finnish comic called Ismo. He's good too.

    Ari hits the nail on the head or the funny bond rather , especially with the Danes. Good natured feel good stuff. Excellent accents. Only one joke didn't work so well, (the pope one), which is impressive for an hour long show in your non native language.

    Look forward to seeing him again.

    Fantastic show.

    Fantastic show. Worth the watch. No further review as comedy has to be experienced instead of repeated.

    Fantastic show!

    Wholesome, clever jokes that did not fail to make me laugh. I loved Ari's different accents and his impressive use of other languages. A fantastic special. I am excited to see more of Ari in the future.

    Ari deserves this!

    As an Icelander, seeing one of our funniest comedians get a Netflix special is AMAZING! And it did not disappoint. There's a lot that can be made fun of about Iceland and if you're interested in Scandinavian humor this is a great standup for you!
