Lillehammer Concludes

We watched the finale of Lillehammer last weekend. As discussed earlier this is an original series released by Netflix. Starring Little Steven as a mobster put in Witness Protection and chooses to move to Norway. Why, he was a huge fan of the Olympics.

Just eight episodes long the series covers lots of ground. With any show such as this before you invest you want to make sure that the show is going to make it. In today's world you can after the fact watch a season or two and get caught up.

Netflix has said that they would like to make another season of the show. Of course Little Steven is a pretty busy fellow, as his commitments with Bruce Springsteen and the current tour are significant.

Still the show and these eight episodes are stand alone strong. I highly reccomend you to watch it. It is worth your time and second season or not there is resolution enough the story arcs to satisfy.

I do not want to give away too much of the show, but the series is strong and very enjoyable. Van Zandt is underrated, he can pull off a line in a wry way that makes you not appreciate him enough.

The only thing I would change. The subtitles, for the Norwegian speak, often appear over the current scene and if the colors blend are hard to read. It could do with a black background for the subtitles.

Still a very good show. Watch it.
