Synopsis

Klovn is a Danish sitcom, which first aired on the Danish TV channel TV2 Zulu. It focuses on the life of the main character Frank and Casper. The show builds its comedy around quiet everyday situations, social awkwardness, uncomfortable silences and general faux pas. Klovn usually gets compared to the American sitcom Curb Your Enthusiasm by Larry David. It’s also shot handheld, in a pseudo-realistic style. Some have also mistakenly compared the theme to Curb Your Enthusiasm’s, despite it being a direct reference to Jacques Tati’s Mr. Hulot movies. The poster for the first film can be seen in Casper and Frank’s offices throughout the series. Klovn initially ran 6 seasons on TV2 Zulu from 2005-2009 and was renewed with an additional 3 seasons that aired from 2018-2022.

PodBill Just what I expected
TrueHello Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.
Voxitype Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.
Lucia Ayala It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.
Lumpychunks I discovered this show while visiting a friend in Denmark last year. During some downtime, my friend convinced me to watch a few episodes of Klovn on DVD, proclaiming, it's a Danish Curb your enthusiasm. Before I knew it, I bought the entire box set to take home to my friends in Australia. This show is fantastic, it really draws you in and commands you to watch episode after episode. I laughed myself stupid throughout the whole series and I could easily watch the whole thing repeatedly. Some people have called it a Danish Curb your enthusiasm, but I would dare say that this show is better. Curb maintains it hilarity for about 3 seasons, before becoming predictable and unrealistic. Klovn stays funny and true to itself for the entire 6 seasons. Also, as a side note, if you've ever been to Denmark, this show transports you back there, it's a really beautiful country.
eve ann This show is just so funny! I have been wanting to see this series after reading up on it, but when we got the DVD i was disappointed that it had no English subtitles. So my boyfriend (good thing he's Danish!) took the sweetest task of translating for me as we watched, and we couldn't stop laughing! We wonder how it could happen but it did... we guess it must be because Frank and Casper's facial expressions and movements are so silly, and the two women Mia and Iben are really seriously funny as well. And of course, my boyfriend's way of translating the dialogue was done with a real talent and i love him for it. Great show guys!
heidi-183 Everything happens to Frank, and its because he's so stupid. You think: Now it would be a really bad idea to do THAT, and then the second later he's in the very situation you would hate to see him in. A very good piece of entertainment if you are into the danish humor, which is very ironic and harsh. For instance they make fun of being a racist, which is kind of a tender topic these days. But it seems alright in the series because it's only the "bad" guy Frank who is a racist and he is totally voted down on this point of view and it bites himself in the ass in the end. They really had a good idea when they made this show happen because after their big hits like "Far from Las Vegas" they needed a new face in front, they've been using Casper Christensen all the time and Frank has been along the side from the beginning. So the switch of focus has not only been a success but they made Casper an asshole and that is quite funny for the Danes because everyone knows that he is very nice in real life.
thomas-110 "Klovn" is a comedy show apparently based on real events. It has a semi-documentary style to it, very much like the innovative American comedy series "Curb Your Enthusiasm". Although very much in its infancy, I must say that "Klovn" looks great, and that is due to the wonderful writing and the fact that the people behind it are Denmarks best comedians - Casper Christensen and Frank Hvam. They continue to take Danish sit-coms to new levels, and "Klovn" is another fine piece of work. So never mind that the idea was not their own to begin with.The rest of the acting line-up consists of accomplished actors and actresses, for example is Iben Hjelje (High Fidelity) one of the supporting actresses on show here.If you're fond of real-lifelike, embarrassing situations acted out by very funny people, this is a show you must see.
