Anno 1790 (2011)
Fantastic Swedish TV...Again!
I am in love with this program. I'll tell you that I am learning lots of Swedish watching Annon 1790. Where do I start? The actors are obviously having a lot of fun making this show. The historical value to this dumb American is priceless. Stockholm in the 1790's is not at all what I had expected! Midwives that practice abortions! Murder of orphaned children for the sake of profit! Repressive Catholics! Soon to be adulterous affair!! This is my guilty pleasure. The Swedes are a beautiful people, for sure. The star of the show is HOT...the object of his affection, the very married Madelane...oh, and she is married to the protagonists boss, by the way!! Oh what a tangled web everyone is falling into. Oh and don't forget the Libertarians beginning to rise against the King..oh yeah,,,a hot frothy stew is starting to boil over...! Yes, I am addicted to Swedish crime drama and none is better that Annon 1790. I've been singing it's praises to my family and friends on Facebook for months now. They think I have a problem...Ja ja... But I'm learning Swedish, mom!!
