This is actually pretty good. 

 

The premise is that a wiseguy turns informant, then goes into protective custody, where he picks Lillihammer as his new home, because he thought it was beautiful on TV, during the 94' Olympics.

 

Steven Van Zandt stars and is one of the executive producers.

Friend of mine is always going on about this. I love Steven and will eventually get around to watching it.

Glad to hear another positive review.

Yup.

Pretty addicting.

I really enjoyed the first season but haven't gotten around to watch the new ones.

Yeah decent show. Let's see if they can improve it further in the second season.

I fell asleep watching episode 1 but I may give it another chance.

I am having a hard time with Season 2.  In season 1 the show was captioned so that you knew what they were saying when they spoke Norwegian, but the captions were not on for the English speakers.  In Season 2 it comes default with no captioning, so, now I have to go into my Roku player and turn on captions.  Doing it this way means that I have to have captions for English and Norwegian speakers, which is distracting and annoying.  It is a nit, but it is keeping me watching the show as frequently as I did for Season 1.

I'm watching season 2, and the captioning is there for the Norwegian?

I just quickly checked and the caption is on for Norwegian but not for English - on both Netflix app on my iPhone and on Apple TV.

I'm not seeing the captioning on my Roku 2.  Haven't checked the Roku 3.

Mystery solved.  It works on the Roku 3 in my bedroom but not the Roku 2 in the living room.  Roku seems to want everyone to switch to the Roku 3.
