Ted Sarandos, Co-CEO of Netflix, and Steven Van Zandt, star of Lilyhammer sit down to discuss the road to making one of Netflix's first original series!
What I love about the show is how unbelievably believable it is. If you have ever lived in Norway, you know it's not totally fiction. The characters from Lilyhammer totally exist!
This was such a good show. I hate that it was cancelled. I started watching during a very difficult time in my life, I was going through horrible withdrawal symptoms from opioids and benzos and this show somehow made it more bearable. I have been clean for 10 years now thankfully, but I still take it one day at a time!
@@5urg3xfuck. It happens man, most people in recovery relapse sooner or later. I quit benzos & opiates 3 months ago and relapsed twice. I’m almost a month clean now (again) and it’s tough as shit but I know life will be much brighter on the other side. As addicts, escapism is in our nature, so replacing escapism through drugs with escapism in the form of TV shows, movies, music etc. is one of the best things you can do. Rewatching Lilyhammer rn and I love it
How you holding up now bro? Those benzos are a butch to get off of along with the opiates I got off the same shit I couldn’t sleep for what felt like weeks after getting off the benzos but being put on suboxone saved my life truly, if you haven’t tried it you should brother I’m rooting for you
@Pixel Station Yeh time just catches up with people, BUT if you look at bumbling Joe BIden, the leader of the free world who is 77, maybe theres still a chance for him! LOL
I always thought the reason it only lasted three seasons was because most people don't have the attention span to read subtitles. It was a great show but impossible to find all seasons on region 1 dvd. They need to release a new box set for US.
I absolutely love this Show! I think they messed up when the female agent destroyed the back room poker games. They should have kept it, and made more scenes in jt. Nonetheless Season 1 and 2 are GREAT!
I really enjoyed Lilyhammer. Watched it in 3 days. Lillhammer deserves definitely another season!!! Love it! Original script, original actours, humor, suspension, beautifull scenery. One more season!
Watching it for the 4th time now, done so every couple of years. It’s just the perfect combination of British, Scandinavian and US humor, with great writing and amazing characters - a pinch larger than life. The soundtrack just immediately puts me at ease. That first (train) scene just really sets the tone, doesn’t it. Even though I’d always love to see more, I think the story finishes out pretty good.
Silvio Dante created Netflix and he gave us, Stranger Things featuring Christopher Moltisanti’s Second Girlfriend-turned wife Kelli Moltisanti-Lombardo 😂😂😂
I liked the first season of Lillyhammer. They got a little too ambitious in season 2 and they continued on that path in season 3.. Seems like they tried to match the epicness of The Sopranos without succeeding. They tried to be more than they had any right to be. Could be the reason why we never got a fourth season
My favourite Netflix series to date, and in serious need of some good closure! I wish the fates lined up for us to be gifted with the news of a fourth season or at least a movie… That entire cast & team was completely awesome!!
Yes, the European originals are absolutely watchable. Jaime Lannister (Nikolaj Coster-Waldau) lay completely naked in bed in the Danish original film for Nightwatch, - unfortunately Ewan McGregor did not.....
Lilyhammer aired on international TV before it hit Netflix in the US. House of Cards is Netflix's first original series...but shhhh, we can't talk about that show anymore.
It was aired in Norway by NRK the producer 10 days before it was released in North America. Then later in the year after it had been released in a lot of Europe it was released on Netflix in the Nordics.

Always loved the series. Wish for another season or, a movie would be lovely.
Agreed!
At least give it a proper ending.
Look at Sopranos i saw this first Then Sopranos
@@5urg3x søren også jeg savner Urge intense
Lilyhammer is still my favorite Netflix show. \m/

The real Lillyhammer town is called “Lillehammer”

@@Rawnervzz How crazy. That you replied to my comment on today of all days. I relapsed. Don’t let it happen to you.

Man this hate on opiates really sucks. They help me so much with my chronic pain. Id have killed myself years ago if opiates didn't exist.
Please make more seasons. There's so much opportunity still left in Lilyhammer!
I wanted a fourth season so bad !! Jan was unreal
YA.. YAAAAHAH
It took long enough for him to get what he deserved. At least we got closure for his character.
Great show! So underrated and many forget it was Netflix first Original Series
Just watched these seasons, I WAS SO pissed to fin no fourth season wtf
As a Norwegian i love the series and wish for more! :D
Still my favourite Netflix show of all time!!
Really enjoyed Lillyhammer. Really wanted more seasons
Brilliant, BUT, whens the next series coming????????????????
@Pixel Station Yeh time just catches up with people, BUT if you look at bumbling Joe BIden, the leader of the free world who is 77, maybe theres still a chance for him! LOL
Netflix cancelled it long time ago, like they does with every good show
Great show Torgeir and Johnny were so good together!
Great show , wished there was more shows
More seasons I'm on my 5th round of all the seasons
Such a great tv show. They brought in a new energy. It viewers to learn about other culture. Lilyhammer bright a somewhat slice of life of Norway
I always thought the reason it only lasted three seasons was because most people don't have the attention span to read subtitles. It was a great show but impossible to find all seasons on region 1 dvd. They need to release a new box set for US.
And we are still waiting for the new season!
Would love to see this back out as a fourth series also...
BRING IT BACK

Epic show, too bad it ended. Makes me want to try to move to Norway!
Me 2 😭
Best Netflix series out there. Loved it from start to finish, wish they had of been more!

I love this show. Please make a new season..
Being a Londoner. The story of the millwall brick was hilarious. 😂
The reason I signed up for Netflix back then… should have made a couple more seasons!

Ted please green light more seasons
Yes, the European originals are absolutely watchable. Jaime Lannister (Nikolaj Coster-Waldau) lay completely naked in bed in the Danish original film for Nightwatch, - unfortunately Ewan McGregor did not.....
Too bad netflix had lost its way
You know
Sucks arne died
I want so badly for Lilyhammer to come back! So sad to see it go. Love everything about it! ❤
We love Lillyhammer. Thank you for a wonderful show. Bring it back!
80th comment 👍
Why is the first season still not released on BluRay in the UK? Is there a new boxset with all 3 seasons coming out too? (On bluray or 4k)
Yes! Reminds me of Sweden too! It sounds almost identical to Swedish!
Jättekul!🤗
Lillyhamer did also bring Angelina Jordan to the world. A thing also to remember.
That series was an absolute masterpiece.... Just brilliant.
Thank You for the Gem. I Wanna Propose A Toast!

Little Stevie 😂😂😂😂Syl is a Alive and well 🎉
We want a new season please the show was amaziing
Loved the show...
Das Boot was awesome in German
LOVED Lilyhammer!
Definitely garbage compare the Sopranos . Especially the fact it’s supposed to be a “” mob”” show🤦🏻♂️
it litterally says crime-comedy in most descriptions, not sure what you missed on that part
🤡
One of the best shows Netflix ever put out, but in typical Netflix fashion, they cancelled the show before it even ended.
