Better than it looks

The lead character is a no-nonsense tough Italian guy from New York who chooses - on a whim - to emigrate to the middle of nowhere in Norway. While it looks like it's trying to be comedy, it's mostly just the absurd situations that get a smirk or two. But it's trying.

The smirky situation, by definition, is anti-woke. When a woke situation arises, the badass gangster handles it the way a gangster would. This includes otherwise huggy-commie-pansy situations as well. It's possible that the Norwegian filmmakers used the concept as a platform to air their frustration with the ineffective policies of their country, showing what problems could be more easily solved with a mobster kinda guy.

There is some "ooh, racist white cops after brown people" stuff, but it's Norway, where are the people are white anyway, so that's kind of unavoidable. There are some drag queens, but that's kind of a joke, not a LGBTPedo thing. So far, so good. (Still on the first season - may change this later...) Very good, actually.
