A funny show !!

[viveger350 · 3 December 2005]

Man, I love Ronny & Ragge. They are funny, and two of the absolute most popular characters in Swedish comedy. I can't understand that no one else has commented this show. Check out Ragge with his blonde hair and big eyes :D Fredde Granberg does a hell of a job and steals the show completely from the other actors. He is even funnier than Robert Gustavsson, man. But Peter Settman as Ronny is a funny guy too, but he dosen't get enough room here all the time. But still, the chemistry and friendship between Ronny & Ragge is a wonderful thing to watch. Don't miss out on the DVD back in Sweden with the complete 3 seasons and bonus material !

Political irony at it's peak

[tungviktskungen · 10/10 · 23 October 2006]

Excellent Swedish comedy that captured the essence of Swedish mentality throughout the 90's. A backstabbing government had turned their backs on Swedish filmmakers and this is the response. Ronny and Ragge managed to do something that had been a hard nut to crack for the entire Swedish film-communion (nutley came close with änglagård but everything falls apart with Wolff), they showed the Swedish audience that political irony and classic slapstick were a winning concept in Sweden too. Ronny and Ragge are two typical middle-class Swedish teens in search for love, lust and political justice. They live in a quiet small town far away from the metropolitan city of Stockholm. They spend their time driving around in their car spreading their political agenda to the locals (mostly hill-billies and drunks). Ronny and Ragge takes you back to the time where the small town was something you praised. The little man in the big country. One would say a Swedish gilbert grape! Although Ronny and Ragge was aired one the legendary Swedish youth-show Unga tvåan(youth two) it got a wider audience than Swedish favorite host Ingvar Oldsberg. Swedish hillbilly jokes mixed with serious political message makes the Ronny and Ragge characters to two of the most important teenage stars of the 90's. A must see!
