crazy funny; a weird ad for IKEA
28 April 2013 | by (London, UK) – See all my reviews

Actress, Illeana Douglas, playing herself, is trying to get out of "Hollywood" by working in IKEA as a sort of entertainer to raise morale and co-worker team spirit. The only Episodes I've found are short, mainly less than ten minutes each, and are full of cameos by well known names - keep your eyes peeled. It's laugh out loud funny in places, but very very odd and quirky, with a lot of abstract situational laughs and set up Swedish impressions. Set in a real IKEA situation, not an ersatz-IKEA, there are lots of Swedish training segments, which are always a giggle. I can't believe how weird this is and how someone came to think of it. Michael Irpino, playing Lance Krapp, the camp over-enthusiastic IKEAn is fun, and I really like him. Justine Bateman, again playing herself, is the main competition to Illeana's plans, and the cute, funny, musical-guy is Robert Mailhouse. Enjoyable.

Are these little clips the whole episodes or just teasers? Perhaps there is more! But where?!
