    Very entertaining

    This is a typical Scandinavian series with Scandinavian humor. I really enjoyed it when watching it on netflix. I see others think it is no good, but I guess he is not from Scandinavia. Several of my friends and family have also watched it and enjoyed it. Judge by yourself, is my recommendation. It starts with different swedes going to Thailand. One of them wants to meet his future wife, at least so he hopes. However, he ends up marrying a ladyboy. An old couple goes to their first foreign holiday, and the wife eventually frees herself from her dominating and demanding husband.

    Another family goes on holiday but ends up buying a resort on one of the islands.

    The story line follows them through their stay in Thailand,

    Recommend...3 stories of damaged people looking for escape

    I really enjoyed this show and am baffled by the comments of some previous reviewers. Yes, the characters are flawed. That's the point. We all are.

    The show features 3 different story lines of Swedish people who travel to Thailand for a new life: a lonely man looking for a wife; a career-driven mother of two who has neglected her family; and a meek older woman looking for escape from her emotionally abusive marriage.

    The Thai setting is quite beautiful and the journey each character goes through ranges from uplifting to tragic; it's a pretty sad story all in all but I loved the scenery, and I loved the music. Recommended.

    An accurate look at Thailand

    I live in Thailand and this is the best representation of typical day to day life in Thailand that I have seen in movies or TV. This is probably true because it is obviously filmed in Thailand, and shows glimpses outside the urban tourist areas. I have not encountered very many Thais with such good English skills as those depicted, but overall it is very accurate. I like that it shows the Thais in both good and bad lights. There are many women in Thailand like Narn that are out to fleece the foreigner for all they can, particularly in Phuket. But there are a lot more like Oh and Dit's family that are poor, hardworking and moral people. They even managed to capture some of the elitist arrogance of the police and government workers that is common in Thailand.

    What impresses me the most and to a minor degree detracts from the show for me is the depiction of the main character Swedes. To me it paints the Swedes in a very poor light. They are rude and arrogant towards the Thais, but most significant is that all of the main Swedish characters seem to be either completely clueless or batshit crazy. I repeatedly find myself chastising the characters for their stupidity and shaking my head in disbelief that anyone could be such idiots. I certainly hope that they are not representative of the typical Swede.

    It's True

    The reason why this show is so good is simply because all the reviews on here are accurate.

    this show is irreverent, dark, funny, unconventional, poor, good, miserable, annoying, well shot, poorly lit, drama, sensibility, moronic, well-paced, poorly executed mess of a joy to watch.

    its a great departure from what characters normally are. they are all a bit cynical, each fighting some inner daemon. this show depicts the rare times when people do make the bad decisions, when someone does something just because... this show exposes human behavior when we pride our ignorance. at our worst. I guess this was also very cerebral.

    I enjoyed both seasons

    Brilliantly filmed. Both an escape and journey out of the ordinary into the exotic.

    I am no critic. 30 Degrees in February fills voids inside you didn't realize you had. Complex characters, woven together by means this writer deserves accolades for. Unpredictable, enlightening, brave in its context. Subtlety in its characters driving a more emotional response in its audience. Thailand is filmed and gifted to us in a true experience. Engaging, thought provoking, always a new twist, turn to keep you wondering. An eye opener for those who live vicariously. The filmography, leaves me pleading to see more, learn more about this culture. Never mind he subtitles, these ensure your attention will not stray from the fast moving plots, imaginative and realistic characters and situations. Thank you for delivering such a warm and needed film for those living in 30 degrees in February.
