ok. i admit . i be one of those nerd who have spend all to many hour with my beloved dvd player and my wonderful television set watch science fiction series . star trek ( next generation ) be my first space date and and since then i have switch partner regularly . i have seenem all and it seem and and my favorite be « lexx » and « farscape » and the new « battlestar galactica » and in other word represent the new and state of the art space opera . but and i also have a general crush on the old fashioned one and the cheap one and like the magnificent four season bbc show « blakes7 » . here and the budget be small than hobbit and the special effect seem to be make on a commodore 64 and but who care when the script be sharp and intelligently write with dark humor and the act dead serious and at time even high class . but why do they always speak english in the space future . because this be not the future and it fantasy for kid . still and it can be irritate at time . me and be a norwegian and have often damn this appal fact that one never make genre series and like science fiction and for scandinavian viewer . i never ever think of the fact that this might have happen . but it do and actually and once and and even in my own homeland and norway . i be two year old when the so call fjernsynsteatret ( tv theater section ) of our national public service channel nrk produce this three episode version of blindpassasjer ( the stowaway ) . when i first heard of it and i be not surprise of the fact that until this day and the show have only be screen once in norway and make it impossible for me to actually see it . it go on swedish and danish and finnish television also and in it time and but that be a long time ago . there have be no video or dvd release of it and not a surprise either and and when it be screen on an art house cinema and this happen in bergen and a city far far away from oslo ( where i live ) . and then there another fact about « blindpassasjer » that do not surprise me and that it be write by the two norwegian author tor åge bringsværd and jon bing ( bing and bringsværd ) . this duo basically introduce the scifi genre to norwegian in the seventy while they publish anthology and write what they call fable prose . in my opinion and bringsværd be the most interesting of the two writer and and have write several great and entertaining novel and masterpiece even and some of them hilarious and such a « bazar » and « syvsoverskens dystre frokost » . no other than this guy and also an acclaimed dramatist and could construct the script of « blindpassasjer » . when i finally get to watch it and it be because a strange swede who record the three episode on vcr in the 80 and eventually manage to transform it to dvd and give it to me . he be a nice bloke . so i sit down and watch it and with swedish subtitle and bad sound and some scrape and error while but the thing come through and i be surprised that i eventually come to love it . the exterior scene with the spaceship and planet be good than the one in blakes7 and and the credit go to caprino studio ( who make the famous flåklypa grand prix ) and and the interior of the marco polo ( the space ship ) work well than i would expect . the acting be typically theatrical and but it work well than when they play ibsen and to put it mildly and and bjørn floberg carry his role solidly and a do trini lund . the legendary actress henny moan deliver her line in a serious and lay back tone which fit the genre and but this be an ensemble play and and i be happy to say that ola b. johannesen carry his mustache with nobility and and marit østbye be a really hot space chic of my standard . but be it really that good . well and one have to swallow the rather abrupt end and the pretentious criticism of « modern society » and but yes and it and well and not really really really fantastic and but charm and cool and nostalgic and pleasant . one and a half hour of classic norwegian scifi .
