''Welcome to Sweden'' is a Swedish sitcom by comedian Greg Poehler, about an American accountant who quits his job to move with his girlfriend to her native country of Sweden. It premiered on TV4 on March 21, 2014.〔 The series is based on Poehler's own experiences as a former intellectual property lawyer from the United States who moved with his girlfriend to her native country of Sweden in 2006. An international production featuring both Swedish and American talent, themes, and dialogue, it is the first English-language production by TV4. The series also aired in the United States on NBC. On July 28, 2015, due to what Poehler described as "craptastically" low ratings, NBC cancelled the show, further stating that production was "officially done". == Cast == Family *Greg Poehler as Bruce Evans, a generally easy-going and open-minded person, liberal by American standards in rebellion against his conservative upbringing, who experiences culture shock with his new life in Sweden *Josephine Bornebusch as Emma Wiik, a kind and caring, sharp-tongued, no-nonsense, independent-minded woman who helps Bruce as he adjusts to his new life, and tries to convince her family and friends that Bruce is the right man for her to settle down with *Lena Olin as Viveka Börjesson, Emma's warm but strong-willed and opinionated mother, who does not think that Bruce is the best man for her daughter *Claes Månsson as Birger Wiik, Emma's mild-mannered father, a retired sea captain *Christopher Wagelin as Gustav Wiik, Emma's blustery younger brother, a thirty-year old freeloader who frequently resorts to ill-advised shortcuts and schemes to avoid hard work *Per Svensson as Bengt Wiik, Birger's younger brother, who works at a video rental store, and is an obsessive fan of popular American movies *Illeana Douglas as Nancy Evans, Bruce's mother, and the housewife of Wayne Evans *Patrick Duffy as Wayne Evans, Bruce's father, a small-town Midwestern American man, who sees Bruce's new life in Sweden as strange against Wayne's conservative Christian worldview Other characters *Amy Poehler as Amy Poehler, a spoiled, self-involved, profligate American celebrity *Aubrey Plaza as Aubrey Plaza, a meddling, mischievous former client of Bruce's who is strangely minded to insinuate herself into Bruce's personal life *Magnus Mark as Olof, Emma's boss *Claes Ljungmark as Hans, CEO of the bank where Emma works *Basim Sabah Albasim as Hassan, an Iraqi immigrant displaced by the Iraq War *Jennie Silfverhjelm as Sofia, Emma's friend and colleague *Henrik Johansson as Karl, Sofia's boyfriend *Rachel Mohlin as Cecilia *Kodjo Akolor as Chuck Reed, a fun black guy in Stockholm who works as a personal trainer *Madeleine Martin as a clerk at the café that Bruce frequents *Marques Ray as "Pepe", an assistant who works at Amy Poehler's office 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Welcome to Sweden (2014 TV series)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
