Andrew Male The Times (UK) 07/08/2022
Funny, sad, erotic and transgressive, this is the workplace comedy as reimagined by Luis Buñuel and just as constantly surprising and thrilling as that suggests. Go to Full Review
Debi Enker The Age (Australia) 01/13/2021
4/5
Love & Anarchy can be laugh-out-loud funny, sexy and sad. Although the final episode suggests that Langseth didn't quite know how to end the story, for the most part it's an enjoyable and unusual ride. Go to Full Review
John Doyle Globe and Mail 11/18/2020
The series operates as a light romantic comedy but with a refreshingly frank and possibly very Swedish approach to sex. It is also as funny as it is ribald. Go to Full Review
Lynden Barber Limelight 01/09/2021
The results go from absurdist fun to calamity as their japes' unintentionally spin out of control, giving the final episodes an unexpected sting. Go to Full Review

Lana t @RT48857590 01/03/2025 Absolutely adored this one! It's clever, lighthearted, hot, fun, emotional... There's a lot of tension between the main characters. Very realistic and relatable on one hand, but bold, reckless, and uninhibited on the other. A compelling story. Best watched in Swedish with closed captions as the English voice-over doesn't do it justice. See more Remi B @RT80250094 03/17/2023 This show is so much fun and has also helped me a lot in learning Swedish. I love the chemistry between Max and Sofie and can't wait to see where it goes in season 2.
