Have the best line in the series so far!

An OK ending of season 2 with the best line I've seen in a TV show about/around Norway so far where a visiting mafioso try to read a Norwegian newspaper and mention " ..there is a picture of a... Norwegian fruitcake.." and Frankie replies: "Be careful, that's the entire Royal family!" Absolutely hilarious and spot on! (The humor in it might just be accessible to Scandinavians like me.. hehe)

Grreat show so far!

Lilyhammer is actually quite brilliant

Warning: Spoilers
As a lover of the Sopranos, this episode is by far the best one yet. The return of Paulie Gualtieri (as a priest) and other (direct) references to the Sopranos made Lilyhammer for me the best TV series at this moment.

Also being a fan of Scandinavia (Norway in particular) and the "clumsiness" of small village people made me laugh more then once. Probably I miss a lot of suggestive links to Norwegian series/folklore, but it amuses nonetheless.

I also like the reference to some other movies (such as those of Guy Ritchie; LSATSB). Even the camera recordings make the reference in specific scenes. The makers of this show have done a really really good job here. Far better then all the other "hollow" series.

The best Lilyhammer episode

An amazing way to wrap up Season 2 of a great show! This one really has it all and is a laugh-out-loud fun time from start to finish.

Sopranos fans are guaranteed to love it, with numerous surprises and nods to that wonderful former show of Van Zandt's.

'Ghosts' also perfectly showcases the blending (and clashing) of Norwegian and American cultures .

There are quite a few amazing lines and scenes in this one and it all ends up rather satisfying. Fantastic. 10/10.
