Reaction To Grotesco - Learn English 

This is how english was taught in swedish schools, overarticulated sentences in dialogues between 2-3 fictitious characters. And it was always about checking into hotels, booking appointments and buying clothes. "Excuse me, I would like to buy a cardigan, how much do they cost?" "Hello. I would like to order a fish and chips please. And also, I would like a glass of water." And always in the Queen's english, we got reprimanded if we spoke with an american accent, which was ironic because after a wave of Faulty Towers, Benny Hill and Emmerdale, it was mostly american produced entertainment..."on the telly" 😄

Its so fun to see someone that is not Swedish comment on grotesko.

This is similar to some shows that was shown in school during language classes. I especially remember the one with "el perro esta en el orno" in spanish class (i think there was frensh, german and English versions too). I don't remember any clips like that being shown on tv though.

Yes. Parody of Swedish School-TV

Omg, I've literally been looking for this clip for years!! 🤩

Grotesco's Arbetarfiket is another good one

I think it's a Parody of the TV show: Start. It was an english course back in the seventies, I actually remember it....Haha! 🍻

When I grew up Hipp Hipp was a poplar comedy series, but also if you like dark humour "Poesi för fiskar" posted clips on youtube back in the day. It is very amusing watching you react to the comedy, keep up the good work! 😄🙌

Swedish Comedy is the best in Sweden, we love what we call skadeglädje. Skadeglädje = rejoicing at or deriving pleasure from the misfortunes of others. malicious enjoyment derived from observing someone else's misfortune. that is why is funny in Sweden.

NO, I am not getting into the van BEFORE I see the candy! I am not stupid!

I've been waiting yeears to see someone outside of Sweden react to this xD love your stuff man!

love this series! completely forgot about most of these videos

Well, I remember (I'm 60?) a man on the television - I believe in the 60's, a Mr Gotobedpierce, he taught English in a similar way. The reason I remember him so well is because he had very protruding ears 🤣

Dorsin is a master in this show.They are all good, but he fucking nails the comedy.

The comedy show Hipp Hipp from Sweden also have funny "learn-english" segments😂

Holy shit I haven't seen this😂😅

Well that kind of dark humor fits well with the name Grotesco. Its both funny and hurts at the same time

I knew you would ennjoy this one!

Brilliance!! 😍

It's funny you mentioning sounding like a robot. When I was in Secondary School here in the West of Scotland in the 80's, there was an audio French programme for the bottom 2 sets in 2nd year called L'Eclaire and they had a robot called Poomf teaching French phrases in a robotic voice. I can't remember how I heard it as I was doing O'Grade French. It might have been my dad who let me hear it as he was a French teacher in another town. Literally pish yerself.

A joooooke

Yeah I watched educational language shows like this on Swedish TV as a kid in the 80's before I was old enough for school. They were very goofy. Didn't understand a word of it of course but we only had 2 channels and one of them didn't have any programs during the day so not much of a choice.

I would love a, De Arbetslösa, reaction

Grotesco is great fun!

I remember watching Kreml High in school but I can't understand why or on what subject that could have been.

OMG this is so bad I cant help cracking up all the time

Still waiting for you to react to Robert Gustafsson at royal Albert hall!😅🤩

In my youth we hand Mr Gotobed in films to teach us english, but his ears stuck out from his head in an angel of 90 degree so we only learned not to laugh out loud, no english oh wait i do remeber: Mr Brown smooked a cigarr before bed.

It’s also funny because it exaggerates the Swedish naivety.😱😇🙏

Funniest is Swedish for newcomers ,from eleven different nationalities and the teacher is from heaven knows

This is A VIDEO

You should do a video where you only react to Swedish rap!

😹😹

Old Swedes are grown up with Monty Python, Fawlty Towers and Benny Hill, so what did you expect?

Watch Grotesco they will never stop the dance

The best one is Ett Kilo Mjölk

You should watch "Islamist vs Racist" by Viktor klemming. Hilarious social commentary skit in swedish!

There is one for how to speak swedish

Reminds me of Hipp Hipp, another Swedish comedy show. They also had lessons but they tried to teach English people Swedish. Very funny.

Well AckScHuAlLy: read upon the real human trafficking problem in Sweden, with the overpopulation of migrant men and the imported human trafficking. That's how dark this skit went - a travesty. An imported tragedy.

How to spell "beveridges"?

You shold watch" peters politicaly correct spech about equal rights" by Viktor Klemming

I can recommend a few funny Swedish tv shows, you should react to Tiffany person (tv show called hipp hipp!), Hey Baberiba (especially the Swedish royal family parts), Leif & Billy (two brothers living in northern Sweden with problems all day long, basically), Bert (older Swedish tv show), Byhåla (tv show from the 90’s with two friends called Ronny and ragge), dom kallar oss tratten och finkel (two friends without money living together in misery, basically), Full frys (tv show from 1998 with comedians stefan and Krister), hem till Midgård, Morran och Tobias (mother and son living in misery), Varantv (reminds of grotesco but from the 90’s). 😊

not funny
