Under the headline “The TV virus can break Sweden,” Larsson writes that the risk is imminent and that the plague is fast approaching.

Believe that hope is waning

He is based on sources in Norway, sources who he claims spend Saturday night watching a moose dance with “Right Said Fred”, and are frustrated when “the VG critic rolls six dice for the Troll” and just a “scandalous five” for him. He mentioned the moose.

(Red.anm.: VG hasn’t shot six on “Maskorama”, however Dagbladet has.)

«When the virus is in the box, neither infection detection nor quarantine helps»Read more in Larsson’s comment.

That said, the Swede certainly believes that “Maskorama” will also be successful in his own country.

– I suspect that this mix of “Muppet Show” and “Idol” could be big in Sweden, Larsson tells VG.

– Both Sweden and Norway like silly children’s entertainment. Just look at the Melodifestivalen and Eurovision. Also, I think our taste has become even more damaged after Covid, he adds.

NRK: – Enjoy

NRK project editor Jan Erik Ådland tells VG that Swedes can only rejoice.

– They have all the prerequisites to be successful with “Maskorama”. We’ve known long before that this concept isn’t necessarily a favorite among critics and commentators, but it shouldn’t surprise me if it hits in Sweden as well, he says.

Norway is not the only one hooked. “Maskorama” has been a hit around the world for a long time. The concept is originally Korean, but several countries have created their own variants, including the United States with “The Masked Singer.”
