"Johnny's" back to corrupt the locals, and if you liked last season, there's no apparent reason not to go along for this ride.

Wall Street Journal by Dorothy Rabinowitz
Only one thing is certain now--the season that begins Friday has a lot to live up to.

Philadelphia Daily News by Ellen Gray
I wouldn't say Lilyhammer is worth signing up for Netflix to see, but if you're already paying for it and you like Van Zandt--and Norwegian knits--it's certainly worth a look.

Los Angeles Times by Robert Lloyd
The Norwegians are the foreigners here, and Norway the foreign land. But that remoteness is part of the show's appeal.

Lilyhammer splits the difference between lightness and the dark. [17 Feb 2012, p.63]

The Hollywood Reporter by Tim Goodman
Lilyhammer is an odd little series with potential.

It tries to combine elements of American mob stories and Scandinavian mysteries, seasoned with frequent overt references to "The Sopranos," but the mixture is pretty flat in the first episode.
