Glory Days – Season 1

Siri, an idealistic single mother, uproots her life from a hippie commune to the yuppie west side of Oslo, confronting the stark realities of the 1980s materialistic surge. As she fights to safeguard her two children from the encroaching tides of consumerism and conservatism, she is also on a personal crusade at her job at the public TV channel. Her mission: to preserve the integrity of the state broadcasters, now threatened by the allure of “cheap American entertainment”.

Glory Days is a captivating comedy series that explores family, friendship and identity during a pivotal decade. Set against the backdrop of Norway’s cultural awakening, the series presents a heartfelt narrative of a socialist family navigating the turbulent waters of 1980s capitalism. The series poses a universal question: in the face of relentless change, can the bonds of family withstand the test of time?

Glory Days is based on the Norwegian bestselling novel Da He-Man kom til Norge (When He-Man Came to Norway) by Ole-Martin Ihle.

Season 2 coming in Autumn 2025!
