Reaction To Robert Gustafsson - Chlorine (Swedish Comedy)

[@EEmB]

When he says "Buuurns" with that voice, became a classical quote that we used for like 10-15 years after. All of us who was young in the 90s, for us this and the rest of the "Killinggänget" are classics

[@Kent.]

That's what makes Robert so funny, he does all his characters so well and they are all different. From the first time i saw him until now he never disappoint. This serie is from a place called Berns Salonger (Berns Salons) in Stockholm, beautiful building and interior built in 1863. The building was extended in 1886 with another salon at an angle to the original one, and at the same time the name was changed from Berns Salon to Berns Salons.

One of the best shows ever! This is what made Robert! The "Killinggänget" is incredible from "I manegen" via "Nile city" som many incredible sketches and characters!

[@springbay1]

In this scene Robert is acting with Henrik Schyffert. Henrik had previously worked with MTV in the UK. Returned to Sweden he created the "Killing gang" with a gang of up-and-coming comedians. This is from one of their first stage performances, called "I manegen med Glenn Killing" from around 1992 or so, where Glenn (Henrik) brought on guests with special talents. Kind of spoof of the segment where David Letterman had people on the show with special talents.

[@astral7080]

This performance among others in this liveshow is iconic in swedeish comedy

[@henkee3715]

This is a classic

[@ElisabethÅkerbergNilsson]

He is an educated actor!! You are right about both his mimic and plastic. He is an INCREDIBLE comedian!! 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 And he was/is a part of Killinggänget. They were REALLY inventive! Thank You for Your great reaction! 🙏🏻❤️ Happy New Year! 🎉

1:39 "De Lyckliga Kompisarna" DLK (The Happy Friends") it's a Swedish melodious punk band and the song "Hockeyfrilla" (frilla is slang for hairdo/haircut and hockeyfrilla (mullet) refers to the typical old school hockey player mullet) is one of their biggest songs and just fun/funny lyrics very of the time.

[@Theclosingact-livemusic]

"Hockeyfrilla" = mullet

[@Kent.]

In 1993-1994, Killinggänget (The Killing gang) did a pub show which was also televised which came to be called I manegen med Glenn Killing - Live from Berns. (In the area with Glenn Killing - Live from Berns) In it many of their most famous figures returned. The Killing gang consisted of. Tomas Alfredson Robert Gustafsson Jonas Inde Andres Lokko Martin Luuk Johan Rheborg Henrik Schyffert Walter Söderlund

[@phnome123]

They also did Nile City and Percy Tårar and a few other thing and was one of the most popular satire/irony-groups of the 1990's. I grew up with them (I'm that old) and I still love it and quote it from time to time-

[@Kent.]

@@phnome123 And Killinggänget also did the Torsk på Tallinn movie... It was great times and fun back then. No fkn PK people everywhere, you could joke about everything.

[@Nekotaku_TV]

"The Killing gang", Killing is a tame goat's kid, and in English it's called a kid apparently. So The kid gang, but because kid also is used for humans it would be better to translate it as The goat kid gang or The goat's kid gang. But then it's also a name so... I guess it can work.

[@Lindeman08]

I had this on VHS as a kid and watched it over and over again. Killingänget reshaped Swedish comedy in the 90's. If you can get your hands on this entire show 'I manegen med Glenn Killing - Live från Berns' or their cult series 'Nile City 105.6' with proper English subtitles I urge you in the strongest to react to it.

[@Lindeman08]

@Ihmrat That would be amazing. The English subtitles are the real crux. You can usually find a rip but not with proper English subs.

[@Lindeman08]

@@Ihmrat Absolutely. I have no idea how to do that but I would learn for this.

[@fredriklarsson9415]

The other guy is Henrik Schyffert. Those two was part of the comedy group Killinggänget (english translation: the kid gang) in the 90s. Kid is not children, it's kid like in baby goat. Cause Killing is the last name of Henrik Schyfferts character Glenn Killing.

[@Gh0stWater]

I know this show by heart, so much so that I know all of the weird laughs and screams from the audience

[@ElisabethÅkerbergNilsson]

Me too! 😊

[@martinfranzen9151]

It just got to my mind how much i appreciate all your Swedish videos and especially the comedy ones and i felt like sharing it with you so that you know your doing a good job and giving Happiness to others, atleast me but i think i can speak for more than me 🙏👏😁

[@kattahj]

I watched this over and over with my friends as a teen, it's a classic!

[@stefan_HEX]

True Classic from a proper swedish legend. I grew up to all his mad shit. This must be 1992.

[@Remrau]

I went to watch this one live, and man, I barely made it out alive due to the constant laughing. Killing Gänget is a staple for anyone with even a tad of humor as a Swede back in the 90's.

[@Mange4]

it's "i manegen med glenn killing".. =) classic from mid 90s.

[@wibjorn]

This is a stage version by the comedy group ”Killinggänget” of their series ”I manegen med Glenn Killing” from early/mid 90s. That show was HUGELY inspired by the British Tv comedy act Vic Reeves and Bob Mortimer, however as a comedy actor, Robert G outshines them all - he was already a growing star in Sweden. Killinggänget then moved on to more TV, and also film and theatre. Henrik Schyffert is mostly ”straight man” in these acts but nowadays he is an acclaimed Stand up comedian, you should check some clips of his shows.

[@Jullebulle1991]

This is from “I manegen med Glenn Killing - Live from Berns”. It’s from 1994. I have it on VHS as my dad recorded it from the TV. Glenn Killing (the host) is played by Henrik Schyffert. Berns is an old pub/nightclub/theater in Stockholm.

[@GuinevereKnight]

Robert is in his 30s here, It"s not a early clip, just earlier, he has been going a lomg time... Well known here already. A classic! 😂

[@spacemaker8760]

Yeah Robert started doing TV in the 80's and he did children shows.

[@holmeh]

Lol! Havent heard that laughter when he drink the chlorine before.

[@OnlyKaerius]

Another absolute classic of his is on "parlamentet"(the parliament), "från födelse till död"(from birth to death).

[@SaganJumJum]

The guy laughing in the crowd ♥ "Hockeyfrilla" means Mullet

[@wawwwa9542]

this is from the mid 90s This thing/show was called I manegen med Glenn Killing. the other guy is Henrik Shyffert Them and some other guys was kalled Killing-gänget They did Nilecity and so much more If you haven't seem the ones with the ferret, you have more to do. a little help.. ferret-iller

[@birger4788]

This is recorded at Berns, a very old and classy venue in central Stockholm. There were many acts like this, like a talent show, each one more absurd and funny than the other. I saw this live at Berns, and my glasses were wet one the inside from laughing so hard constantly. If you find more of these “talents” with English subtitles, most of them played by Robert, congrats!

[@Nekotaku_TV]

That got to have hurt haha. I remember this well.

[@Gothia123]

Why does the video format get distorted? As soon as you press play on the featured video the video format changes to double the original width, but the height stayes the same. Watching the KZbin web channel from an iMac.

[@bjornerikroth]

They guy on the large backdrop is TV host sv.wikipedia.org/wiki/Claes_Åkeson. He had nothing to do with the show but was just there as an ironic statement - Killinggänget loathed bland TV shows like the ones he hosted.

[@Joacim-A]

This could be from the TV show "i manegen med Glenn Killing" (in the Arena with Glenn Killing), where Robert had his breakthrough. The first season of that show was broadcast in 1992, but this is more likely from a later floor show they did after the success of that show.

[@fjalarhenriksson]

Grew up with his works i love all of it

[@spacemaker8760]

No thats not Robert G's early work. Robert started with doing childrens TV shows. Heres a clip from the show "Björnes Magazin " from 1988 with Robert in it. kzbin.info/www/bejne/rHzUhq2apNqhbpY

[@susannenymanback]

I havnt seen this. One in the public started some heeh heeh and it got me going 😂

[@riddick7082]

The show is called "I manegen med Glenn Killing". It is a Swedish TV series from 1992.

[@PetterLoke]

This is still so epic...🇸🇪

[@EvulOne42]

And because it's in Sweden, there's no need to inform the audience that you shouldn't drink chlorine. Also, 30 years later, tiktokers chew pods. Thank the gods, it's not because of these guys 😅

[@henkee3715]

This is at a place called Berns. They later made another classic called Nile City

[@Jack-Torrance80]

Robert is called swedens funniest man🎉

[@icesam931]

A classic

[@Tikkamezzala]

You should look up the stunning musical project Björnzone (with Björn Gustafsson) 😂

[@khalbahalofa]

But thats the OTHER Björn Gustavsson, a younger fella. (I haven’t actually seen it, so maby senior is in it too) Isn’t that ironic? 2 Björn Gustavssons that are comedians!!?

[@ollenilsson1264]

its a classic!

[@comafoify]

I was there, that night.

[@glennbengtson5379]

Robert Gustafsson is THE one and only, the best comedy performer in Sweden over all times, he have done so much and so many character, as far as i know only 1 that was directly bad, cant remember the name he lives with his mom in an house and they do various stupid things, but besides this show, id say all other is great.

[@Microsization]

Did you re-upload this?

[@susi_gron]

Have you heard about "Clark Olofsson" befor, he is from Sweden

[@KamiKaZantA]

"Hockeyfrilla" is the mullet hair style. And concerning their type of humor. The 90s was very anxious times in Sweden, it wasn't hip to talk or joke about anything with substance or serious subjects. The generation before stood up for everything during the 70s and 80s, so the young people (20s) in the early to mid 90s didn't take a political stance against anything to rebel against their very politically involved parents. So the humor got very absurd and off the wall, akin to Monty Python in that regard.

[@kjelledbom1728]

Im sure someone have already given an explonation of this show, but il make a short remark. These 2 guys have done tons of projects together and some of "imo" the best scetches from Swedish tv, and now u have seen quite a bit of it. Was a weird format u found though, they looked like 2 meters wide but at least u had english text.

[@SuperSupermanpunch]

Search for the entire show 'I manegen med Glenn Killing" the year is 1992

[@RUNE-66]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/hHLPaoKvfL6rhcksi=KkCo_tfJQDf578na This is him doing an impression of finnish people getting drunk. 😂

[@olaringstrom559]

Robert was THE funniest man i Sweden for many years. Also, unfortunately, way too over exploited so people grew tired of him. Nowadays his perfomances are more balanced and he his, with reason, considered a national treasure.

[@madeleinehalvarsson7485]

🤣❤️

[@EvulOne42]

This might perhaps make some reevaluate the Swedish NATO membership. "aww, hell no! Not the crazy Swedes!"😅

[@rickardlagrelius5555]

Swedish comedy troup ”Killinggänget”(Killing(name)gang) heavily influenced by British Reeves and Mortimer.

[@andreasberglund7454]

You should watch "The Apache Indian" from the same show :)

[@Hakan-mz6pd]

this is not his start, he did kids show in the 80s

[@spacemonkey377]

The host is Henrik Schyffert. You maybe recognize him from the band Whale and the song Hobo Humpin Slobo Babe that aired on MTV. I put a link to the song down bellow. kzbin.info/www/bejne/aKbTaKarbKiYg7c

[@CarlCassian80]

I manegen med Glenn shilling.😁

[@DetStoraMisstaget]

You have to check out SABATON Blood of Bannochburn. Hälsningar från Sweden.

[@mirabilis]

How the hell did he do that voice?

[@jimmyandersson5662]

Hockeyfrilla = Mullet

[@dsludge8217]

Now react to the song mentioned: Hockeyfrilla ("mullet") by De lyckliga kompisarna!

[@Peo_Sahlin]

The clip is out of ratio when played.

[@05Kretskortslaminat03]

He he he he he

[@vansting]

I think every Swede have seen this…

[@JimmySkane87]

Can you react to "vaken i 53 timmar Jonatan unge" really funny and dark stand up.

[@tinyderppotato5410]

I love killinggänget, they basically copied vic reeves big night out, both shows are very much "of their time" 🥰🥰

[@edvinsiewertson]

Fix the video/media dimensions!!

[@riddick7082]

Keep watching his early work and sketches. These days all his jokes are about three things and they are all three parts of the female body. He has become so effing boring and one-dimensional in the last 5-6 years. Try to find sketches or stage performances with him called "Mitt namn är Tony Rickardsson och jag är inte bitter", they are amazing. Today they are ten or fifteen years old.

[@Fredrik-gw9fj]

You should watch "Bertils julnötter" (Bertils juletips) and "påsknötter" (påsketips). It's Robert Gustafsson doing some skits for Norwegian TV. Unfortunately I don't think there's a translation of them into English AFAIK.

[@Cecilia-f9k]

To fully appreciate Bertil Svensson you need to know the back story of this character😊

[@peternystrom6632]

Why do you bother about swedish humour when you have MONTY PYTHON?! As a swede I cannot understand it.

[@ollenilsson1264]

jou should se him in jönssonligan

[@capcarrot6761]

Please react to swedish leif and billy -comedy

[@mikaelarvidsson9242]

stefan och krister are better

[@peartree8338]

.....to quote Killinggänget, only Stockholmare should write comedy. You know where you can stick your buskis-humor.
