Brothers Bert and Holger are going to sell their parental home as they are both in need of money. Bert's plan is to take the entire sum himself and leave his brother without. Holger's wife, Stina, begins to suspect that something is up, but since Bert has a hold on her, it will be difficult to stop him. While the house has been empty, the neighbors, Våge and his daughter Wilma, have been taking care of the house. And since Våge and Wilma are a bit broke, they have simply sold their house and moved in there, without informing the brothers about this. Bert has brought in a realtor, Jarl, who obeys his every whim. The problem is that Jarl has forgotten the contract, so now his assistant comes there with it, the assistant is also Jarl's twin brother Henry. Now it becomes difficult to know who to trust. To top it all off, the village postman, everyone's dear Dag-Otto Flink, ends up in the middle of the house sale. With him he brings the newly moved Florence who has her own agenda.

Strindberg was bold! In 1887, he dared to describe a priest who both drank and swore. He dared to portray a lovesick woman like Madam Flod and a calculating, lecherous Carlsson. He showed that farmhands had a sense of humor and pined for the maids, and he ridiculed the authorities. Strindberg was bold! So bold that Bonniers publishing house rejected several scenes because they were so bold. That is why we do not believe that Strindberg would disapprove of our ideas for his script. Here we will "mess around" with it thoroughly, in his spirit. In other words, you will get an adaptation that is VERY loosely based on Strindberg. Madam Flod will be lovesick, and Carlsson will be senile. The farmhands will have tons of funny lines, the maids will scream at the top of their lungs when the farmhands want to flirt, and the pastor won't be sober for many minutes. And the ending? No, we won't let anyone die here. These are new times! Strindberg was bold. Bold—so are we! Cheers, Strindberg!

Bosse, a kind-hearted, naive burglar, is looking for a valuable statue owned by the rich but unexciting couple Berit and Evald. The thief encounters a patrol when Jerker unexpectedly shows up. He is a committed and inquisitive insurance man who has been called in by Evald to value the statue. This complicates things, of course. It doesn't make matters any better when the curious, newly moved-in pensioner couple Adam and Eva Persson run in and out of the house while waiting for their furniture to arrive, which of course creates maximum confusion.

The year is 1955. A valuable painting has been stolen and Dagmar is in hospital. Things are certainly not starting well for Våge this summer. Pensionat Solhöjden is fully booked and now one of the guests is suspected of having stolen a priceless treasure from the host couple. The only question now is who? Could it be Count Hökenhjelm? Because he is surely hiding something. Or his wife, the Countess? Incidentally, she seems to have something in common with Ludvig, the tramp who is going to chop up the woodpile and is temporarily living in the barn. Ester also lives at the guesthouse, who not only eats nettles but seems to have something else lurking in her binoculars. Norwegian Grete is back as the housekeeper at the guesthouse, but what has she done? And why is Inspector Grip so incredibly happy to see her. Calm down, just calm down. Everything will be alright with Dag-Otto's help...or will it?

The year is 1926 and Valter Liljefors has passed away. Valter's daughter Rut is very disappointed when she realizes that there is no money to inherit. The only thing of value is the house, and her mother Elsa lives there. However, the will states that if Elsa remarries, the house will go to Rut, who immediately begins looking for a suitable candidate. The plot also includes a shady priest, a sluggish valet, Götaland's most annoying brat, a naive stepsister, an unknown man and a refreshed Danish couplet singer.

It is summer in the early 1930s, and two brothers, Erik and Johan, have inherited their family's property, consisting of two houses on the banks of the Ätran River in Falkenberg. Erik, who runs a trading and import business, lives in the nicer of the two houses. Erik is married to the distinguished Mrs. Aurore. The household also includes Aurore's niece Maj-Britt and the maid Malin. Malin is constantly in love and is currently being courted by police officer Karlsson and postman Dag-Otto. Johan, a bricklayer, lives in the smaller cottage. He is married to Hanna, and their son Albin is studying to become an engineer. The differences between the two brothers often lead to discord between them, and when Albin and Maj-Britt fall in love, no one is pleased.

The brothers Ingemar and Gustav are enemies and have split the business in two. Gustav runs a chainsaw repair shop and Ingemar still runs his motel business and has hired the impossible carpenter Lufsen and Virena. Ingemar has now organized a singles party, but it all seems to be going down the drain as there are only two people registered, mother and son Bengtsson, but are they really mother and son? Is the "hungry pensioner" Hans-Rutger Vällingstråhle really just looking for lunch, or is he also looking for a woman?

When the quirky and inventive Åsa-Nisse and his friend Klabbarparn have their guns confiscated by the county treasurer after a poaching incident, Åsa-Nisse decides to invent a time machine and travel 70 days forward in time to retrieve their weapons.
