Klovn is a Danish sitcom, which first aired on the Danish TV channel TV2 Zulu. It focuses on the life of the main character Frank and Casper. The show builds its comedy around quiet everyday situations, social awkwardness, uncomfortable silences and general faux pas. Klovn usually gets compared to the American sitcom Curb Your Enthusiasm by Larry David. It’s also shot handheld, in a pseudo-realistic style. Some have also mistakenly compared the theme to Curb Your Enthusiasm’s, despite it being a direct reference to Jacques Tati’s Mr. Hulot movies. The poster for the first film can be seen in Casper and Frank’s offices throughout the series. Klovn initially ran 6 seasons on TV2 Zulu from 2005-2009 and was renewed with an additional 3 seasons that aired from 2018-2022.

When we wrote 'Nu Som Mennesker', we wanted to try something new. We wanted to invest ourselves in the material in a different way. And develop the stand-up form. We think we succeeded a fair bit along the way. But that kind of thing is a commitment. There's no point in us just making an ordinary filming of the show when we're going to make a DVD. We have to take things the rest of the way. Because if we don't do that, who will? That's why the version of 'Nu Som Mennesker' you're now sitting with is somewhat different to the show we toured with in 2011/2012, although of course it still forms the core. We've played around with the material, added a lot of new things, moved some of the show out into reality, made a music video, let Jørgen Leth tell the story, and anything else we thought would take the show to a new place that fits the format. You have been warned!

Best buddies Christian Ulmen and Fahri Yardim can't help to embarrass themselves from time to time. The troublemakers they are they love to test the limits of ethics and political correctness.
