Pyrus: Alletiders Nisse

Hvor svært kan det være (trans. How Bad Can It Be?) is a Danish sitcom, a remake of the 2000 Norwegian series Ca. Lykkelig, which may be an international iteration of the popular American sitcom Friends. Three thirtysomething couples live in the same Danish apartment building and are all in the process of starting a family and getting married.

Christian is a nice man climbing the career ladder. His brother Mikael, on the other hand, is a petty criminal who hustles his way through life as best he can. When Mikael dies, Christian feels responsible and, in order to get to know his deceased brother better, he seeks out the underworld Mikael belonged to. He should never have done that.

Sømanden Otto (Brandenburg) har bugseret sit gode skib ”Julia” ind i Skilteskoven. Her nyder han freden og roen, alene med sin trofaste følgesvend, papegøjen Bounty (Søren Thorup), og ugentligt besøg af Landhandelens Karen-Marie (Karin Jagd), indtil borgmesterens datter ”Henry” (Amalie Ihle Alstrup) farer vild, og søger nattely på skibet… Duftforhandleren Viggo Velva (Axel Strøbye) har dog ikke tænkt sig, at Otto skal blive i granskoven. Han forsøger, på alle (lovlige og ulovlige) måder, at overtage skoven, for at kunne brænde den ned, så han kan bruge duften af afbrændt gran til sit nyeste projekt ”Jul på Dåse”. I bunden af skibet ”Julia”, det sted Otto kalder Sumpen, bor de tre nisser; Kogle, Multe og Stub (LINIE 3). De gør alt hvad der står i deres magt for at hjælpe Otto, Henry og Karen-Marie mod Velvas miljøfjendske planer. Og det bliver ikke lettere, da Velvas nevø, popsangeren Willy Vox (Tommy Kenter), dukker op…

The renowned professor of child psychology, Onkel Erik, gets the opportunity to test his theories about free upbringing and family coexistence in North Jutland, where with the help of his sister's five children he will open a family team building center for families with children in crisis.

There are strong forces around the luxurious golf resort next door that are opposing Onkel's plans to open the centre.

The elf population is declining, and there are already several homes that will be without elves this Christmas. Things can't move fast enough—we need more elves! But how do we get them?

Pyrus, Kandis, and Gyldengrød are joined by Fix and Fumle, and together they set about establishing an elf school in the National Archives.
