Norwegian commercials are some of the funniest and most creative advertising I have ever seen. The commercials tend to be so much more interesting than the ones shown in America. That is why I am very excited to react to this Norwegian Commercial Compilation Part 2. If you enjoyed the video feel free to leave a comment, like, or subscribe for more!
A lot of commercials here are satirical, often poking fun at things that is impossible to understand if you don't have the reference. Some are actually meant to be cheesy and silly. We vote for the commercial of the year in Norway. The winner is always creative, and either funny or tugging at our heartstrings.
the smart home commercials that showed up a few years ago were funny
I loved when the lotto comercial won Gullfisken a few years ago
Wait I did not know we did this, how do I vote?
im not surprised this dude didnt get most of the commercials. he is after all american and as we all know they are not the brightest. intelligent humour is not for everyone ....
@@ole9071 Watch Gullfisken TV2 once a year. You can vote for the nominees during the show. Quite entertaining!
please do the " rich but equal" that was suggested after this video! it is super good and gives a very good insight into Norwegian culture.
Alot of different commercials have serveral parts, not only Jarlsberg.
There is a phone provider (Telenor) that has had a commercial with the same people over serveral jears
Have you seen/watched Ylvis? Tha song "What does the fox say" reached USA... I am recommending: "The cabin" song :-)
I believe that the Kims commercial was a message for their arch enemy (Maarud) when Maarud tried to take patent on the norwegian word (potetgull/potato gold)
Kims won in the court in late 2016 and get to use the word.
Yes , but theres also a more suttle political point here.
Early in his presidency Thrump was braging on and on to the media about the "love Letter" he had gotten from " Kim" Jung-Un.
(Incidently its one of the letters that the national archive is now looking for in theyr investigations,, they still dont know where it is.. and it is United States National Arhives property. Not Thrums personal "love-letter")
Potetgull is a brand name, so only TM not Copyright
Never thought of that. You might very well be right.
Plus the fact, that every time you opens a bag of crisps - Kim’s in this case - you get a lot of new friends. All want to taste some.
I think its because «Kims» moto/ quote is «more of the good»
Multiple parts and storyline commercials are pretty common. There was a period when people were looking forward to seeing what would happen next in the Telenor commercials. The storyline in those lasted for years!
Kart og kombass🤣
Yeah the Telenor-ad story-line has been going on for what, a decade?
@@sundhaug92 since 2015😫🥹
Here in Sweden it's the ICA supermarket commercials. Been going on since 2001😂 but they're not as good as they used to be
I’m pretty sure it’s still going strong. Arnfinn’s got himself a whole family now.
Jarlsberg is actually one of the most popular foreign cheeses in the US. So popular that it is licensed out and produced in Ohio.
I have gotten Jarlsberg at random markets in NewYork, Miami (all over Florida) San Francisco and to my dispair always cheaper than back home, actually close to the price in Sweden. Looked into it a bit and the export rebate is close ti 70%! so that shippingcosts do not make the final salesprice too ridiculous🥲
I bought the Jarlsberg at Walmart back in 2010. Didn't expect to find it in the US at all. Back then at least it was cheaper at Walmart than Norway.
Of course it's an Ohio cheese
@@Gard No, it’s a Norwegian cheese, made in Ohio on Norwegian licence. ☺️
Nah cheese in Ohio fr 💀💀💀
Check out the Kondomeriet commercials (Norwegian sex toy shop) They are really pushing it :D
You actually have Jarlsberg in USA. They are really good, buy them at Sams for good deals
but it! Its great :D
yea we exported most of the jarlsberg made in norway to the usa because you guys seem to like it so much that eventually we had to make an entire factory in the usa instead to make it locally lmao
A sensible woman would say: "If you want Jarlsberg", do the shopping yourself". But....it is funny! 😀
Are you implying there are "sensible women" in the world?
A sensible woman would be able to read that it says "Jarlsberg" and not "cheese".
He wouldn't written "cheese" if he just wanted "some cheese", but he wanted Jarlsberg.
Imagine if a woman wrote "milk" and man comes back with water, "liquid is liquid", he'd be made fun of and she'd probably trash talk him to her friends.
You should react to the new norwegian Netflix movie trailer Troll!
I watched it last night. It was bizarre😂.
Yes, And "Trolljegeren" from 2010 with Otto Jespersen, and exelent and funny mockumentary about Trolls.
Yeah, a lot of this is considered cheesy over here as well, but we like cheesy. (As long as it's Jarlsberg)
Norvegia (a cheese) for life.
In Norway, everything is allowed as long as you don't offend others. We don't have PIIIP if someone says something bad on TV. The country is not ruled by religions - just the idea that you should be fair to others no matter what. Violation of skin colour, gender or sex is not acceptable. Criticism of religion is permitted
I was expecting that expression when Trump and Kim came into the frame, hilarious.
Norwegian commercials are all about originality and grabbing your attention. It's not so much what's said, but how it's said. And brands over here want to push messages about their brand's ethics and morality.
unlike those from the usa ....
You could also react to «When Harry Met Santa», its another commercial from Norway. It went a tiny bit viral last christmas.
You do have wheels of cheese like that in the US, exactly like that, in fact (imported from Norway)! I’ve seen Jarlsberg pretty much in every large supermarket I’ve been in in the US… ☺️🤗 💓🎄💓🎄💓
Stratos is similar to Aero. But much better, of course. Someone really should send you a care package so you can see for yourself.
Thank for pointing out what we all know over here,and your right
Were ALL very very Weird
Love #🇧🇻 Sylvia Norway 🇧🇻
A lot of commercials here have an ongoing theme, going for years even.
That blir cow is the Stratos mascot.
You should react to Norwegian Christmas commercials next. 😁
you should react to sånn er norge rik og lik
it was in your recommended when you where done with the video 💪
Now that it’s December, maybe look at some Norwegian advent calendars?
I haven't seen any of these before, but then I have for decades used my computer to skip all commercials.
Nothing gets through. Be it on youtube, the news, facebook or TV.
Kims was satiricol on both as mentiond abouve the chips battle and also the situation around the world at that point lol
By the way the commercial price is called gullfisken or the goldfish
As a Norwegian this brings back so many funny memories xD I aboslutely love these commercials! ^^ Glad you like them too! Also, for the Kims commercial... kims use "ingen kims ingen kos" alot that means "no kims no cozy time" the reason for making them all be friends I suppose xD
keep reacting to norwegian stuff!! i love this reaction :D
When the Kim's commercial came out, Trump hadn't been in office for long, bud he had made the "little rocket man" taunt about Kim Jong Un. We didn't expect them to appear as chummy as they did later.
The ones making the milk commercial doesn't seem to know that black is not a color.
Black is the absence of color.
While white contains all colors there is.
The "western" commerical is actually for a large Scandinavian webshop chain that sells computer hardware (and a whole lot of other stuff as well). And it's also a reference to the movie "Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid".
We don't have as many ad breaks (in Sweden but I'm pretty sure it's the same in Norway) as the US, so they need to be memorable. That's my guess at least. My fave are the Swedish Gevalia (coffee) commercials. They're amazing and they're STILL going with the same pattern as they did 20 years ago. I love it. There's even a compilation on YT I believe.
Gevalia has run the "When you have unexpected company" ads since 1985... for 37 years! The first commercial with the same slogan came in 1991, 31 years ago.
I haven't found any compilation though, but here is a bunch of these videos:
"Gevalia - Oväntat besök (Tyngdlyftaren, 1991)"
"Gevalia - Oväntat besök (Väggen, 1992)"
"Gevalia - Oväntat besök (Dykaren, 1992)"
"Gevalia - Oväntat besök (Piloten, 1995)"
"Gevalia - Oväntat besök (Badkar, 1996)"
" Gevalia - Oväntat besök (Tvillingarna, 1996)"
"Gevalia - Oväntat besök (Bungy Jump, 1995)"
"Gevalia - Oväntat besök (2017)"
"Gevalia - Oväntat besök (Himlen, 2003)"
"Gevalia - Oväntat besök (Mountainbikern, 2022)"
@@Asa...S That is amazing. I didn't know that. Their commercial theme is just a few years older than I am lol
@@Asa...S You did not succeed in sharing a list of links, it’s just text. Did you use the «share» feature and copy the video links? 🤗
@@lottatroublemaker6130 No, sometimes RUclips blocks the comment, or it ends up in the trash filter if you post links, so I think it's better to just post the titles. Then anyone who's interested can just copy and paste the titles into the search field, without having to click on links.
The Kims commercials like to have fun with the fact that their brand name is basically the same as the dictator.
"Making big deal out of cheese" Dude, there is cheese and then there is Jarlsberg. But you don't have actual real cheese at all in the US, so I understand the confusion ;)
From what I've heard you don't have ANY real cheese in the US 😅
They have spray chees at least, but It contains twice the amount of salt that normal cheese does and chemicals that should not be consumed by any living person
Honestly i can only cringe when an ad pops up dude
Feil ost feil hund
Ost er ost og hund er hund
12:33 "Mer av det gode" is "More of the good" that's what the connection is to the commercial, it's good to be friends instead of enemies, and Kims is good, but it probably introduced a new flavor or two of Chips, so now it is also "More of the good."
12:53 In Norway you'll find that doing this kind of thing isn't uncommon, having several smaller commercials that are connected to each other like this one is, commercial makers love to do that sort of thing here.
I swear norwegains are a whole different breed from humans💀
Norwegians aren't necessarily bilingual, usually, Scandinavians have just studied English a lot in school. But elderly people don't always understand English or ads in other languages. It depends on your background as well. But I gotta say that I love the nordic humor, making fun of others and ourselves and not taking anything too seriously.
the kims brand makes very interesting ads, like one ad where an dude found a chips bag in an counter and sat down to eat it
just as he was about to put it in his mouth all of his "taste buds" started cheering and partying. seriously they make some weird but funny advertisements.
Costco actually used to import and sell Jarlsberg. (At least the ones I’ve been to in Canada and Mexico. Suppose maybe the US could be stricter with dairy-products?)
Regardless, if you get the opportunity, you should take a look! Because it’s true. Only Jarlsberg is Jarlsberg.
Please consider expanding your channel to cover all of scandinavia. This concept is hillarious when having an "outsider" looking at how weird we are. :D
The Jarlsberg cheese is the only dairy product that Norway is exporting, and it is famous around the world.
The "Whatever. A man is a man" commercial came in second winning the silver fish in the Gold Fish award in 2011.
The Gold trophy went to a norwegian bank ad featuring George Clooney. It was pretty boring.

The reason some commercials are weird like that, has a lot to do with something called "Gullfisken". It's an audience prize for best commercial of the year (by popular vote).
I am from Norway so is it any questions
The point of the Kims why can't we be friends ad, is that you should share your chips.
Im from Norway by the way 😁
😂😂love it😂😂 🇳🇴from Norway , Shared New friend
You should watch the telenor commercials, they’re like a series
I don't think it will show up in one of the compilations, but my favourite commercial has to be the NAF road assistance commercial with the family car getting stuck, some guys at the beach asks if they need help, they say yes, and cue the baywatch theme as it's revealed this is a nudist beach, lol
“Norway your weird”
Truer words were never spoke 🤣
- i say as a Norwegian 😁👌🏻
Watch meanwhile in norway. It is very funny
Order yourself some Jarlsberg. It's really good and quite mild. Great on pizza.
Also; Here's another milk chocolate commercial:
ruclips.net/video/3fQNwrTkltc/видео.html
5:11 No, it's more like "This is how it feels when your son/daughter/friend is in the middle of an online game and can't really come RIGHT now".
It's aimed at parents etc to understand that it's not JUST a game, you have obligations to the people you are playing with, and leaving friends in a sticky situation in the middle of a game.
Parents should give a heads up at least 30 minutes before dinner (Though I doubt it'll help much) and maybe instead of "It's dinner time now" ask "Are you ready for dinner now? If not it's ready in 5 minutes, finish up"
I love your videos. I wanted you to see my comment, so i am commenting before i see the video. I am from Stjlrdal, next to Hell, in Norway

The whole point of a commercial is to get people's attention and make it memorable. We get a lot of American ads cosmetics, hair dye and stuff, and they're so shiny and perfect, and they're all the same. I never remember the brand or the product from those. Let's face it: silly and immature is attention grabbing. Although we tend to call it "playful" in Norway.
Hi, I’m just a ‘nomal’
Norwegian person
watching a Norwegian yt
called ‘JonnieBoi’ and he
thinks you’re a Nice person :D
Why has never the USA grasped this concept? If you advertise product A. Why better than B, C and D? One version is to just do copy. Or you could make up a little (funny) movie about why. Guess which will stick?
All the videos is ads. I am from norway
Largest in the US The USA is still the area with the largest turnover of Jarlsberg® outside Norway. The cheese is sold in nine out of ten supermarkets. Norseland Inc. refines, markets and distributes Jarlsberg® and other specialty cheeses from TINE and other producers to the grocery and large household markets in the USA. They also have a branch in Canada. Jarlsberg® is also produced in the USA and sold on the American market. Some will also be exported from the USA to Australia.
the cheese he wanted is the worst kind in my opinion
best one is norvegia if youre norwegian and you don't agree then f*#k you man
The shootout (3:08) is a reference to westerns, but especially to the classic _Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid_ (1969). Butch and Sundance flee the US for Bolivia, where they revert to old habits and start robbing banks. In the end, they are cornered by the Bolivian army, and killed in a massive shootout.
You should warch the REMA 1000 commercials. Made by Trym. They are so funny.
You should watch the next video that popped up. "This is Norway" with Harald Eia. It's with English sub
I saw a wheel of Jarlsberg at walmart, on long island, when i visited in 2016. You definitely have both wheels and Jarlsberg.
Should watch the Kims commercial when Kim jung Ill died, they were singing "Now a new Kim's arrived and its time for Friday chill!"
The commercial at 4:00 seemes to be inspired by Butch and Cassedy with Paul Newman and Robert Redford.
Jarlsberg in "wheels" actually sells more in the US and outside Norway - we dont have Jarlsberg wheels at our stores, but i've seen it in US, and the series "king of queens" uses alot of Jarlsberg reference
You should watch Bergen exit. Good commercial from one of our biggest Newspapers
The Jarlsberg commercial actually spawned a saying in the language. "Ost er ost" = "Cheese is cheese".
Most of these are self explanatory and enjoyable, but your starting and stopping, trying to figure it out doesn't help and I just stopped watching.
In Norway the country is not ruled by religion rather the idea as long as you respect everyone... violation of how one looks, gender, sex, skin color are not exceptible but criticism to a religious is ok with respect.
We are peaceful quite private people.
Commercials have to be weird and funny/outrageous, because commercial breaks suck
Cant belive you didnt reconized the shoot out from Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid…….
Okay it's not Norwegian, but tjek this danish commercial: reklame for cykelhjelm, Rådet for større trafiksikkerhed (it's a commercial for wearing a helmet while riding a bike)
you should se the long going joke of Armfin bakslekten , from a mobiledata company its still going :)
I’m Norwegian the blue cow is the «maskot» of the chocolate “Stratos”
The Jarlsberg commercials are so funny! No other cheese that are commonly sold in every store comes close to Jarlsberg. Only Jarlsberg is Jarlsberg
Haven't seen that Kim's commercial, but made me really laught😂😂
Yes, this potato chips commercial did just animate Trump and Kim Jong Un kissing
There is a telephone commercial series that been going on for years. Starts with a young couple falling in love to now they parents.
Norvegia is so much better than Jarlsberg anyway 😂
In Norway we stopped asking about the commercials a long time ago….
Comment if you are a fellow NORWEGIAN! 👇
What about the Tran commercial with the submarine and fishing.
wow ive only seen the first part of that jarlsberg commercial i dident know they had all this extra parts lol i can see now i dont watch much tv lol
i thought the blue cow thing would be for a popular scandinavian dairy company called arla
You would watch the ICA commercial from Sweden.
you should watch the new norwegian movie called ‘troll’!!!
These commercials get to the point were the commercial isn’t even remotely related to the product it’s trying to advertise
Do NOT call my homeland wierd. Its the best place ever!
I've seen that brand of cheese here in Canada, but, have never tried it, now I definitely going to give it a taste...
I suppose one of the weirdest things concerning TV commercials in Norway, is that it is forbidden to air them on certain days (Christmas Day, Good Friday, Easter Sunday and Whit Sunday).
The second ad def looks like a Spaghetti western aka an Italian western film!
I want to send you some jarlsberg and stratos.. then maby you will understand the obsession
Why do some Americans seem to believe in "Gosh"? To me, it seems offensive!
Jarlsberg is imported in vast amounts into USA.
That commercials whit 4 parts it not even the worst, i think we have one whit over 20 parts.😂
now i think that americans are boring..... i have animated ads here in australia :I
I live in norway and for me those adˋs is totalt normal but not every ad is like that😅😊
