Der Link oben führt zu einem aktuellen Sketch von US Saturday Night Live, der einen zeigt "Finnischer Einwanderervater" vom schwedischen Schauspieler Alexander Skarsgaard.
Anscheinend ist sogar das Berühren der Knie in der Sauna zu liebevoll.
Ist dieser Sketch für die Finnen anstößig?
Ich bin mit den US-amerikanischen Michigan Upper Peninsula Folks verwandt (ich lebe in Illinois). Ich bin gespannt, es zu sehen "Verfügbar" jemals im US-Fernsehen zu sehen, aber das scheint schlecht zu sein …
Is this offensive to native Finns?

No, not really. Sketch is a sketch
Sometimes stereotypes are true. Lol
My impression is that people are more concerned about Swedes playing Finns than about the content of the sketch…
Nah we don’t care
This is hilarious 😂
It wasn’t racist, nor was it funny. I mean why would we dress like north korea’s leader
Most Finns aren’t professional offendees.
Edit: Oops. I guess that’s a generalisation. Most *sensible* Finns I mean.
SNL is offensive to comedy.
Omapa on häpeäsi. Elä sen kanssa.
People I’ve spoken to here find it funny. It’s just a shame that it takes a Swede to get Finnish representation on American TV…
I doubt it. SNL is all about sketches.
You might want to look at „World’s Most Evil Invention“, or „Meet Your Second Wife“, or „Teacher Trail“ (2 sketches) from SNL. There might be more but I remember these well.
Offensive is that they pronounce Heikki as Haiki and sauna as soona and Heikki has Swedish rather than Finnish accent.
Why would I care how some yankees portray Finns?
Oh, we make much rougher jokes about Swedes
Why would it be? It’s actually quite accurate.
Too much emotion
No?
Nah dude, it’s a joke.
Besides it’s crazy to even think about sitting so close to someone you risk touching knees.
/s
There isn’t a joke that will offend us.
we Finns are not the first ones to get offended by a joke, calm down.
If people are offended by this they are snowflakes lol
Offensive? Nah. The accent is all wrong, and it’s not particularly funny to me, but that just means it’s meh as far comedy goes. But I’m probably not the target audience, anyway.
I’m just glad that Alexander Skarsgård – being a Swede – is smart enough to know the difference between Sweden and Finland. An insult that gets the basics right is funny, but an amateurish insult would have been insulting.
No.
This is peak humor and i love it. Hate it when people take shit too seriously and get offended by stuff like this.
It’s a bit like „Finnish“ characters on other shows like Veep or Shoresy. They always find someone not Finnish to play a Finn, and they adopt some weird quasi-Scandinavian accent. People who are not Finns may like the character, but to a Finn it just breaks the immersion immediately because that character is clearly not a Finn. It kind of ruins some of the fun.
If anything, he is too talkative and eloquently dressed. The sketch fails.
