Season 4, Sundays at 8:00 pm on TVNorge.
For the fourth year in a row, twelve Norwegian-Americans get to experience their native country for the first time. In the popular TV series “Alt for Norge” (English: Everything for Norway) the contestants compete to meet their unknown Norwegian family. The show has won Gullruten (Norwegian Emmy) twice.
Through a series of spectacular and humorous challenges, the participants compete to find out which of them is better to adapt a Norwegian lifestyle. Will it be Liv the fire fighter from Minnesota, the shark enthusiast and marine biologist Eric from Florida, the beautiful model Angela, country musician Greg from Nashville, or one of the other Norwegian-Americans who finally get to meet their Norwegian family?
