Lilyhammer is a Norwegian-American television series, starring Steven Van Zandt, about a New York gangster trying to start a new life in far away Lillehammer in Norway. The first season with 8 parts premiered on Norwegian TV in January 2012 with a record audience of almost 1 million viewers (one fifth of Norway's population), and premiered on Netflix in North America in February 2012. Lilyhammer is the first original series by Netflix.
A second season has been commissioned, but due to Van Zandt's upcoming tour with Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band it is currently unknown when production will commence.
The series name is spelled differently from the name of the town Lillehammer.
