How Come Only one Season?


Im really enjoying this as its being shown on BBC4, cant beleive they only made once season of it though, did it not do well in Iceland or something?

My favourite epsiode has to be the one where Oli drinks that protein shake and starts lactating! hilarious stuff!

There are 3 series from of which I'm aware, just called different things. I think the second is The Day Shift, and the third has them working at a hotel or something.

So I'm hoping that BBC Four will show them all.

EDIT: There is:

Dagvaktin (The Day Shift)- they work at a hotel
Fangavaktin (The Prison Shift)- they are in prison (a spoiler for series 2 there!)
there is also a film, Bjarnfreðarson, which according to wiki beat Avatar at the box office in Iceland- so quite popular after all!

I think I've ripped my spleen- Louie Spence

The made 3 seasons, The night shift, The day shift and The prison shift. Then they ended the story with a feature length movie called Bjarnfreðarson which is Georgs last name. The show is the most successful television show in Iceland ever and the movie broke box office records
