I’m not saying the Swedes are a morbid people, but the anti-hero of the Swedish morning kids’ tv show is a malevolent 8 feet tall amorphous cat-faced spirit called Sommarskuggan (Summer-shadow)
He binds the presenters’ legs, traps them in nets and covers them in a licorice-black goop called skuggslem (shadow-slime). They’re constantly treading in cow-pat style deposits of the stuff, which threatens to erupt from the earth like a volcano

(Kids TV slime is one thing when dayglo green, and something else when it looks like a Spideyverse symbiote trying to bind with a new host)
The force for good in this summer kids’ TV institution is Vinterskuggan (Winter-shadow). Vinterskuggan rarely appears
I contend that only the nation whose crowning cinematic achievement is The Seventh Seal (top quote: “We must make an idol of our fear, and call it god”) could have created the nightmarish Sommarskuggan for its kids’ TV summer special
See?
