Klovn
''Klovn'' ("Clown") is a Danish sitcom, which first aired on the Danish TV channel TV2 Zulu. It focuses on the life of the main character Frank (played by Frank Hvam) and Casper (played by Casper Christensen). The show builds its comedy around quiet everyday situations, social awkwardness, uncomfortable silences and general faux pas. ''Klovn'' shares many concepts with the American sitcom ''Curb Your Enthusiasm'' by Larry David, notably the main concept of a semi-retired comedian encountering humorous and embarrassing situations, along with his wife, friends and celebrity acquaintances. The show is also held in a pseudo-realistic style where all lines are retroscripted, so a first-time viewer might be in doubt of whether or not the show is staged. Even the score is similar. In spite of this, in its closing credits, the show is claimed to be an original idea by Casper Christensen and Frank Hvam. The sitcom consists of 78 episode An episode is a narrative unit within a lar ...

Kochsvej
Kochsvej is a minor, mainly residential street in the Frederiksberg district of Copenhagen, Denmark, between Frederiksberg Alléto the north and Vesterbrogade to the south. History The land at the site was in the mid-1880s part of F. J. Koch's market gardens. The street was created when he started to sell the land off in lots to members of the higher middle-class for house construction. The name was officially adopted in 1885. The last market gardens, on the east side of the street, disappeared in 1895. The trend in the area had by then shifted from houses to apartment buildings Buildings The two oldest houses with addresses on Kochsvej are considerably older than the street. The house at No. 3 was built for music teacher Adolph Lund in 1852. The building was designed by Bernhard Seidelin. The neighbor at No. 5A is from 1867. The house at No. 24 was built for the namesake gardener F. J. Koch's use. It was completed in 1898 to a design by the architect Julius Schmidth. The vi ...
