More and more Eastern European workers are coming to our rich country. Are they the slaves of our time?

Løpegutter
Janne Amble and Kadafi Zaman try to find out what causes boys as young as 15 to become criminal runaways on Oslo's eastern edge. We meet both former gang members, experienced police officers, and boys who have to live with the consequences of the choices they have made every day.

I Guds navn
How much do we really know about the congregations society supports with millions each year? What is it like to be a member of two of the largest Christian congregations in Norway? We hear stories about, among other things, social control, money pressure and how difficult it is to break out.

Barna som forsvant
In Norway, there are people who were torn away from their biological parents when they were children because they belonged to the Tater and Romani people. Over several decades, over 1,500 children were forcibly placed in orphanages and foster homes. How are the children who disappeared today?

Det vanskelige valget
4 out of 10 Norwegian women have an abortion during their lifetime. So why is a topic that concerns so many yet so difficult to be open about? In this episode, Janne and Kadafi investigate what it means to have an abortion in Norway. On the way, they meet abortion opponents and campaigners, and we get to know one of the many women who have an abortion in Norway every year.

Spiontrusselen
According to PST, the biggest threat to Norwegian citizens is no longer terrorism, but foreign intelligence. Should we be worried? In this episode, Kadafi and Janne investigate how foreign intelligence operates on Norwegian soil and we get to know some of the people who work every day to stop them.

De glemte guttene
Unemployment, suicide, drug addiction and crime. Men dominate the misery statistics in Norway, and some believe that it is only a matter of time before we have a serious school shooting in Norway. In this episode, Janne and Kadafi meet some of the boys who have fallen outside our society. We get to hear what the isolation has done to them, and what it takes to get back.

Kampen for livet
When should society's financial considerations outweigh medical benefits for the individual? Kadafi and Janne explore a healthcare system that works well for most people, but not for those unlucky enough to have a fatal diagnosis for which the authorities do not offer treatment.

De vi ikke ønsker
Every year several thousand people try to get a new life in Norway, but the dream of becoming part of Norwegian society often comes to a tragic end. What are the human consequences of a strict and fair immigration policy? In this episode, Janne and Kadafi meet some of those who stand in the middle of this system, and who in various ways fight for the right to a dignified life in Norway.

Beyond the Gates
Beyond the Gates is set in a leafy Maryland suburb just outside of Washington D.C., and in one the most affluent African American counties in the United States. Here you'll find a posh gated community with winding tree-lined streets and luxurious mansions to call home. At the center of this community are the Duprees, a powerful and prestigious multi-generational family that is the very definition of Black royalty. But behind these pristine walls and lush, manicured gardens are juicy secrets and scandals waiting to be uncovered. And those that live outside these gates are watching closely. These are the places where our characters live, love, work and play. Those who have "made it" and those who haven't are all trying to navigate life … and some with more grace than others.

Family Guy
Family Guy follows Peter Griffin the endearingly ignorant dad, and his hilariously offbeat family of middle-class New Englanders in Quahog, RI. Lois is Peter's wife, a stay-at-home mom with no patience for her family's antics. Then there are their kids: 18-year-old Meg is an outcast at school and the Griffin family punching bag; 13-year-old Chris is a socially awkward teen who doesn't have a clue about the opposite sex; and one-year-old Stewie is a diabolically clever baby whose burgeoning sexuality is very much a work in progress. Rounding out the Griffin household is Brian the family dog and a ladies' man who is one step away from AA.
