749,000 Swedes have seen every episode of the Christmas calendar online, an average of 2 million have seen it in broadcast. Last year, the digital average was 404,000 per episode and 1.7 million in broadcast. The digital increase will be as much as 85 percent.

- An increase of 85 percent online is fantastic and gives us a receipt that the Christmas calendar is an important tradition that brings the family together regardless of platform, says Johanna Gårdare, Program Manager at the Children's Channel and responsible publisher for the Christmas calendar, in a press release.

She also says that she thinks part of the success of this year's calendar is that SVT has been responsive to what needs the audience wants a Christmas calendar to fill.

But not everyone has loved the Christmas calendar. Even after a first program, parents raged against violent scenes in a trailer that appeared in conjunction with the Christmas calendar, and reviewers have written about how the script writers flirt too much with the adult audience. Historian Dick Harrison writes in Svenska Dagbladet that "an open anti-intellectual stance permeates Storm on Quiet Street".

Next year's Christmas calendar is already nailed. It will be called "Panic in the Workshop", and it is promised to be a "humorous Christmas story that takes place in the site of the site".

In the roles of the site and plot themes we see Per Andersson and Pernilla Wahlgren. For screenplay and direction stands Fredde Granberg and Thomas Claesson, who are also behind the popular series Family Rysberg.
