Håkan Bråkan was the Sveriges Television's Christmas calendar of 2003, based on the literary character with the same name.
The background also shows the mental institution where Karin lives during parts of the series.
[2] The plot is based on Familjen Anderssons sjuka jul[3] and the Christmas show featured Håkan as the protagonist.
He is quite ingenious and does lots of pranks that usually puts him or others in a tight spot but this is seldom his intended purpose.
Håkan's rather stupid father Rudolf is by his side in this and throughout the show he tries his best to make Christmas perfect, but fails miserably.
