Close to the stars, on a rehearsal floor

Tett på stjernene means "Close to the Stars." I heard astronomy first. Telescopes.

Scientists waiting on a signal. That is not the 2021 series NRK1 actually ran. latestnetflix.com's take is that this is a twenty-episode documentary companion to Stjernekamp, the Norwegian talent show where working artists take on a new genre every week.

Short pieces, around fifteen minutes, following daily life and rehearsal between the live broadcasts.

I have not watched it. No English synopsis. No named director. No critic quotes. No audience score. The season started 26 August 2021 and ended on Halloween. I will not invent a dressing-room fight or a finale hug and then grade the hugging.

Buzz & Rumors

Public reports

NRK hid a twice-weekly spyhole under Stjernekamp, and the trophy left the rehearsal hall on camera.

The tenth season of Stjernekamp was the live Saturday from Screen Studios in Nydalen, with Kåre Magnus Bergh in the host chair and Mona B. Riise as the standing judge. The new object was not another guest expert. NRK's August 2021 press kit announced Tett på stjernene, two short backstage programs a week, first drop already August 26 on NRK TV, then every Thursday and Sunday for the rest of the run. Monster produced the parent package. The sidecar followed the ten artists at rehearsal, at home, and in the wings. Episodes last about 12 to 17 minutes. There are 20 of them. latestnetflix.com's read is that tVmaze logs the last one on October 31, 2021, the morning after the finale.The English is Close to the Stars. The job is a diary with a parent hit attached. , ,

What the listings actually say. Premiere week puts Carina Dahl and Heidi Ruud Ellingsen on acupuncture while the nerves spike, and Jorun Stiansen gets an extra-emotional opening night. Stadium-rock week puts coach Ida Maria in the room, tattoos Carina's father Diesel Dahl, and hangs on Chand Torsvik after a phone call from his mother. Week four stays in the green room when the first artist has to leave. Later, Carina and Alexandra Rotan play a squash match the log calls a collision. Finale week is the clip people repeat. Bjørn Tomren steals the trophy at rehearsals. Alexandra comforts her siblings after the live show. That is NRK's own episode copy, not a fan wiki rumor.

The parent contest is what the sidecar was built to leak. Ten established names walked in: Chand Torsvik, Alexandra Rotan, Marius Roth Christensen, Anna-Lisa Kumoji, Fredrik Domaas, Carina Dahl, Kevin Mbugua, Heidi Ruud Ellingsen, Bjørn Tomren, Jorun Stiansen. Thirteen genres from own-style night through joik, Latino-pop, and a KORK musical-and-big-band Saturday. No one left after episode 1. Votes carried. Carina went out in the semi with "This Is Me" and told the live show she was proud and glad, and that the point was to make other people dare. Bjørn, the yodeler and throat singer from Tomrefjord, a village of a little more than 1,100, won on October 30. Alexandra, from KEiiNO, took second, called them tears of joy, and said he had shown her a new side of himself as an artist. Last year's winner, Knut Marius Djupvik, is from the same fjord. Two trophies, two years, one place. Tomren said it was "heilt absurd" and that he was speechless. , , ,

VG noted the Saturday live premiere lost viewers versus 2020, 634,000 against 692,000, with Skal vi danse blamed for the dip. The sidecar did not need those numbers. It lived on the stream, twice a week, as the place you watched a tattoo land and a finalist pocket the cup before the vote. If the live show is the contest, Tett på stjernene is the part where someone actually walks off with the hardware. ,
