Syttymässä

Syttymässä was a Finnish television series that aired from 1975 to 1978. The show was a comedy and drama series that followed the lives of the inhabitants of a fictional town in rural Finland. The title of the series, Syttymässä, translates to "in the making" or "in the process of becoming", which reflects the show's focus on the everyday lives and struggles of its characters.

The series was created by Aarre Levonen and produced by Yleisradio (Yle), the Finnish public broadcasting company. It was known for its gritty and realistic portrayal of rural life in Finland during the 1970s. The show often tackled topics such as poverty, unemployment, and social inequality, which were pressing issues in Finland at the time.

Syttymässä was a groundbreaking series in Finnish television history, as it was one of the first shows to feature a ensemble cast and a realistic portrayal of everyday life. The show's success was largely due to its well-developed characters and its ability to tackle tough social issues in a humorous and relatable way. The series consisted of 86 episodes and was a major ratings success during its run. Despite its popularity, Syttymässä is not as well-known today as some other Finnish television series from the same era. Nevertheless, it remains an important part of Finnish television history and a significant contribution to the country's cultural heritage.
