SVT premieres ‘Boyfriends’ reality series in Stockholm

SVT has premiered a new reality series titled ‘Boyfriends’, following the lives of Oscar Zia, Edvin Törnblom, and stylist Sebastian Hammarberg in Stockholm. The series explores the friendship and personal lives of the three men as they navigate their late 20s and early 30s.

A central theme of the show is the search for community and the experience of homosexual loneliness. The participants note that while many of their female friends have moved into stages of life involving marriage and children, they are only now forming a close-knit group of male friends. The series touches on topics such as jealousy, dating apps, and the complexities of navigating sexual availability within a friendship group.
