Wiki.

Stop Nyqvist (Finnish: Pysäyttäkää Nyqvist) is a Finnish satirical comedy series that premiered on Yle in the summer of 2022. The series addresses Finland's efforts to join NATO, hybrid warfare, Finlandization, and bureaucratic scheming. The main character, Aleksis Nyqvist, is an inept intern at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs who unexpectedly gets promoted to lead a new Baltic Sea unit. Nyqvist is portrayed by Antti Tuomas Heikkinen, with Marc Gassot, Sonja Kuittinen, and Jarkko Pajunen in supporting roles.

The series was originally planned to air in May 2022, with marketing scheduled to begin in February. However, following Russia's invasion of Ukraine in 2022, the plans were postponed. The series was eventually made available on Yle Areena on June 10, 2022, and premiered on television on June 12, 2022.

The series was written by Heikki Heiskanen and Teemu Kaskinen, and directed by Juha Lankinen. Writing began seven years earlier. According to Kaskinen, the inspiration for the series came from exploring how badly things can go wrong when organizations start believing in their own narratives. He also wanted to parody spy thrillers and Nordic noir. Filming took place in Helsinki and Imatra.
