Carl Robert Olof Gustafsson (born 20 December 1964 in Katrineholm) is a Swedish comedian, actor, and member of Killinggänget. He has sometimes been called "the funniest man in the world". While Killinggänget is mostly known for its use of irony and pop-culture references, Gustafsson usually employs a more traditional and physical style of comedy, such as slapstick and playing characters with highly exaggerated personalities. He is well known for his range of funny voices and his tendency to play people who end up hurting themselves. This style is a lot more pronounced when he is working solo or with other people outside Killinggänget. Some of the roles that Robert has portrayed include: * Greger: An obviously homosexual fireman dressed in a plaid kilt. * Various old people: Gustafsson is known for portraying old and often rather senile individuals. * Bertil: An accident-prone gardener who has his own tv-show. This role was inspired by a 1980s Swedish gardening show where the host accidentally cut his thumb with a knife. This role led to some of Gustafsson's more gory comedy. In addition, Gustafsson is a skilled imitator and his many famous imitations include Sven Wollter, Ernst-Hugo Järegård, Tony Rickardsson, Robert Aschberg and Magnus Härenstam as well as former Prime Ministers Göran Persson and Carl Bildt. Gustafsson is one of Sweden's most famous and beloved comedians, having appeared in many TV shows and films. He has also appeared on Norwegian television, in the show Åpen Post. Besides his iconic work with Killinggänget he has been a cornerstone of Swedish entertainment for many years. He has played in sitcoms such as Rena rama Rolf, and been a regular guest on comedy shows such as Gäster med gester and Parlamentet, a popular panel show similar to BBC's Have I Got News For You.
