began his television career in the mid-1990s. Up until 2003, he had
hosted such television shows as Myror i brallan, Ola 21:30,
Skrotslaget, Riktig talkshow, and Söndagsöppet. In 2004, he was
chosen to host that year's version of Melodifestivalen, an annual
music competition and the most popular television program in Sweden.
The following year, Lindholm hosted the first season of Swedish
reality show Wild Kids. Described as a children's version of Survivor,
the show features two groups of children competing with each other in
competitions in the Swedish forest Kolmården, where the contestants
live together until the show is over and the winners win a trip to
Africa. A second season of Wild Kids was filmed in late 2006 and aired
in early 2007. The third season, also hosted by Lindholm, aired in
2009, and a fourth season is currently in production.On 30 October
2007, Lindholm hosted the Nickelodeon Kids Choice Awards, which was
arranged at Cirkus in Stockholm. At the end of 2007, Lindholm appeared
on Babben Larsson's talk show Babben & Co that aired on the national
television broadcaster Sveriges Television (SVT). Prior to his
appearance on that show, Lindholm had only made a few appearances on
television the previous months. He therefore believes his appearance
on Babben & Co was the reason he was selected to host the game-show
Glasklart, a newly created television project by SVT that began airing
in March 2008. Glasklart was the first game-show Lindholm had hosted
in his career. The program, which features charades, was described by
Lindholm as an "hour of warm and exciting entertainment" mixed with
knowledge and craziness.Since 2006, Lindholm has been the editor in
chief of the popular Swedish children's magazine Kamratposten. The
previous editor in chief was Eva Birmann. It was announced on 30 May
2006 that Lindholm would take over the magazine on 1 October that
year. He considered Kamratposten to be a "classic institution" and it
was not hard for him to accept the offer. Prior to joining the
magazine, Lindholm had experienced working with children on the
reality show Wild Kids and the children's nature show Myror i brallan,
both of which aired on SVT.
