The Complete Only Fools And Horses - Not Made Like This Anymore

Advantages: Complete story of only fools, neat lay out, excellent viewing
Disadvantages: Still fairly expensive

The Complete Only Fools and Horses chronicles every single episode from the seven series', as well as each feature length and Christmas special. It is extremely well laid out, in chronological order, so that the show can be watched from start to end with no fuss. The DVDs are all top quality, the sound and pictures are excellent so viewing pleasure is not inhibited in any way. The packaging is also small enough to fit on to shelves, something not ...
...when it first came out, the price. Nearing £200 it was a lot of money for a show that doesn't run anymore, even one as revered as this. Since then, however, the price has fallen by half and so is very much the bargain for any only fools/comedy fan. In my opinion, if you're a fan of the show, a fan of comedy, or just a plain old casual viewer, get this. Apart from being iconic in its potrayal of british life, it is excellent fun. One for all the ...

Eek its so hot; the butter in my pocket is melting

Advantages: Very funny, very well-made, really good voices
Disadvantages: Shame it got cancelled, shame there arent more deleted scenes

...no fan has gone before- Futurama meets Star Trek, with the original cast (GEORGE TAKEI!!) All of series 4- the best series but dont get confused, when they aired it they split into two. Its the most emotional series, fry and leela get closer, also the funniest and the last episode has the robot devil and yet more singing The set comes in a smart box with all 15 dvds in individual boxes but divided by series. Its well presented and put together. ...
...episodes are on it and a brief synopsis. Their are cast and crew commentaries and interviews (Ive only listened to series 4 but they are very funny), storyboards, deleted scenes (not enough though, and shame you cant watch the full episode with the scenes put back in, stills, character profiles, how to draw the characters, also flashes of alien language that appear in the episodes also appear in the menu which apparently can be translated online. ...

The End Of An Era

Advantages: Great cast, great scripts, brill
Disadvantages: nout

...to review this morning, when Friends came on my television. I realised I hadn't reviewed the Season 10 boxset yet, so here it is: What is Friends? For all of you people that lived in a Cave for 14 years, Friends is an American sitcom, following the lives of 6 friends in their late 20's, early 30's, as they deal with day to day life in Manhattan, New York. Friends lasted for 10 series, before it finally came to an end, and overall 10 seasons ...
...around the world. Friends became one of the biggest TV shows ever, their demographic was huge, they appealed to everyone, with brilliant episodes, amazing cast and most importantly, brilliant scripts. The Cast/Charecters Here's a list of the cast and characters that made Friends what it is today. Rachel Green, played by Jennifer Aniston. Rachel was the last 'Friend' to join the group.

I'm Alan Partridge Series One

Advantages: You'll want to watch it again and again!
Disadvantages: I can't think of any!

This DVD is great - All the best that Steve Coogan has to offer and more besides! The scene is set as soon as you play the DVD the menu screen complete with alan prancing around to the theme tune of Black Beauty is a classic in itself - that is worth 5 minutes viewing alone! The story is set with Alan Gordon Partridge now living in the Linton Travel tavern - a rather bland motel which has the convenience of being equidistant between Norwich and ...
...is there are he is working for Radio Norwich on the graveyard shift! The indroduction of his tireless PA Lynn Benfield is a stroke of genius as it shows even more how cruel Alan can be and funny at the same time! The series starts with esisode one - A Room with An Alan - one of the highlights of this episode comes right at the beginning where we dicover that Alans car has been vandalised as the words "Cock, Piss, Partridge" had been spray painted ...

One of the most memorable series' created.

Advantages: More from the classic red dwarf with better screen quality
Disadvantages: It is the Last ever series

...say, it is another classic red dwarf series. This series is on par if not better than the other series's. It is different to the previous five series's because it is less monster of the week and more reminiscant of series one and two. This is mainly due to the sitcom aspect of the red dwarf, because there is a lot more classic lister and rimmer bunk scenes. This series is a lot more contextual and relevant to the time period that it was created, ...
...pure comic genius. So basically if you have ever found anything funny ever, this is the series for you. The bonus skutter is awesome, because despite what the pictures look like the skutter looks the part and is an excellent additon to the collection to the satrbug with the series five dvd. ...
