Advantages: Great extras, great story line.
Disadvantages: The series is finished!

It is tragic that this terrific series has come to an end. However, since it's the last dvd set they have provided some extra features on the final disc to make everyone feel a little better. These include interviews with cast and crew, so you can find out what they really think of each other, but more importantly some hilarious out-takes. These prove Jennifer, Courtney, Lisa, the two Matts and David are just as amusing off set as they are on. I ... Read review

Advantages: Funny, entertaining, easy to follow,
Disadvantages: very few extra features, only 7 episodes.

I stumbled across Shameless on Channel 4 one evening watching late night telly. It was a re-run of an old episode. I decided it had to be better than watching The Mint so decided to give it a try. I wasn't disappointed. The best place to begin my review would be to introduce you to the family so you can get a feel of the characters and how they relate to each other in the episodes on the DVD. The Gallagher's are a large family who moved to the ...
...not the best series of Shameless but is very funny none the less. Storylines including Drunken trips to France, when frank ends up drunk on a park bench in Calais after a night at the local only to be thrown in prison after misinterpretations from an English speaking French prisoner. Veronica and Kev have a fake wedding to collect money left by Veronica's dad before passing away for her big day. Only for the reception to go up in smoke when her ... Read review

Advantages: Some extremely funny episodes
Disadvantages: Some not so good episodes

Having loved My Family for years I decided it was about time I purchased the next series to add to my collection. The series in question is series 4, which is by no means the newest series just the next one I needed. Now I have very mixed opinions about this series. I am glad that I purchased it as there are some very funny episodes on the disc but I do have to say that this is definitely the series where things seriously began to slip. My Family ...
...fellow dentist Roger. My favourite episodes in this series are The Great Escape and Canary Cage. In 'The Great Escape' Susan's mother comes to visit the family and after an unfortunate incident with a toilet seat which can only be blamed on Ben's failure to fix it she ends up staying until she has recuperated. The family however, including Susan, really do not like her and Ben often terms her bat woman. With such feelings of seeming hatred brewing ... Read review

Advantages: it makes you laugh, fantastic lines
Disadvantages: You'll quote Alan at the most inconvient times!!!!

...review series 2 of I'm Alan Partridge. Plus it gave me a fantastic excuse to watch it again (not that i need one!!)...Oh and it was better than watching wrestling......What is it with blokes watching wrestling...mmmm the divas i expect. Anyway, going of subject here!!!!! Well sexy Alan is back (He's been gone for 5 years after suffering a nervous breakdown), and as good as ever in this even more fantastic second series!! Whatever Steve Coogan does, ...
...naughty. In this series Alan has mangaed to get himself a 33 year old, Ukranian girlfriend, Sonja (played by Amellia Bullmore) and has now moved out of the hotel, into a caravan whilst his house is being finished. So we could say in some respects that things are looking up for dear old Alan in this series...He has even progressed on radio Norwich....to the third best slot, Norwich nights!!! He even presents a military quiz show called Skirmish!!! ... Read review

Advantages: Great laughs throughout
Disadvantages: ???

...that any extra scenes from Peter Kay would have been hilarious. Peters main style consists of making jokes about the everyday things that we do. For example the 'Walking to the Dance Floor Dance',which im afraid the majority of us have probably done,and being at Weddings and family occasions,where a whole host of strange relatives come out of the woodwork! Kay starts the DVD off,by getting a Taxi with Boltons famous Taxi Driver:Mr Bee. Mr Bee ...
...about missing the show. Then Peter says something funny,if I remember correctly,like:'How can you miss the show when your sharing a Taxi with the comedian your off to see?!' These women are achully from Coronation street,in the name of Barmaids,Gina and Shelley. Kays jokes keep coming thick and fast and guarantee a laugh everytime. He not only does jokes,but incorporates singing songs that we all recognise,but by changing the words,he also demonstrates ... Read review
