Advantages: everything you cant stop laughing.
Disadvantages: you might need a wee :o|

Bottom has got to be my most favourite sick-com ever! Second to the "Young Ones" of course. For people who haven't heard of bottom where the hell have u been!!!! Bottom is not to everyone's taste, but hey I have a sick sense of humour. As I was saying Bottom isn't to everyone's taste, you either love it or hate it. With its sick, twisted, filthy slapstick, rib-splintering, insane sexual humour and just plain dirty duos of Rik Mayell and Adrian Edmondson. ...
..."Nutters" to another level. Bottom started with just a 30 minute show on BBC the episodes broadcasted in 1991 for series one, 1992 for series two, 1995 series 3. The series did very well, and then life's two biggest losers, Richard Richard and Eddie Hitler (Rik Mayall and Adrian Edmondson) take it live doing 5 live shows. Bottom Live 2003 is the 5th live show (and upset to say there last one). Weapons Grade Y-Fronts Tours took the UK by storm selling ... Read review

Advantages: As always, very funny
Disadvantages: repeats older material

...Well Compared to the previous bottom live performances, Rik and Ade seems to be losing ideas, as repetition shows. Despite this it has some very new funny ideas. In my opinion, it isn't the funniest episode with great meaning of a story, but is definitely and idea to buy. ... Read review

Advantages: Slapstick crazed humour
Disadvantages: Poor storyline, lack of supporting cast

...the seedy hotel masters of Guest House Paradiso. You've already guessed the plot, you've got a fair idea of the violence that follows, so how does it all add up? To be honest, this is a bridge too far for a comic duo who belong on the live stage together. Bereft of the energy that comes from a heckling audience, they try every trick in the book to drag out a ninety minute success story. Unfortunately, it's half baked and descends in to reckless chaos ...
...the vital ingredient in making Guest House Paradiso a hit or a miss. With Mayall and Edmondson, you have two veteran performers with a fine knack for comic awareness. They know how to rally off of each other and produce some laugh out loud moments. But despite an honorable effort, the mindless violence loses its shock factor and it's only downhill from there. Written by the stars of the movie themselves, Rik and Ade have worked together for a long ... Read review

Advantages: There's a halfway decent supporting cast here, and some good laughs.
Disadvantages: Tim Meadows does NOT have the talent to do anything over a ten minute sketch. Bad acting, soundtrack, storyline, everything

...It's yet another movie from the Saturday Night Live studios, who haven't exactly been churning out quality movies lately. Or quality shows, for that matter. Tim Meadows is Leon Phelps, a late-night, unintentionally foul-mouthed disc jockey with a lisp and essentially one joke: anything sexual. From reading his poem over Chicago's airwaves, "Doin' It In The Butt," to presenting his demo tape to various producers, in which we're repeatedly treated ...
...his late-night radio job for the aforementioned poem among many other FCC violations, he and his producer must go in search of work. But he has a good supporting cast. Billy Dee Williams plays the bartender-cum (no pun intended!)-narrator, whose narration is invariably taken as dialogue by the rest of the cast, who ask him, mystified, what he's talking about. Mark McKinney plays a religious radio station head who is indignant when he discovers the ... Read review

Advantages: Still extremely funny
Disadvantages: Little in the way of extras

The first six 'revolting' episodes of the scraps and scrapes of Richard Richard (Rik Mayall) and Edward Hitler (Ade Edmondson), two of the saddest experimental life-forms known to man. For me possibly the greatest sitcom ever, it was great to finally start my collection on DVD and throw away those dodgy old VHS recordings! Not much in the way of extras sadly, a few (very funny) out-takes and thats about it. Fans of 'Bottom' will know exactly what ...
...comic violence, masturbation jokes, it's all here. For those not yet familiar with the escapades of Richie and Eddie, if you are expecting modern, sophisticated 'comedy', probably best to look elsewhere. If your looking for a bloody good laugh though, very highly recommended! 'Smells' - The duo invest in some pheremone sex spray and hit the local pub to pick up some 'cracking birds'! 'Gas' - Eddie has been stealing next door's gas supply, and the ... Read review
