Advantages: Very Clever Animation Disadvantages: Few Real Laughs
...the best ones are developed into the animations.
On occasion these are funny, and by funny I mean laugh out loud funny. But for the most part they are merely slightly amusing anecdotes on various, mostly bland, subject matter and observations on life. More often than not it is the background characters that will do something that makes you smile by doing something funny, but ultimately the laughs just aren't there consistently enough for me.
There is no doubt that it is very clever, and the idea behind to whole thing is an original one but after the first few interviews you begin to wonder when the laughs will begin. For example there is a Welsh Dog, not sure of the breed but it is one of those dogs with folds of skin, well it just isn't funny at all, not in any way shape or form. Perhaps it's me. Perhaps my sense of humour is flawed, but...

Advantages: Awesome episodes - a classic t.v. sitcom produced to be as the original was Disadvantages: not sharper image, no extras
...leg from the morge where he brought it home from one of his classes to write an essay on it. He decides to strap it to the front of his car instead in the 1st episode!
The DVD is a simple set up and plays striaght on to the episodes, you can select play all, or view one by one. It contains the whole of series one of the young ones. The episodes are as follows; 1. Demolition. This is the first one ever and we see an intro duction to all the characters, including the landlord who has various other roles throughout the series. The basic plot appart from setting up and introducing characters is that the guys are living in their accomodation they have done for some time when one day they recieve a letter from the council informing them that their house is to be demolished. Naturally Vyvyan throws a tantrum and decides to beat them to the job...

Advantages: A strong British sitcom Disadvantages: Still has it's odd critic
...Name a decent British sitcom from the last 5 years....now name one that isn't written by Ricky Gervais and Stephen Merchant....or David Mitchell and Robert Webb...all you're left with (in my opinion) is a little known sitcom written by Ruth Jones and James Corden that has escalated from a bit-part in the schedule of BBC Three to one of the most loved comedies of recent years - Gavin & Stacey.
The story goes of two people who have never met, Gavin (Matthew Horne) and Stacey (Joanna Page), but eventually decide to do so after months of chatting to one another over the phone. Upon meeting in the middle of Leicester Square along with their best mates, Smithy (played by Corden) and Nessa (Jones), they hit it off and decide it was one of the best decisions they ever made. The same can't be said about Smithy and Nessa however...
As the series...
