Advantages: Price, Laughter, Acting,
Disadvantages: No Extras,

...order a re-count! I believe Blackadder deserved a lot more as the acting and the events which happen to Edmund Blackadder (Rowan Atkinson - the former Mr Bean) and his servant Baldrick (Tony Robinson - Time Team) are only to be laughed at again and again. "Blackadder - The complete collection" is a 6 disc DVD limited edition box set of all the 4 Blackadder series, including the 3 specials Blackadders Christmas Carol, The Cavalier Years and the ...

Disadvantages: None (except if you bought previous box sets which are now outdated).

...of all time Blackadder! The original Blackadder was written by Richard Curtis (also Vicar of Dibley, Four Weddings & A Funeral and Notting Hill) and Rowan Atkinson.

Advantages: conveniantly packaged, good series, lots of laughs, very amusing
Disadvantages: quite short series

I think the acting and humour is top notch and it features 4 of televisions greatest actors of all time "Stephen Fry, Hugh Laurie, Rowan Atkinson and Tony Robinson). very wry and witty this is a great box set to buy if you want some top quality BBC made entertainment. However, the entire 4 series only adds up to 14 hours,so i feel that the box ... Read review

Advantages: Every Blackadder episode
Disadvantages: none

...of 6 DVDs with every Blackadder episode. The first disc is the first series, "The Blackadder" which is good but not fantastic. The second disc is "Blackadder the Second" which is set in the reign of Elizabeth II and is excellent. The Third disc takes us to the 1800's and "Blackadder the third" and again is excellent and we have Hugh Laurie as the stupid Prince Regent and Blackadder as his servant. Disc 4 is "Blackadder goes fourth" set in the trenchs ... Read review
