boosh-tastic! Review ofThe Mighty Boosh - Series 1 And 2 DVDby
vickymoo
Advantages: the most unique comedy in the world! Disadvantages: only two short series :-(
how can i describe the mighty boosh? well, its that type of comedy that you'll either completely love (with a scarily obsessed passion), or you'll just absolutely not get...(although i think this is a crime if this is the case). this is the box set including series 1 and series 2. it comes in a black card case with the mighty boosh monkey face on the front. also inside is a little booklet (that you only get with this box set) featuring outtake photos ... ...scribble drawings. the two creators and actors of the mighty boosh are noel fielding and julian barratt. fielding plays the electro-rock-mod king vince noir, and barratt plays pessimistic-jazz-loving howard moon.
SERIES ONE
howard and vince, work in a run-down zoo called the zooniverse, overseen by retarded american Bob Fossil, can't afford any real animals, forcing howard and vince on the odd occasion to dress up as animals to fill up the zoo. ...

Advantages: Pure genius, great value for money Disadvantages: None
...Barratt and Noel Fielding make the perfect unlikely pairing as they star in The Mighty Boosh. With Mike Fielding, Dave Brown and Rich Fulcher also starring in most episodes, particularly series 2, the journey is a thoroughly enjoyable one as Howard Moon and Vince Noir find themselves in all sorts of weird and wonderful situations, often needing Naboo the Enigma and Bollo, Naboo's familiar to get them out of trouble.
Series 1 is set in Bob Fossil's ... ...in these episodes, and in the first episode, Killeroo, Bob Fossil makes Howard fight the deadly kangaroo, which he refuses to do until Vince convinces him that it will make Mrs Gideon fall for him. Howard the Jazz Maverick and Vince King of the Mods go through many different experiences in the Zoo, and this does not chnage in series 2. In series 2, the Zooniverse is no more and Howard, Vince, Naboo and Bollo now live together in a flat in Dalston ...

Advantages: Extremly funny, genius comedy and something you'll watch over and over again! Disadvantages: I guess not enough of it but I'm just a greedy fan, I want more!!!
...through time and space....' is the opening line to the shows theme tune and it pretty much describes the whole show perfectly. Vince Noir (Noel Fielding-hilarious stand-up comedian who ive had the pleasure of watching :D) and Howard Moon (Julian Barratt...ummm... :D) take you on an adventure every episode, whether its the Arctic Tundra or to Monkey Hell they've got it all down!!
Along the way you'll meet many hilarious side characters for The Hitcher- ... ...thumb, to Bob Fossil the ecentric 'secretly' gay head zoo keeper who likes to rub his nipples. Many of the characters are played by Noel or Julian and through each one their comical genius shines through. You completly froget your looking at the same actor that you saw as a different character in the last scene and just get taken on a roller coaster of non-stop laughs. It is definately one of those shows that you either love or hate. As soon as I ...

Advantages: Excellent comedy from two of the surreal modern day comedy writers Disadvantages: If you dont get it you will hate it
The might boosh follows the adventures of Howard Moon and Vince Noir in there mystical journeys through space and time (think improvised musical theater on acid). The two main characters contrast completely, Howard being a bland, tweed wearing, jazz lover; and Vince being a slightly insane, very unconventional, "rock and roll superstar"; often sporting some of the most ridiculous costumes on TV (A glittery all over spandex body suit to name but one), ... ...The two are constantly in competition with each other generally with Howard trying his hardest to achieve something great, and Vince somehow stealing all recognition through a mix of complete luck and his natural charm, Howard's problems are not helped by the lack of respect shown to him by almost every character on the show. The witty banter between the two and Howard,s constant failings make for great viewing though and the beauty of the show really ...
