Scanialara You won't be disappointed!

KnotMissPriceless Why so much hype?

Hadrina The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

Casey Duggan It’s sentimental, ridiculously long and only occasionally funny

Myriam Nys Superbly demented comedy about the adventures (or non-adventures, as the case may be) of three maladjusted eccentrics trying to navigate a sea of troubles. Highly original ideas and concepts, excellent dialogue, fine performances and a tangible chemistry between the leads - so what more do you need ? (In case you're thinking : "I'd like some random dancing of the deconstructivist school", don't worry, there's that too.) For all its weirdness, the series is grounded in reality : as a devout visitor to second-hand bookshops I can confirm that this is a prime environment for the sad, the deluded, the angry, the perverse, the eccentric and the misanthropic.My memories include a manager, in Brussels, who liked to spell out his wishes and desiderata to prospective customers as soon as they entered the store. ("Article one. ALL customers, and I do mean ALL, will greet me in a clear and audible voice upon crossing the threshold"). I also remember a fellow customer who liked to browse his way through stacks of French cooking books - "I don't cook myself but one likes to dream" - while telling everybody about his dog, which had a double jointed tail ; and finally there was a vicious-looking shop girl, tattooed with the ugliest Mexican flower skull I've ever seen, who accused everybody of trying to buy and sell obscene materials. At one point she even accused the postman who tried to give her some mail.But to return to the subject : I firmly recommend the episode about the most expensive bottle of wine in the world. (The episode, sad to say, does not end well for the Supreme Pontiff.) I laughed so hard I nearly fell out of my chair.

natalie-29959 This has to be one of the best series I have ever watched. Laugh till you fall off your chair funny. It is dark, sarcastic and typical of great British television. If you like dark humour and need a break from American "funny" make a point of watching this series, your biggest regret will be that they stopped after 3 seasons.Bernard is the worst boss (and probably person) ever while Fran is beyond "blonde", while Manny is typical of a down-trodden past sell-by date hippie.Just good watching!! Wish there was more.

mnjames-876-392018 Mildly funny, but with a hideous laugh track. Honestly, I didn't get past the first episode, mostly due to the inappropriate cackling of the artificial audience - very bad choice. Without that it could be funny, at least if you were quite high.To the creators of this site, canceled can be spelled with two "L"s both spellings are valid.I dunno (not a real word) what dictionary you're using, but there's a problem with it.Also, apparently, I need to add more lines? Who is making these rules? If this review is rejected it's the last time I'll bother trying to contribute to this site. It's potentially worse that Wikipedia, and I didn't think it was possible to surpass that level of stupid.

PaulBerriman9 This comedy with Dylan Moran, Bill Bailey and Tasmin Grieg is one not to be missed. It is truly hilarious, with not only great one-liners but also farce elements. The character of Bernard Black is played superbly by Moran and plays beautifully off Fran (Grieg) and Manny (Bailey). One of the best British comedies, from Graham Lineham, who also wrote Father Ted and The IT Crowd. It is a pity there are only three series of this wonderfully smart, witty and laugh-out-loud show. Each story is full of great moments, but it is the character from which the comedy stems. The direction and writing are superb and the acting by the main cast is outstanding.
