Advantages: Superb acting and characters

Disadvantages: The canned laughter is annoying

This is a great first season, it is slightly slower than the second. This allows us to get used to the weirdness. I must admit I was rather unsure when I first saw this on TV many years ago. However I'm now an avid fan and own every DVD I could find from these guys.

The setting is a stange little village in the middle of nowhere in the contry, the characters are even stranger. The 3 actors each play many roles, the most famous being the old man and woman that own a convinience shop in the middle of a big field. They are instantly recognizable because of their upturned noses, and like many of the characters they have catch phrases that thousands of kids and young adluts used to repeat to each other.

The one downfall and reason I only give 4 stars in the canned laughter which really annoys me. The show is no funny like most things and I for one would really have not felt prompted to laugh every few seconds.

Summary: Classic comedy

a great and strange programme, but your review doesn't really do it justice.
