"Charlie has an endearing housekeeper Two and a Half Men DVD in Berta, who has Charlie wrapped around her little finger...there's also Rose who lives a few beach houses away, who become Charlie's stalker and after being dumped by Charlie...superglues certain parts of his privates to his thighs...and finally there is Evelyn, Charlie's and Alan's mother...Charlie contantly refers to her as 'SATAN' and the fact that she sucked their souls Weeds DVD dry when they were youngsters...if this doesn't whet your appetite as to this award winning programme...perhaps your soul was also sucked dry at a young age...Brilliant and American are words that don't come to be paired often, this is especially true for American sit/com shows.
However this is a wonderful series that always pleases. Snappy one liners, brilliant comedy at a gentle pace rather that the rat at tat of other shows. The build up to the one liner is a joy True Blood DVD that the viewer can really appreciate. Well written and brilliantly acted by the central stars who are able to laugh at themselves, (wonderful for american actors) and the wonderful support cast of Rose (mad as a box of frogs), Loretta, Alan's ex neo lesbian, haridan, harie of a wife and others. A word on the series. Each show is about 20 minutes long... yes amazing when you realise that these are half hour shows. No ten minutes of advertising. Gossip Girl DVD You can easily watch three episodes back to back and spend a very enjoyable hour. But of course in 20 minutes you will not get the set up and complexities of a 40 min (1 hour show say ala House etc) So the shows are comedy lite and therefore so much more easily consumed and enjoyed? The chocolate biscuit and a nice cup of tea scenario ala Dad's Army. My son of 12 watches the show and of course he is not fazed by the occasional mild references to sex and all its glory, not to mention terms (oral sex etc). The L Word DVD His mother is not so sure. So the word is watch a few shows, make your mind up that junior is mature enough to get but NOT be corrupted by the sexual content. (Which is what responsible parents should do more often?) Brilliant easy to watch comedy, Good characters and easy situations make this a winner. 5 well deserved stars. "
