 Ready for a couple of big jugs? September 3, 2006

"Allo Allo!" Has been around since 1982 and has just recently become available in the USA on a decent media. br / br /This is series three as the series progresses they take more chances and opportunity to parody just about everyone. There are six episodes that are over before you know it. The episodes are too large for one DVD so they filled the second one with the standard extras. Unfortunately the extras add nothing to the series. I am afraid that we will have to wait some time for the next series. br /------------ br /Basic story is of a cafe owner Rene; this is in France during the WWII occupation. He must balance dealing with the local Germans, the Gestapo, the good Resistance, the commie Resistance, having affairs with his female help, dealing with his wife and mother-in-law. Throw in some downed British airmen and some onion soup. br /I will not go though this series in detail because for those that have not seen it or if it has been while since viewing the series, the surprise factor and the one liners are worth discovering first hand. br /The series two includes the introduction of an English officer that thinks he can speak French and comes out with statements like "she has great Fartitude" br /This is the series where they also nick Helga's knickers with the little swastikas. br /One nice thing about this series is that they place the name next to the actor at the end of each episode. Most of the actors are well known out side of this series. I was shocked however to find that Gestapo Herr Otto Flick (Richard Gibson) Played British Capt. Newman in Ken Follett's "The Key to Rebecca" (1985) and completely changed his accent. br /I was surprised to see Lt. Hubert Gruber (Guy Siner.) in Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl (2003.) br /
 Allo! Allo! - Third Series November 2, 2005
Paul (Ontario)
This set gets three stars just for maintaining the Allo Allo franchise. Knowing what comes next, one wonders why Series Four was not inlcuded to make a more palateable purchase. That being said, there is significant story motion here as the battle of wits moves along - particularly Lt. Gruber, who seems to begin to come out of his shell.brIt is worth noting that the DVD Extras on disc two are the most promising of any so far in these releases. One involves a British game show based on the 1970s hit Match Game (Gene Rayburn, hosting) - with most of the cast of Allo Allo involved. Carmen Silvera without all that make up!brIf you are a fanatic for Allo Allo, buy this now - if not, wait for it to be available used - it will seem more value for money!
A little skimpy on the episodes August 24, 2005

This 2 DVD set is of course, as funny as I remember the TV show being. However the second DVD contains only 2 shows and the rest of it is a chat show from England which discusses the pros and cons of trivialzing the war years with comic French resistance workers and Gestapo officers etc. Interesting but you would only want to see it one time. There are also trailers for other DVD's that they want you to buy filling up space on the DVD. So I think that the set is a bit of rip off considering that the cost is almost $40 with tax for Canadians.
