5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant British Animation! :), September 11, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Bob & Margaret 1-3 [VHS] (VHS Tape)

Bob & Margaret is one cartoon series I really and truly adore. It's total and pure escapism. It's refreshing, funny & incredibly entertaining. It annoys me that it is no longer airing on comedy central. It was well worth having cable just to watch. I used to watch it every week on comedy central. However, they had eventually dropped it, & as a result have lost my viewership.

Rarely does a series so acutely portray typical comical everyday misadventures as humourously as the characters of the show's namesake. I cannot understand why no other american network hasn't bought the rights to air this here in the states after its unjust axing from Comedy Central.

As soon as i saw that volumes 1-6 were available i had to buy the entire set. I'm not much into animation, but this show is so cute and lovable. I even enjoy the dogs scene-stealing spots! :) What's more, I never tire of watching. Even if i'd just recently viewed any particular episode, this one is a classic. A real keeper. And it is my belief that Bob & Margaret will remain the little animated-adult series that could. Share in the lunacy & splurge.

Because this is no longer airing throughout the country, don't take a chance by rockin' the boat with purchasing these videos. There may be the unfortunate possibility that they become discontinued. Buy the whole damn set!

This review is from: Bob & Margaret 1-3 [VHS] (VHS Tape)

Bob and Margaret is the best animated series I have ever seen,these two are so real,and go throught the same ups and downs and life experiences and annoyances as real life couples.My husband and I are just like them with our pets,and our love for take out and everything.Its a really funny show that anyone can relate to and I really hope they bring out new episodes to tape or dvd soon,I already own the two video collections out now.Comedy Central should also show it again,I don't think they realized just how big the shows following was.Also the show and Bob and Margaret the characters are now based in Canada and that's why the show is not on in the U.S. anymore just to let you know.But maybe they will at least put season 2 and 3 on tape someday.

5.0 out of 5 stars Real life brought to animated British form, December 27, 1999

This review is from: Bob & Margaret 1-3 [VHS] (VHS Tape)

Great British humour at it's best that relates to real life. About a chilly dentist named Bob and his bubbly cheropitist wife Margaret. It refers to about getting older, having kids, losing weight, sex and lots of conflicts that affect everyday couples.
