START WITH THIS VOLUME November 11, 2000
By A Customer
Good Neighbors (aka The Good Life) is undoubtably one of the best British Comedies around. Great characters, witty conversations, never a dull moment, etc. And this series is especially effective for three reasons: First, it's easy to understand what they're saying (unlike some Brit comedies where they talk too fast with strong accents); second, there's a minimum of Brit-only jokes (not many political barbs, etc., that are lost on Americans); and finally, the humor is timeless. A truly great series. Unfortunately, it was not taped for video in the same order in which it appeared on BBC, which is pretty critical to a British comedy series. You need to start with Vol. 4 to find the first show, which explains what the Goods are doing and why. Love it!

Another excellent Britcom! September 30, 2002

Good Neighbors (or The Good Life as it was known in the UK) is the story of Tom and Barbara Good, a middle-aged couple in the 1970s who decide to escape the rat race by living a life of complete self-sufficiency. They exchange their car for a cultivator, and turn their garden into a full-fledged (if rather small) farm. Their good friends and neighbors, the social climbing Gerry and Margot Leadbetter (played by Paul Eddington and Penelope Keith!) sometimes provide support, and other times disapproval. Through it all, the antics of the two mismatched set of neighbors produces laughs and good times for all!

Sadly, for some reason known only to the BBC, the episodes of this wonderful show have been released in a seemingly random order. Still, this show is so good, that it is better to have them this way than not at all! This tape contains three, half-hour episodes.

Plough Your Own Furrow - Series 1, episode 1 (April 4, 1975)(Why is this one on volume 4?) - It's Tom's 40th birthday, and he is tired of a meaningless life of designing junky plastic prizes for cereal boxes. With Barbara's help, it's time for a whole new lifestyle!

Say Little Hen...? - Series 1, episode 2 (April 11, 1975) - The goat has been a smashing success, and now it's time to add chickens to the menagerie. But, how do you force a chicken to lay eggs? Jerry and Margot realize that it's time to get involved, and save the Goods from themselves.

The Pagan Rite - Series 1, episode 6 (April 11, 1975) - Tom realizes that Barbara deserves a reward for all her work. She would love to go on a pagan rite, a visit to a posh restaurant and hotel. But, how can it be done with no money?

Get them all. Britcoms rule! September 28, 2000
I saw this series when it came to US TV some years ago (thank you, forever, PBS). I loved it then. I love it now. I've got the whole collection, finally.

Stars: Tom & Barbara Good, played by Richard Briers and Felicity Kendal - whom I worship, and Margo & Jerry Leadbetter, played by Penelope Keith and Paul Eddington.

I also saw Felicity Kendal in a PBS replay of the BBC Shakespeare series with her starring as Viola in "Twelfth Night" and was so impressed that I named a daughter after her.

Felicity (and the other cast members) are believable, funny, and always in trouble, love, etc., with each other.

The setting... Tom & Barbara move to a ritzy neighborhood and start a farm... well, more like they decide to "live off the land." Try that in a swank neighborhood and I'm sure you'll end up with some of the problems they had.

Totally hysterical. Very funny. A must see. Own it if you can. Definitely for the whole family.
