This is such a GREAT UK series! This show aired with Six-Seasons from 1983 through 1993 and had a total of (42) episodes. I used to watch it in the eighties when they aired in the USA on a PBS Station. I have both Season 1 & 2, and Im still waiting years later for Seasons 3,4,5 & 6. Whats the hold-up!?? Im not getting any younger! I'd like to see the rest of the shows before I end up like old Maggie...Does Amazon have a 'request/suggestion' section? Let Amazon know what you think. These DVDS are really worth it! PS: also check out 'One Foot In The Grave"

This is a wonderful dvd set for the person who likes clean comedy. It is based on a mother, who her family thinks has lost her marbles but isn't quite sure if that's it or if she is just crazy like a fox. Ruth Cracknell does a great job portraying the mother, maggie, who's son arthur lives with her and helps look out for her.It's funny from start to finish. I love this dvd set and look forward to the next season on dvd!

I love this! I used to watch it with my kids years ago. I have looked for the series for quite some time and was so thrilled that I was able to find it.

I used to watch this series on PBS and just loved it. I was delighted when Amazon
included this in their 'offerings' - have purchased Series 1 and 2 and am hoping
that the rest of the series will follow but I contacted the Australian distributors
and it seems they have no plans for future episodes to be released so far. I hope
I don't end up like Maggie with her 'senior moments' but I think I am on the way!!

If you like British comedies, you'll love this. The characters are hilarious - especially the Mother. I first saw one episode while visiting England and was delighted to find both Season 1 and Season 2 on Amazon. I'm hoping for Season 3 to be out soon.

a very funny australian comedy series shown on pbs a while back and never seen again. I don't why?

This is a request for the rest of the Mother and Son seasons to be released. Please.
This is an amusing romp through the oft-ignored aspects of living with relatives long after their 'better years' are past. The humor and warmth of the characters is funny and not without the poignant moments, not to the point of being soap-boxy. However, it is apparent, that to 'put mum in a home' is just the chant of a cad and so one learns to live with what will one day envelope us all...old age. This is done with such comical finesse that one watches this show just for it's comedy.
This entire series must be released for us.
