Product Description

BAD GIRLS is a powerful drama series set in the closed world of an English women’s prison, HMP Larkhall. BAD GIRLS has hard-hitting, heart-wrenching stories that get down and dirty with life behind bars, never shying away from the gritty side of life. On the inside they must negotiate their place in the prison’s hierarchy and sometimes make new sexual choices.

5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!, July 10, 2006
I'm an American who has been in a BBC programming mood lately. Bad Girls was actually recommended to me by Amazon UK after purchasing a few other series.

I wasn't sure what to expect and went in basically knowing nothing about it, except that it was very popular in the UK and a few of the actresses up for parts in Footballers' Wives were initially looking to get into Bad Girls.

Once I popped in the dvd, I was hooked. In one day, I watched ALL of season one. Yes, it is *that* good! Yes, there are lesbians, but the nice thing is that the programme is MUCH deeper than that, and the viewer can actually gain insight into the characters. Sexuality is not the premise for this show.

If you enter the show with certain preconceived notions, you will be surprised. Everyone has a story and it is not as simple as a shag here or there, as Oz was. This is not nearly as dark as Oz, but well written, nonetheless.

The interviews with the cast are a nice bonus as well.

Now if I could only wait the two weeks for my seasons 2 & 3 of Bad Girls to show up from the UK.

For those who are unaware, there are many US dvd players which can play Region 2 (UK) dvds. While Season 2 and later is not yet released in the US, it is available through Amazon.co.uk and they DO ship to the States!

5.0 out of 5 stars Easily the Best Show...EVER!, October 17, 2005
By Kats "iamkats" (Media, Pa United States) - See all my reviews
Those who have read my reviews know that I'm not just a harsh critic...I can be down-right vicious.

However...when I love something I really unleash with the praise.

This series is absolutely one of the best television shows ever produced for British and God knows American television. It never talks down to the viewer and keeps you riveted with the intelligent relationships and drama.

People say OZ was the best prison show ever...I politely disagree.

Bad Girls is one of the most intelligent and provacative shows ever produced.

Buy it, you won't be sorry.

PS- They actually treat a lesbian relationship with dignity! Go figure.

5.0 out of 5 stars Bad Girls Makes For Great TV, June 27, 2005
By D. Chamberlain "dchamberlain072002" (Burlington, Vermont United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I bought this set as a blind buy - I had never heard of the series before. I can not stress enough how great a show this is. The acting is first rate; the storytelling top notch; and characterization some of the best I've seen. Not to give anything away, but there is a character ("Shell" Dockley)that makes Tony Soprano seem like Mother Teresa. If you enjoy topnotch drama please give this series a try. I liked it so much that I bought the rest of the series (six season out so far) from Amazon.co.uk along with a region free DVD Player to watch it with. Again pick this up you will not be disapointed.
