Summary: The Good Life (UK title) - good 70s comedy
Comment: The innocence here is refreshing - the world is less complicated and everything can be solved by planting your own veg. - wonderful.
Customer Rating:
Summary: A disappointment!
Comment: Sadly, this series does not hit its stride until about halfway through the 2nd season. The 1st season is mildly amusing, but not really funny. Perhaps it is just dated. Eventually the writers start to utilize Penelope Keith and the series starts to take off. It is overpriced for a season and a half of good comedy!
Save your money and buy To the Manor Born instead.

Summary: The Suburban Farmer
Comment: We used to watch this program on our local PBS station. We thoroughly enjoyed the series while it was on. When we moved to the country and no longer had cable; we couldn't watch any more. We were remembering the series as we have a city neighbor recently retired to the country that reminded us of the whole thing. I went looking and found it on Amazon. Now we are enjoying it again and the parts we missed. We may even invite the new neighbor in to view it too. He might find it helpful. We'll see the next time he comes by looking for one of his stray animals.
A most excellent and very funny collection. The entire cast is a hoot. A viewing pleasure.

Summary: A Good Presentation
Comment: I hadn't seen this series in decades and remembered it as being very funny; I'm a huge fan of anything with Penelope Keith. In this series about a suburban couple going self-sufficient, Ms. Keith plays Margo, their snobbish neighbor.
I have to admit that after one of the DVD's, the basic premise for the series started getting stale. Could just be me, but they seemed to stretch the series out for too many episodes.
However, it is amusing, and it's a good price. Video quality is good to excellent.

Summary: Great collection of a classic series
Comment: I used to watch this show when I was growing up, and seeing it again has brought back some great memories (plus now I get the more adult-oriented humor.) The show itself is just a fantastic comedy. Every character is lovable in their own way, and the humor varies from subtle to obvious. Also, as an American I enjoy listening to the language used in 70's London. You can read the synopsis yourself, I'll only say that if you enjoy class-oriented humor, and can tolerate not knowing what every word means, you'll love this show.
