Beanbioca As Good As It Gets

Josephina Great story, amazing characters, superb action, enthralling cinematography. Yes, this is something I am glad I spent money on.

daniellouthain The title says it all. The humor is spot on and very much so in the vein of Merchant's past work. If you can handle cringe humor like Curb Your Enthusiasm, The Office (UK), Peep Show, Todd Margaret, etc. you'l enjoy this. Merchant's character is barely likable for most of the series, but he brings a charm to the role and an earnest naivety that reflects the struggle of a British man from small towns trying to adapt to LA life. The arching plot is very formulaic unfortunately. He chases stunning yet vapid women with whom he has nothing in common while there's the perfect woman for him right under his nose. There are plenty of subplots that make up for this, and there's a nice theme that ties these plot lines together. There were a couple recurring characters that could have been explored more in the first series. Overall it's worth your time if you have it. Don't move it to the top of your list, however.

omart94 I never expected that Stephen Merchant was going to be that good an actor! I've always enjoyed the Stephen Merchant, Ricky Gervias, and Karl Pilkington partnership, yet of the three, the spot light was always on Karl and Ricky. Through watching the Ricky Gervias Show, I came to love the three of them. Ricky the bold, immature yet eerily sophisticated man, Karl the simple bloke who liked to question every thing, and finally Stephen, Ricky's right hand man. There was never much depth into Stephens character. I (being the curious person that I am) couldn't wait to see Stephen make his own show (away from the stand up comedy genre). At the beginning I was a bit skeptical, but then I saw how well Stephen Merchant handled his character. Pritchet is a selfish, arrogant and socially awkward middle aged man who always tries too hard; basically one of the worst people you can ever meet, however somewhere along the series you begin to feel sympathy for him, you see beyond the selfish douche-bag wannabe persona, you see a struggling man who has ambition. You feel sorry for him, but you know he deserves it. You admire him, you loath him. You think you are better than him, and because of that he inspires you. He is in many ways an anti-hero.

pcallow-998-684937 a comedy that grew on me as it evolved, just watched the season finale, a bit clichéd, but it was funny. the song at the end is haunting me as I know it but cant place the name maybe a 10cc song ??I can see it that in the end, he finds that she is the one he's been looking for all along etc.. funniest line in the finale-the guy in the wheelchair outside the club "you gonna be long as its cold and I cant feel my legs" :)I look forward to season 2, and more from Stuart Pritchard ! Stephen Merchants writing is top class, - i'm hoping for good things. once again we see British comedy coming to the forefront !

pjmbdm Just discovered this hilarious series. I am telling everyone about Hello Ladies. The cast is simply wonderful and every episode is well written and so darned funny! Please continue this for many more seasons......we are hooked! Stuart is such a funny character and all his cohorts just make this such an original series. The writers just get these awkward situations so perfect and the actors expressions just make it right on. It's very difficult to write comedy that keeps the laughs coming throughout, but this one does and the music is also right on. Please please keep this series on....guaranteed to make all who watch it become fans!
