Description
Bertie Wooster is feeling a bit shy of the mark when his new valet reports for duty, bringing with him a much-needed cure for the effects of the previous night's excesses. On the strength of this sterling debut, Jeeves is formally retained, and the unsuspecting servant is thrown headlong into the glorious mix of overbearing aunts, unbidden guests, friends in need and romantic entanglements that is Bertie's lot in life. To millions of devoted fans, P.G. Wodehouse's "Jeeves and Wooster" stories are a delightful obsession, an irresistible and irreverent romp through the drawing rooms of Edwardian England's tweedy elite. Now, these comic masterpieces come to life in acclaimed productions with an extraordinary cast that features Hugh Laurie (Sense and Sensibility, Strapless) as the well-meaning but dim aristocrat Bertie Wooster, and Stephen Fry (Wilde, Cold Comfort Farm) as Jeeves, his hilariously arch and resourceful valet. This 8-DVD collector's set includes 23 digitally restored and remastered episodes.

 Gets Better adnd Better August 7, 2008
The First Season Volume 1 was a bit slow, but after that it was just so funny. Very addictive and hilarious. Stephen Fry is such a class act.
 Classic! July 2, 2008
This collection captures Stephen Fry and Hugh Laurie at their best. Splendid farce that bites at its subject matter without going overboard or losing the joy of it. Great for all ages but it is best for those of us who have been around long enough to catch some of the more obscure references.
Take a chance, you will love it! June 27, 2008
When i purchased this set i had never seen an episode, but i was familiar with actors, the set was at a bargain, so i took a chance, and i am glad i did.The settings are wonderful, no expense spared and the acting is, of course, top notch, wish i had a Jeeves!To the casual viewer that might be put off by the time period and might think the show to be along the lines of a Merchant-Ivory film,trust me , it's not and thank God for that! :)
Perfect June 12, 2008
It's a shame that all A&E dvds don't have subtitles, even in english. In spite of that, I've loved. I've always thought that they'd be perfect for these roles. Mr. Fry as Jeeves and Mr. Laurie as Bertie. There is no other word for this show: perfect!
Fun for the whole family June 6, 2008
There is nothing I can add about the brilliant zaniness of these shows so I will only tell you that we watch them with our daughter, a 10-year-old, who enjoys them just a much as we do. It's a rare show that the whole family can TRULY enjoy, that is, it's smart enough for the adults and yet isn't inappropriate or incomprehensible for the children.
