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.

You can't beat these writers. A young Hugh Laurie - singing no less - playing the farce. Stephen Fry as Jeeves is untouchable. If you love the English language - this is a must. Good for families as it does not delve into sexual inuendo.

Those who have come to Hugh Laurie only through his curmudgeonly incarnation as House need to see his goofier side as Bertie Wooster, the upper class British bumbler who gets into dire strait after dire strait if not for the machinations of his valet, Jeeves. Stephen Fry is hilarious as the understated and intelligent Jeeves and Laurie is brilliant as the self-assured but obtuse and feckless bumbler. Those who love British humor and British TV and film, particularly period film, will find these very ... Read More

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.

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.

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! :)
