Fans of Hugh Laurie’s prickly, sardonic House character may not realize that Laurie started as a primarily comic actor. And nowhere has Laurie been sillier than as Bertie Wooster in Jeeves & Wooster, the British TV series based on the famed P.G. Wodehouse characters. The brilliant Stephen Fry (a longtime Laurie pal and co-star) delivers a pitch-perfect Jeeves. Bertie Wooster is the classic young British man of means, blessed with a kind heart but a serious common-sense deficit. Jeeves is his hilariously arch and resourceful valet, a “Gentleman’s Gentleman” without equal who sees Bertie through the never-ending swirl of hopeless old friends, indomitable aunts, unbidden guests and romantic entanglements that dominate his life. This DVD box set includes all 23 episodes of the acclaimed series. Over 9 hours on 8 DVDs.
“Nearly 20 hours of highbrow humor and lowbrow pranks, subtle spit takes and silly sight gags combine with fantastic feats of linguistic dexterity to provide endless entertainment.” — Christel Loar, PopMatters
