Summary of "Every Stoopid Episode - I Hope You're Satisfied, Thatcher!": The Young Ones was a rather different television show, which broke all the rules that sitcoms built up since the days of I Love Lucy. In its own way, it was a pioneering effort by a group of people with extraordinary talent. It's a brilliant show, simply brilliant. It won't be to everyone's taste, but I recommend that everyone, whether you're a Young One or just a Young One At Heart, should give it a chance.
This DVD set won't win any awards or be considered "demo" material to show off your home theater system. In fact, some fans of this series will be considerably put out by the edits I mentioned. And, I agree, that gives one pause. Nevertheless, I do recommend this set. Fans of The Young Ones who found it "laugh-out-loud funny" back in the 80's should take this opportunity to rediscover the show, and enjoy it all over again. If you've never seen the show before, you should definitely give it a chance. Especially if you're a fan of off-the-wall humor (AbFab, anyone?). (read entire review)
