Men Behaving Badly 20th Anniversary The Complete Collection

“I shouldn’t admit to this, but I’ve been watching the Men Behaving Badly repeats on TV and laughing like a git!” - Martin Clunes

Wahey mates! The “greatest sitcom in the BBC’s history” and a true benchmark for every sitcom that followed, the sharp, brilliantly observant and consistently laugh-out-loud funny “Men Behaving Badly” comes to DVD in a fantastic 20th Anniversary collection that, for the first time, brings together every episode of all six classic series along with the four specials and the rarely-seen Comic Relief sketches.

Key talent:

Martin Clunes (Doc Martin; Reggie Perrin; William And Mary), Neil Morrissey (Me And Mrs. Jones; Line Of Duty; Waterloo Road), Caroline Quentin (Life Of Riley; Blue Murder; Life Begins), Leslie Ash (Holby City; Where The Heart Is), writer Simon Nye (Reggie Perrin; Flushed Away; Hardware) and director Martin Dennis (Friday Night Dinner; How Not To Live Your Life; Life Of Riley; Coupling), not to mention Harry Enfield and… Kylie!

Synopsis:

Flatmates Gary and Tony are your typical “lads”, a pair of irresponsible, politically incorrect and seriously juvenile men who refuse to grown up and whose idea of heaven is sitting on the sofa, drinking lager, talking about women and putting the world to rights while watching Kylie Minogue videos on the TV. The one sobering influence in their lives is Dorothy, a sensible, sharp-witted nurse and Gary’s long-suffering girlfriend. But the dynamics between this trio of friends soon change when a gorgeous blonde moves into the flat upstairs and Tony falls desperately in lust.

We like it because:

An unmissable TV viewing fixture during its initial broadcast during the 1990s and deservedly voted the best sitcom in the BBC’s history at the corporation’s 60th anniversary celebrations, the truly classic “Men Behaving Badly” still stands as one of the funniest TV series of all time, thanks in no small part to Simon Nye’s brilliant writing. This eight-disc release features every MBB moment ever broadcast and amounts to over 20 hours of unreconstructed male merriment. It’s time to get the beers in, order a pizza and watch the telly!

Special Features:

* All six complete series of the show including the rarely-seen first series starring Harry Enfield.

* The 1997 Christmas Special, “Jingle Balls”.

* The Final Trilogy of feature-length specials, “Last Orders”.

* The Comic Relief sketches from Red Nose Day 1997 and 1999, “Kylie” and “The Lost Pilot”.

* A brand new BBC Radio 4 documentary on the show.

* Outtakes, bloopers and more.


Men Behaving Badly: 20th Anniversary The Complete Collection is out on DVD Now! Order yours here.

To Win!

So, it's been 20 years since the show was aired - again, how time flies. If Men Behaving Badly was a film, no doubt it would've been re-made and 're-imagined' at least twice by now! So, what would the show be like if it was remade and who would play the parts of the two badly behaved men and the annoying, moany women?

Have some fun with this! It doesn't have to be realistic - in fact, the funnier and more outlandish the better! How about a horror themed take on the show? Or maybe a superhero one, with Batman And Robin as the two leads?

Don't worry if you've never seen the show before, either. This would make a fantastic Christmas present. Which characters would you like to see come together to make a hilarious sitcom? A sitcom about Hitler maybe...oh wait, that's been done .

So, just have some fun, grab a few beers and some naughty magazines and join in!

There's no limit to the amount of posts you enter - each one will be counted as a separate entry, so the more you enter - the bigger chance of winning you have.

Winners will be announced on Sunday (11th November) where I'll be picking the funniest three entries.

GOOD LUCK,

Kyle

Well a show like that made today would more or less be the same except the laugh-track would be about 70 percent louder and happen about 50 percent more. Regardless if their was a joke or not.

Nothing would need to happen each episode because commercial breaks happen every 10 minutes so nobody can follow what happens anyways.

Oh and one of the guys would be a gorilla obviously played by Robin Williams and one of the wives a talking horse played by Sarah Jessica Parker (again obviously).

Other cast would include about everyone who's popular in sitcoms nowadays like Chevy Chase (who suddenly is "in" again) and Neil Patrick Harris.

Oh and it would be a crime drama or a cooking show since that's all the latest rage.

A group of swingers living together, who get into serious hijinks with each other.

Ryan Gosling plays the cool dude of the group who just so happens to be into Godzilla fetish porn
Jeffrey Combs plays a scientist who does crazy experiments in the basement
Fran Drescher is the annoying woman who gets into all the problems
Natalie Portman plays the nymphomaniac comedy relief of the women
Charlie Sheen is their neighbor as himself... enough said.
Written and directed by Alejandro Jodorowsky to make it as weird as possible
And Ashton Kutcher has absolutely nothing to do with this at all.

Nicholas Cage & Nicholas Cage star as Gary & Tony two flatmates who used to be movie stars and made fantastic films but somewhere along the line made a remake of The Wicker Man and their careers have never been the same again.

A hot female neighbour moves in (Nicholas Cage) and Tony (Nic Cage) falls head over heels in love with her, hilarity ensues! Only Gary's girlfriend Dorothy (Brian Blessed) can keep these boys in check.

Now for the first time in Hi Def you can rewatch the infamous Wicker This episode "Not the Bee's, Not the Bee's", Gary Rider: Gary pee's fire in 3D, Drive Mild-tempered & the classic Shot his load in 60 Seconds.

Here's a montage of the best moments from the show!
