Friends: Complete Series 4 - New Edition [1995]

Childrens Toy Shop > DVD > Comedy
starring: Jennifer Aniston, Courteney Cox, Lisa Kudrow, Matt Le Blanc, Matthew Perry

October 25, 2004
I am a great fan of Friends and although this isn't the best season out of the ten the mayhem and jokes are excellent and still intelligent and witty. The first episode (The One With The Jellyfish) begins with a recap of what happened at the end of series 3 with Ross dating a bald woman but falling in love with Rachel at the same time, leaving him stuck between whether to choose Rachel or his bald lover. Also, Phoebe finds out that her real mother is actually still alive but Phoebe wants nothing to do with her.
The episodes in Season 4 are as follows:
1. The One With The Jellyfish
Ross falls asleep whilst reading an 18-page letter from Rachel and when confronted by her, has to pretend to agree with what she wrote. Phoebe and ... Read More:

Weeds - Series 3 - Complete

Childrens Toy Shop > DVD > Comedy
starring: Elizabeth Perkins, Mary Louise Parker, Justin Kirk

May 26, 2008
Is it possible for a phenomenal show to get even better? Yes, Weeds season 3 proves that it is possible - believe it or not!!

The season starts out right where we left Nancy and Conrad in the weed-less growhouse at the wrong end of a lot of guns. Nancy's son, Silas, has stolen the weed because he wants in on the family business and he is pulled over in his car with the weed in the truck, curtesy of Celia Hodes and some stolen cameras. Meanwhile, Nancy's brother-in-law puts out an Amber-alert for Nancy's younger son - and yes - it gets worse!!

The beauty is that Weeds still has a realistic feel to it and entire growhouses full of wonderfully wicked, dark humour.

There are so many aspects to compliment. Season ... Read More:

Last Of The Summer Wine - Series 13-14 - Complete

Childrens Toy Shop > DVD > Comedy
by: Last of the Summer Wine

December 26, 2008
Online retailers are keeping very quiet about what episodes will be on the Series 11 & 12 DVD which will be out soon and which will precede the subject DVD (Series 13 & 14). And we do realise that for some reason Amazon does not list the episodes on a particular boxset. However, we do know:
The so-called Series 9 & 10 DVD contained only Series 9 (to the genuine Last of the Summer Wine scholar).
There is strong evidence that the so-called Series 11 & 12 DVD will contain what all the literature defines as Series 10 & 11.
Ergo, it is a fair bet that the so-called Series 13 & 14 boxset will contain what the vast majority of sources and authorities define as Series 12 & 13.

It will contain particularly ... Read More:

Scrubs : Complete Season 4

Childrens Toy Shop > DVD > Comedy
by: Scrubs

September 18, 2006
Scrubs is now well established, and i am a massive fan, but now i'm watching the final series and cant help to look back and think "Why is it not as good anymore?"

The fourth season, for me, was the peak of Scrubs. We got to know the characters a lot better and developed relationships with them and therefore shared their feelings. Plus of course the Janitor got a much larger role!!! We were also treated with better story lines, creative camera shots and stunts, and of course guset stars like Heather Graham, Colin Farrell, Tara Reid and Matthew Perry. Not to forget Zach Braff having the oppertunity to direct a couple of episodes. All in all definately the best Season form the entire season, statr to finish!

The Mask [1994]

Childrens Toy Shop > DVD > Comedy
starring: Jim Carrey, Peter Riegert, Peter Greene, Amy Yasbeck, Richard Jeni
directed by: Chuck Russell

July 18, 2005
This is Jim Carrey on top form: restrained but manic as Stanley Ipkiss, and totally unstoppable as The Mask, without being as sickening as he was in the second Ace Ventura film. The plot is fairly simple, and all the better for it. The bad guys are disposable but their presence is felt nonetheless. And Cameron Diaz (of whom I've never been a fan) is undeniably smoldering in her debut role. The one liners are zany, for lack of a better word, and for fans of cartoon humour this is a must.

Mrs Doubtfire [1994]

Childrens Toy Shop > DVD > Comedy
starring: Robin Williams, Sally Field, Pierce Brosnan, Harvey Fierstein, Polly Holliday
directed by: Chris Columbus

July 30, 2001
After throwing a secret party for his son Chris's 12th birthday , Daniel Hillard (Robin Williams) lands himself in hot water with his wife Miranda (Sally Field) and she demands a divorce.

When Miranda wants to hire a housekeeper to look after the children, Daniel is outraged that Miranda would rather let a stranger look after the children than him so with a little help from his make-up artist brother, Daniel turns up to an interview as Mrs Doubtfire, a british nanny who has 15 years experience under her belt and is hired on the spot.

Mrs Doubtfire is a fantastic family film that is funny, sad and touching all at the same time.

Friends: Complete Series 8 - New Edition

Childrens Toy Shop > DVD > Comedy
starring: Jennifer Aniston, Courteney Cox, Lisa Kudrow, Matthew Perry, David Schwimmer

October 25, 2004
There are funnier things than Friends on television, but nothing as long-lasting and consistently funny. In Season 8, the acting and directing (as well as visual quality) have improved from the early series, whilst it has lost none of its inventiveness and sparkle.
The season kicks off right after Monica & Chandler's "I do" and with the finding that Rachel is with child. Her pregnancy comes up in all 24 episodes. From the identity of the father ("Oh no- don't tell me it's her!"), to the possibility of marriage ("What, because that's your answer to everything?") and breaking the news to the parents (I particularly loved Rach explaining to her father why Ross won't marry her: "He says I'm damaged goods"). The question comes up: can the pair commit themselves ... Read More:
