5/5 'allo állo entire series 1-9
  by Angelsdtp (Central NJ, USA)
There are few consistently truly funny TV series, despite repetitive punch lines, that brings the kind of humor that can literally have one fall off the couch as this series. Brilliantly conceived, especially the Englishman who THINKS he can speak French, but using English words (or misspellings and pronunciations) this hilarious and heartwarming scenario in alleged WWII German occupied France is perpetually hilarious. The portrayal of German officers, even the Gestapo, as well as the female controlled underground, hit a tone of commonality that even our visiting German relatives cannot get enough of. Series 1-6 was a thoughtful then 70th birthday present, but we just had to order more recently released 7-9 to its completion. How this was missed in its heyday is beyond me, but is once again an excellent benefit of DVD possibilities. No one should miss out on this fabulous fun filled series, but they must be prepared to spend hours upon hours improving their health by laughing over and over. Considering that the entire cast is practically all British it is amazing how they have captured our perception the French character and accent. A very worth while investment, indeed, and one to be shared with others. There are unexpected surprises throughout, and even the replacement of characters due to untimely deaths does little to take away of the ongoing pattern. Do yourself a great favor--invest in this series. You will not regret it.

5/5 Superb

World's Best Comedy Sitcom. Everyone is good but here is my list of favorite (and not so) actors:

Great:
1) Richard Marner - Best of the lot, with a wide variety of expressions, great voice modulation.
2) Sam Kelly - wonderful
3) Carmen - pure pleasure to watch.
4) Mansi - much better than his boss played by Gibson
5) Hartman - very sexy.
6) Rose Hill - Diva

Average:
Gorden - limited set of expressions
Michelle - same expression
Siner - Good but nothing compared to Kelly.
Bostrom - gets boring not better
"Michelle" - boring
Sue - Quite an Improvement compared to Francesca.
Gibson - Good


5/5 BritCom at its best

Allo Allo is one of the best British Comedies. This series takes place in Nazi-Occupied France during WWII and is based around the French Resistance around the town of Nuvian (sp?).

Series 9 is the final season of the show and has a great conclusion. The ending wraps up the characters lives in a hilarious end.

I have been a fan of this show for 15 years and have really enjoyed the DVD sets. Great show. Unlike most British Comedies, the humor is more obvious and outrageous.

5/5 Fantastic ending to a fantastic show!

'Allo 'Allo has been one of my all-time favourite comedy series. Series Nine is the final chapter in a wonderfully written tale. I loved the ending! I especially admired the strength of Rene who in real life got into a terrible vehicular accident, ended up in a coma and thankfully recovered. He insisted that he finish the show and saw it through to the very end. I am happy to say that I purchased all nine series from Amazon and this collection is one of my most prized possessions. Truly a fantastic ending to a fantastic show! Two thumbs up! - Seema (T&T)

5/5 The final season ... Good to the end.

Finally a rather old Renee gets to run away with one of his waitresses, but the cafe is left in the care of somebody who looks just like he used to !
