The six episodes in this series are solid. Funny, clever, and exciting. The authoring on this DVD goes a step further than series one, with an homage to Zero Wing, old school demo's, etc. that will nurture the inner nerd in all of us. The addition of Matt Berry is good, but at the cost of Chris Morris (who shines in series one). The out takes are hilarious and will warm you up to the actors immensely. Highlights of episodes are too numerous to list, so I would definitely recommend purchasing this collection. If you are new to IT Crowd, I would suggest viewing the YouTube clips, guaranteed to get you hooked.

5/5 Another great British invasion!

Season 2 of the IT Crowd continues the witty insanity of Roy, Moss and Jen (and the Goth guy living in the server room). The first episode is perhaps the family favorite: Roy gets caught using the handicapped bathroom and plays "disabled" for the rest of the episode. Whenever any of our "crowd" does something odd, they just roll their eyes and say "I'm disabled" and it's a funny running joke. Just for those who have not seen this, there is no disrespect at all to handicapped people; it's Roy's personality that's "disabled". This is ensemble comedy at its best. Each person's quirks come out in new and surprising ways; the episodes all seem fresh and not rehashed at all. You just have to leave all sanity at the door and come along for the ride. There is just enough real world situations and context to set off the antics and each key cast member is a master of comedic timing, facial expressions and vocal expression. Highly enjoyable!

5/5 You need to check out the extras and graphics of the DVD...esp the Street Fighter/Mortal Kombat Parody

I started watching this on a friend's recommendation on IFC and I am glad I did. It involves people from two shows I love, Black Books and Look Around You and I can say if you like that type of humor, you will like the IT Crowd. If you work in IT, you will love it more. I mean, critics say oh the "have you turned it on and off" line isn't funny...but have any of those people worked in IT? Probably not. Most computer problems can be solved by turning the computer on and off or plugging it in. And this is why it is to frustrating for IT people to talk to the normals upstairs and they seem to always be in a dark room or basement.

The actors are so funny. Moss, Roy, Jen, the ignorant bosses and the goth guy Richmond, who is locked away in the IT's dungeon. I find it witty and original. Whoever said the laughter is canned, it isn't. They show it being filmed in front of an audience, it's real sound. They truly jump into their character roles without being too cliche. The jokes come at you a mile a minute too. Even the minor characters are great. There is also a lot of Mighty Boosh crossovers here, namely Noel Fielding and Richard Ayoade...so fans of that would find this show worthwhile too. It's got about the same vibe, though the IT Crowd is a lot less surreal. Where Mighty Boosh can be hit or miss, the IT Crowd is always on target. Haven't seen even a just ok episode yet, which is amazing to me. It reminds me a lot of the wonderful Black Books, where every show was worthwhile and hilarious. It has ideas that other comedy shows don't try...like cannibalism or making light of car crash victims or doing a Russian movie parody of smokers. To me, if you have a sense of humor that is not witty or cynical, you might as watch The Big Bang Theory, which isn't that funny at all. I think they actually copied from the IT Crowd and put a hot girl into the mix instead of a Jen type, but I am so smitten by pale English girls that look normal, that appeals a lot more to me than what a "hot"girl is. To me, the hot, overly tan, dumb lead girl is so clique. Jen has smarts, even if she doesn't know what IT means. She shows it in other ways and isn't a cliche. None of the characters, even Richmond, is a total cliche. That is why it is refreshing to watch. So watch it!

But what I like most in the work put into the DVD. All the graphic scenes are well done and run for a really long time. You can get a chuckle out of the graphics as well as the episodes. The menus are awesome, the Russian graphic/cigarette Tetris is great, the Street Fighter parodies are awesome, wait for it at least four times, you won't be disappointed. Whomever did the graphic work on this really took the show into consideration. The commentary is good as well, found out a lot about the show and motivations of its writer/director.

5/5 Awesome

IT Crowd is likely the best show ever made. It is seriously very funny. Only 6 episodes per season, but they're all gems, so it's worth it. Really, it's brilliant stuff.

4/5 Very funny!

I had been told about the IT Crowd before I watched this myself but wasn't really sure what to expect. I wasn't disappointed, it is very easy to watch and VERY funny! If you want to relax with guaranteed laughter then I believe this will not disappoint....otherwise try turning it off and on again and see what happens....
