2.0 out of 5 stars "Punch lines" without jokes, 11 April 2005
By A Customer
I've been a big Rick & Ade fan for 20 years, "Young Ones," "Filthy Rich," "Bottom," etc. Rick & Ade are funny because they put themselves into awkward, ironic, and tasteless situations which become triggerpoints for their unconventional slapstick comedy. This DVD is what it purports to be, a compendium of material from the early days to present. However, it is a comedy equivalent to reading the phonebook so you can say you know everyone in town. Context is missing. There is no comic timing. It boils down to incident after incident, minute after minute, of random punches, kicks, and misused appliances, with no set-up. Could be likened to what Richie and Eddie would see if their lives flashed before them. However, probably best viewed if you are a massive Rick & Ade fan, know the material, and are told you have 2 hours left to live.

2.0 out of 5 stars What's The Point???, 29 May 2005
Bottom is without doubt one of the best comedies of the 90's, but this DVD seems to be meaningless, yes it does show some of the best bits of all Rik and Ade have done. But if you are a Bottom fan you'll have all the DVD's and videos so this DVD is just a cash in. Buy it if you are a first time watcher but otherwise I wouldn't waste your money!

1.0 out of 5 stars Bottom: Mindless DVD, 4 Jan 2005
Bottom, in my opinion, is one of the best BBC comedies ever, as is the Young Ones, and Guest House Paradiso is a work of genius. Still, this DVD completely dissappoints. The Mayall/Edmondson comedies were made up of the fights and the jokes, and this compilation contains only one ingredient of the mix which made the series' so brilliant.

It contains scenes from:

The Young Ones, The Comic Strip Presents..., Bottom, each Bottom Live show and others.

It could be great, with maybe a few interviews, outtakes, the usual DVD stuff, but it has none. No extras at all.

I'm glad I got it as a present, because had I wasted my money on it I would have been very upset.

A better purchase would be The Best of Bottom or The Young Ones, and Guest House Paradiso is a must own for every Bottom fan, but take my advice, if you enjoy Bottom, this will utterly dissappoint you.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not the best one of theirs
I was quite disappointed with this DVD. I love Bottom but with this one they seemed to stuggle and was "more of the same". I would recommend this one of theirs.
