4.0 out of 5 stars Beat it!, 1 Dec 2005
By Louise Stanley (Reading, Berkshire United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)   
More mayhem with Govan's answer to white trash!

This is the third series, and the show is into its stride, with more and more crystalisation of themes and characterisation. Jamesie and Ella try for a child, Mary suffers from a life-threatening hospital companion and gets a job with a lecherous boss, and Rab goes through the motions in more than one way, enlisting a vet's syringe and a transexual barmaid in his romps across Glasgow's seamier side. Burnie is designated talented, and he and Gash are seduced by fish and chips on the seashore by posh relatives Shug and Phoebe while Rab frets about his wife's health. The best moment however has to be the Govan Mothercare and all its merchandise - wouldn't want to spoil it here, but watch out for what's under Jamesie's jacket - a moment of pure genius in fleshing out the milieu.

The best thing about this series is that it is not too outspoken, it shows rather than tells. The problem with some sitcoms is that they dip too heavily into politics and treatises on justice spout from unlikely lips, but Rab is social without being socialist. Rab's return from jail provokes rebellion from his family - against scum..."Forward with Britain, backwards with Govan, and sideways with Dunoon". It's always funny even when spouting rhetoric - just the panacea for the diet of self-righteous and "everything's happy now but look how dreadful it was in the past" comedy elsewhere. People are always - people. Rab will always be - Rab, regardless who's in Number 10.

Just remember though - join the system and we give you a cigarette - cause trouble and we give you the wheelchair...

5.0 out of 5 stars I WILL TELL YA THIS BOY!!!!, 11 May 2007
By Christopher Bishop "Chris Bishop" (Youngstown, Ohio United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Well what can ya say about Rab?.
Ive always loved watching rab from when the first series started way back over 11 years ago and before that when rab and jamsie were just a skit on the naked video shows.
I was recently back in the uk and while i was showing my American wife around London i mannaged to sneak into the Virgin megstore in picadilly circus and found series 3-4.
I couldnt resist buying it as i have already purchaced 1-2 plus a seasonal greet in box set from Amazon.
Anyway none of my British family can understand rab let alone my American one but that dont matter as ive allways understood him totaly LOL.
The series just gets better and better even though the sad loss of wee bernie in series 4 and the addition of screech which i thought never could fill wee bernies shoes.
Anyway i will most definately be ordering series 5 through Amazon very soon.
Rab is an aquired taste you love him or you dont well im just very glad hes now on DVD so i can again enjoy his sage view on life HELllloooooo!!!.

5.0 out of 5 stars Pure brilliant!, 14 Mar 2007
By T. Bobley "Tibley Bobley" (UK) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)   
It's hard to explain how this series has hooked me so completely. The Govan accent and lingo are sometimes hard to follow for people like me, who come from way doown soouth - but it's worth the struggle. Comedy with depth and bite! Rab's my number one anti-hero. He describes himself as "scum", but it's obvious he's not scum because scum always rises to the top and he stays stubbornly at the bottom. The series 3 DVD has a wonderful little something that the series 1 and 2 DVDs lacked: it has *subtitles*. How brilliant is that? I can now understand almost 90% of what's said. It was excellent when I could only understand about 50% of it but now hardly any of it goes over my head. So when Rab gets out of prison and visits his local, I can make out the whole conversation regarding social labelling from the subtitles. His friends are no longer content to be called scum, they prefer to be called "the underclass". Rab's response is typical Rab: "Where else, but in Govan would it be a promotion tae be called the underclass? ... Do you know who christened you the underclass? The same sinister b*st*ards that changed Windscale tae Sellafield!"

Intelligent scripts, sparkling dialogue, fine acting, great series. And subtitles (thank you)!
