Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Plum must be turning in his grave!
Review: Unlike the first three seasons, which were nothing short of brilliant, this season seems to have lost the Wodehouse touch. The absolute low point was a madcap chase up the Empire State Building; both Bertie and Jeeves were completely out of character. I got through the set just once and re-sold it almost immediately. I highly recommend the first three sets, but if you're a Wodehouse purist, pass on this fiasco.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Great content, dodgy video.
Review: Who can argue that the content is just short of brilliant? One couldn't pick two better actors to bring Wodehouse to life. But while the ripping yarns are engaging, the production leaves a little to be desired and detracts from the experience. It looks like somebody set up an old reel to reel in a dark room, pointed a camera at the screen and burned that to DVD. Come on, we've been living with DVDs for quite a few years. Producing something of quality is what we expect from PBS, right?
