Summary: Terrible Canned Laughter
Review: The entire Black Adder series will leave you grinning for days. The only hazardis that at any time you may find yourself suddenly bursting into unprovoked laughter when you recall one of Atkinson's lines. If this happens during an important meeting, a romantic encounter or church, you might find yourself embarrassed

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Rowan Atkinson at his finest

Summary: Simply Unmissable
Review: The final series 'Black Adder Goes Forth' is my favourite of all the Black Adder Series. This is not to say the others are no good, they are fantastic. 'Black Adder Goes Forth' however, is simply supreme comedy. On my copy of the DVD there are no special features whatever, just a simple episode, scene and language group of options. Rowan Atkinson is the undisputed star of all the series and 'Black Adder Goes Forth' is no exception. A standout in this series, however is Stephen Fry who plays General Melchett. The writers, Richard Curtis and Ben Elton, have taken a lot of swipes at the British Army's WW1 leadership incompetence and the futility of the 'Great War'. (good job too, as millions of men died at the expense of the British Aristocracy). This is a memorable comedy series, with some of the funniest scenes I have ever seen on television. Bravo Black Adder.

Summary: Wonderful British Comedy at its Best!
Review: This is a hilairious series! Rowan Atkinson, Hugh Laurie and Tony Robinson are great in the lead roles. Their quirky adventures with Captain Darling and "Walrus Face" Melchett are wonderfully funny! There is a bit of a weak episode when they learn to fly, but "General Hospital" is undoubtedly the best of the series and more than makes up for it.

Summary: THE BEST OF BLACK ADDER
Review: This is arguably the best of the Black Adder series. It represents British comedy at its best. Monty pythonist humour, with great repartee, brings home the futility of the first world war. This is Baldrick at his best. As one American friend put it "that Black Adler is great!"

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Hilarious!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Review: This is the best one in the series. If you like comedy you'll like this.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Terrible Canned Laughter
Review: This was a wonderful series, but the canned laughter on this DVD is not the same as when broadcast and absulutely awful.
