Summary: Don't start with the second DVD!
Review: I, thinking this was along the lines of Mr. Bean or Blackadder, jumped to the second DVD and watched what ended up being a rather boring episode.BUT when I watched the first DVD and saw the plot carry over and integrity the bits in the second DVD became funnier because information was carried over from the earlier episodes. The continuity was great! If you're a Mr. Bean or Blackadder fan you'll be disappointed in the humor. Very dry, very insider-british. Being an American I'm sure I missed out on some of the jokes. Both actors are excellent in their parts. They are kind of an upper crust version of the Andy Griffith show - one goofy guy and one smart one getting him out of his messes.

Summary: Jeeves all the day long!
Review: It is so sad to note that most Americans haven't had the pleasure of reading about Jeeves, indeed the wisest and sagest of all of the butlerian mode. This review comes with a warning...it will cause excessive knee slapping. END

Summary: Not as good as season one but still FUNNY!
Review: It only took one episode to addict me to Jeeves and Wooster. This season finds our heroes once again in and out of scrapes, most of them matrimonial. The fact that some of the actors are different is alarming at first, especially when you watch the two seasons back to back but the replacemnts are very good and soon it does not distract at all. My two favorite episodes are kidnapped, in which Bertie is almost forced into a shotgun wedding and The episode in which Aunt Agatha tries to set poor Bertie up with a young lady who happens to be a confidence trickster. Of course, brillian Jeeves saves the day. The DVD offers no extras except chapter search but the quality of the picture is good and DVDs are very convenient. If you've never seen Jeeves and Wooster don't be afraid to take the plunge. It's a lovely bit of British humor.

Summary: Great adaptation let down by poor DVD transfer
Review: It's hard to describe how perfect these adaptations are: Stephen Fry and Hugh Laurie are flawless as suave manservant and feckless dandy, respectively. Well cast supporting actors, fantastic locations and a crackling script from Clive Exton. Pure brilliance. But... all of this is tarnished by a poor transfer to DVD. It looks like a cheap job done quickly, with noticeable blocking and grain -- especially in low contrast scenes. Sadly, the better the DVD and TV you have, the more obvious the poor quality of the transfer. With so many excellent film->DVD transfers it's hard to understand why the publisher did such a poor job. There's really no excuse for such shoddy work. It's a real shame -- save your pennies and get the VHS video -- the quality should be about the same.

Summary: Hilarity for the whole family!
Review: Non-stop British hilarity and fun. Dim and good-hearted Bertie Wooster meets his perfect foil in the intelligent and imperious Jeeves. The Depression never hits and the war never comes in these light-hearted and innocent romps. If your whole family likes to laugh, don't hesitate to buy this set!

Summary: Funny!
Review: P.G. Wodehouse's Wooster and Jeeves are brought to life amazingly in these six shows. The shows run a close parallel to the books, although the TV series isn't up to par, it's still the best thing I've ever seen adapted from writing! Jeeves Saves The Cowcreamer, and A Plan For Gussie both run together, and involve the Bassets, and Sir. Roderick Spode, the amature dictator who runs around the streets of London in footerbaggers. Pearls Mean Tears is one of my personal favorites, and will be sure to make even the toughest egg crack into a smile. Hugh Laurie and Stephen Fry are, as always, wonderful portraying the Bertie Wooster and the all-knowing Jeeves. A must for anyone who appreciates a clean laugh!

Summary: Almost as good as season one...
Review: Stephen Fry is the first actor ever to capture the real Jeeves, and Hugh Laurie makes Bertie utterly plausible, in spite of the absurd ways he tends to land himself in the bullion. These dvds must be in your collection if you love Wodehouse; they're worth repeated viewings, as every detail is a treat. Make sure to get season one. The very first episode manages to introduce you to the lunacy to come, and Bertie's utter dependence on Jeeves in only a few scenes. See you at the Drones!

Summary: Make this set a part of your home collection.
Review: The apogee of biting British wit, P. G. Wodehouse's tales of of an abysmally dim yet lovable Bertram Wooster and his unflappable valet Jeeves are fully realised on film. Hugh Laurie and Stephen Fry animate Wooster and Jeeves with eerie ease and uncommon comedic timing. A must-have for lovers of NBC's "Frasier". END

Summary: Wonderful British comedy
Review: The titles listed on this DVD version are: "Jeeves saves the cow creamer", "A plan for Gussie", "Pearls mean tears", "Jeeves in the country", "Kidnapped!" and "Jeeves the matchmaker". The sound (Dolby digital 2.0) is much better than in the VHS version I saw. There are no special features except scene selection.

Summary: Excellent Stuff
Review: These six episodes are best described as great, great, great, great, great, and so-so. The humor is excellent. Hugh Laurie is very much fun to watch. And they hold up well under repeated viewing.
It's hard to pick a favorite, but the one bad one is "Jeeves the Match-Maker". It is not put together well, and Bingo and Tuppy are perhaps Bertie's least likable chums. Still, it gives us some vintage Hugh Laurie moments.
"Jeeves Saves the Cow Creamer" is excellent ... very much fun from beginninmg to end. "Jeeves in the Country" is great too, and it has an excellent ending (with Bertie getting slugged). "Pearls Mean Tears" is, I think, my favorite. The ending, with Biffie disrupting the theater show, puts it a tad over the others (for me). "A Plan for Gussie", the follow-up to "Jeeves Saves the Cow Creamer" is a continuation that maintains the high level of comedy of its predecessor. And "Kidnapped" (these are the titles as I know them ... I've seen them under different names however) is an excellent follow-up to "Jeeves in the Country", with Bertie forced to sing "Lady of Spain" in a very funny bit.
But, my impression is that Season 2 is by far the best of the 4 seasons (though I haven't seen them all). It certainly is the one getting the most attention as far as sellers are concerned. There are a lot of good laughs in it ... and, if nothing else, you are forced to pull out the dictionary and learn a few new words.
