Great Stuff, but No "Hey Jude!!!" - Reviewed on 2007-10-14

I love Fry and Laurie, I own all four discs in this series. They are one of the greatest British Comedy Teams ever, right up there with Pete and Dud, Smith and Jones, and the Two Ronnies. Season Three features some of the best stuff they've ever done: "From Here to Just Over There", "Tahitian Kitchen", "The Red Hat of Patferrick", and "The Model Advert" are priceless.

That said, one of the greatest skits they ever did was when Laurie was singing 'Hey Jude' in a high-pitched chipmunk voice. Fry joined in the 'Na Na Na's' with a low bull-frog voice. While this is boldly advertised on the British release of this DVD, it's been completely cut from this version! I know the Beatles' are tough to get the royalties from, but this a bloody shame. Thank God for YouTube!

Season three of Fry and Laurie is absolutely, brilliantly hilarious! Better than season two (in my opinion) and more on par with the comic consistency of season one.

When I purchased A Bit of Fry and Laurie Season 3 (and 4) I was incredibly happy. I had waited for ages for it to come to the states, and when it finally did, I ordered it quickly, and it came within the given dates of delivery. What can I say about A Bit of Fry and Laurie except soupy twist!
as funny as season 2 and most of season 1 - Reviewed on 2007-07-30

These guys don't disappoint, even the third time around. The only thing funnier than Hugh Laurie in drag is Fry attempting an American accent. The usual wordplay, absurdist hijinks, and oddball sketches abound, with just one of the highlights being the "kickin' a**" song--hilarious!
These sketches differ from those in seasons 1 and 2 only in that the opening promo is different and the ending features Fry inventing a bizarre cocktail while Laurie plays piano and makes a horn sound with his mouth.
If you love these two, rent Black Adder and the whole Jeeves and Wooster series as well. It would be heavenly if Fry could just guest star on House.....
