About this product

Product Information

Bernard Black (Dylan Moran) hates his job, his life, and his friends. In fact, there's not much Bernard doesn't hate, except for a glass of red wine and the chance to torment his coworker Mani (Bill Bailey). Bernard runs Black Books, a dusty secondhand bookstore whose customers he loathes; Mani is employed in the first episode to help Bernard relinquish himself of the interminable duties that clutter up his day. Fran (Tamsyn Grieg) works in a new age shop next door and frequently pops in for a glass of wine and a chat. This first series of the show provides six half-hour episodes that deserve to rub shoulders with the very best U.K. sitcoms to have emerged over the years. Moran and Bailey make a great double act, delivering the tightly written script (by Moran and FATHER TED co-writer Graham Linehan) with consummate ease, while Grieg does an admirable job of diffusing the tensions that rise between Bernard and Mani. Three series' of the show were shot, but this is the best of the lot, and a great place to witness some of the U.K.'s finest comic talents.

    Cynical? Hilarious? Not crude? Black Books, You'll die laughing.

    There is nothing that tops Black Books. OMG. The height of british comical cynicism. 3 helpless nuts trying to get thru life. I watched it again and again.

  • Good sketches to make you laugh

    I have watched the first and second of these comedy series and the second seemed funnier than the first. Nice laughs and genuine people I believe.

  • Grows on you

    The first episode turned me off a bit because the characters seemed so...well, static; however, after finishing the first series I can honestly say that they certainly grew on me. The plot is enjoyable and I'm thinking of buying the second series. If you've seen it before and enjoyed it, I would recommend buying the complete series to save money, rather that buying all three series separately.

  • Black Books is bloody good fun!

    I bought this after borrowing from the library. Haven't watched a sit-com that has made me laugh like this.. ever! I rarely buy DVDs but had to have in my collection it was so bloody good. There is nothing to dislike about this series. Drinking, smoking, and rudeness with no apologies. Awesome!
