Excellent Comedy Series
I've watched series 1 and 2 of Allo Allo. I enjoy many of the British series, and this one doesn't disappoint. Original plot and every episode has some zany dilemma the characters have to get themselves out of in the funniest of ways. I would never have known that a world war II sitcom could be so funny. If you enjoy British comedy, this is a must-have series for you! The series is based on a French restaurant owner during World War II who is constantly trying to balance his love affairs without his wife finding out, while simultaneously keeping the German soldiers happy along with the French resistance who requires his assistance. This plot setting allows for many unique and funny episodes based on many problems the main character gets himself into such as hiding a famous painting of "the madonna with the big boobies" for a german soldier.It isn't 100% clean family fun, as there are references to more mature audience content such as sexuality, homosexuality and prostitution. Most references are funny, subtle, and in good taste.Later episodes usually start with the main character giving a brief synopsis of what happened in the previous episode, so the episodes flow together very well. This is one of the series which is best watched in order or you do miss some of references to prior episodes.

Anything is Pissable!!-The Idiot thinks he knows French!!
The Policeman Steals the series! If you saw season one then you would have been chomping at the bit to get season 2. My word, is this good comdey or what? If you dont understand Irony then somewhere along the line when it hits you that the Policeman is using some naughty english behind the mask of speaking french and that the "french" can hardly understand him then when you are finished rubbing the tears of laughter from your eyes..you will see that ALLO ALLO is simply good parody,sarcasm,wit,saucinessand even down right corniness at times in a successful mission to get you laughing!The puns, situation comedy and plot thickens better than onion soup in this sweet follow up to season one...I need to order the other 3 as my friends and I have been having fantastic movie weekends watching ALLO ALLO...Join my friends and me and laugh at the British, the French and the Germans without causing an international incident...get this series now!!

Hilarious show!
I hadn't seen this program in many years. I was lucky to find the first series at Half-Priced Books. After watching it, I realized how much I've missed the show. In the process of ordering all of the other series.

Great British Comedy Series
This is one of the funniest British comedy series. It is set in occupied France during World War II, a time and place where there was very little to laugh about. This series pokes fun at everyone, The characters are great: a French innkeeper who is constantly unfaithful to his wife, two inept German officers who are actually quite likeable, a couple of very stupid British airmen, the French Resistance, the Communist Resistance and so on. A bigger bunch of dysfunctional characters you cannot imagine. I practically fall off my chair when I watch this, I'm laughing so hard. If you love sBritish comedy, don't miss 'Allo 'Allo.

'Allo, 'Allo
Wonderful and highly entertaining madcap comedy, set in occupied France during WWII, with twists and turns that boggle the mind, and keep the entire family in splits... we have watched the show OVER and OVER and OVER again and laughed till we cried and almost died. Unfortunately only series 1-4 are currently available for American consumers. Can hardly wait for the remaining series 5-9. Very well done. Extremely clever situations that lead to more complex and hilarious scenarios all of which seem to have been conceived by a brilliant mind. Excellent value for the money. The all-British cast with their French and German accents are brilliant. The German Army and Gestapo portrayals are nothing short of spectacular.

All you need is popcorn!
It had been a long time since I had watched any of the series, and I thoroughly enjoyed it. The characters are goofy, and not particularly realistic (at least in my world!) but they make you laugh. There is no sex or violence dispute it taking place during the war, and dispute the efforts of Rene's two waitresses who, for some strange reason find Rene a very sexual magnet. This video is easy to watch and a good laugh for the whole family.
