The Good Life in its native England, the much-beloved 1970s Britcom
Good Neighbors wrapped up its delightful run during a fourth season, which was capped by a visit from Queen Elizabeth herself. Led by the incomparable Richard Briers (
Monarch of the Glen), the perfect cast of
Good Neighbors continues the story of Tom (Briers) and Barbara (Felicity Kendal) Good, a middle-class, suburban couple who gave up their jobs, possessions, and creature comforts (such as electricity) to promote "self-sufficiency." Turning their gardens into farmland, the pair raise pigs, goats, and chickens, grow their own produce, and even take a whack at making their own clothes. Their neighbors and best friends, Jerry (Paul Eddington) and Margo (Penelope Keith) Leadbetter, remain mystified at the Goods' embrace of hard living and are themselves fully committed to luxury and (especially in Margo's case) rubbing elbows with aristocracy.
Good Neighbors: The Complete Series 4 includes eight choice episodes, including "Away from It All," in which Tom and Barbara take a small vacation from their threadbare life, nervously leaving their agrarian routines in Jerry and Margo's inexperienced hands. "Our Speaker Today" concerns a distraction for Barbara when she becomes a popular guest lecturer to different groups, speaking on the subject of self-sufficiency. Neither she nor Tom is particularly enthusiastic about the endeavor, especially when Barbara is invited to speak to a crowd of libidinous, misfit teen boys. "Anniversary" is the memorable show that more or less ended the series with a crisis faced by Barbara and Tom, but "When I'm 65" is the official closer here. For good reason: the episode celebrates the enormous popularity of the series in Britain with a visit to the show's set by the queen. It's a little startling but unique to see.

This is absolutely the best Britcom ever! It is just too bad that the show ended because we want more!! Even my kids, ages 10-15, love watching these episodes. We pull these out often and they are always a refreshing alternative to today's tv.

"Good Neighbors" is one of the best Britcoms; I would highly recommend it to anybody wanting a good laugh, and it's clean! Watch for the episode titled "The Windbreak War"- the dialogue is priceless when the two sets of neighbors celebrate the renewal of their friendship with the Good's homemade "Pea-Pod burgundy." The humor is not so essentially British that it doesn't translate across the pond, as some Britcoms are. It's pretty universal. You won't regret purchasing this DVD. Cheers!
