Movie Reviews of A Bit of Fry and Laurie - Season TwoMovie Review: Hilarious Hugh! Funny Fry! Give me more, please! Summary: 5 Stars
Inexplicably, Netflix does not yet have seasons 1, 3, or 4 of this early 90s sketch comedy done by friends/colleagues Stephen Fry and Hugh Laurie, who usually produce successful skits if they're not too esoteric or not dragged out too long.
Imagine a funnier, shorter, and very British SNL. Recurring characters include the spy Tony and his extremely polite boss, Control ("Bohhh!"); the perpetually disgruntled, swearing business partners John and Peter ("Damn, double damn, and an extra pint of damn for the weekend!"); and various interviewees on the streets of London. Much absurdity, wordplay, and amusing musical performances as well. Best bits: Hugh plays an angry man who wants to be cured of his eccentricity ("Well, give the man a bloody MEDAL!" ... I thought I would die laughing); Fry dancercises; Fry portrays Michael Jackson after much facial reconstruction; Hugh plays a song called "Where is the lid?"; Fry and Laurie make up new swear words. Is it possible they invented the word "skank" ?
My mom was in stitches after hearing the trifle/custardy joke in one of the John and Peter sketches.
Includes an extra feature--these fellows and other budding actors, including friend Emma Thompson, performing material at Cambridge University in 1982. Among the 45 minutes of this : Hugh talking nonsense, Fry teaching Hugh how to do Shakespeare; the pair plus Tony Slattery and Penny Dwyer in a hilarious game of charades; and much more.
