Bottom (1991–1995)
7/10
Mad British humor...
23 December 2015
First of all, it should be said that you have to enjoy the unique and dark satire of British comedy in order to appreciate "Bottom". I do, and I found the "Bottom" series to be quite hilarious.

Every time Rik Mayall and Adrian Edmondson gets together in a comedy, the end result is a sure win. And "Bottom" is no different. The characters and scenarios they come up with are just wonderfully bizarre and outrageous.

Each episode is a tour de force in its own and can be watched individually without getting out of step with the flow of the entire series. And that is good, because each episode is a story of its own, but still together in the bigger picture in the entire series.

There is a lot of slapstick comedy and it works quite well. And the two characters - Eddie (played by Adrian Edmondson) and Richie (played by Rik Mayall) - are a great opposition to one another, combining chaos with even more chaos.

If you enjoy the comedy of Rik Mayall and Adrian Edmondson, then you should most definitely sit down and watch "Bottom".
