Awful, truly Awful

I was just lying on my bed thinking of things to do today and I remembered this Sitcom. I watched several episodes not because it was in the least bit funny, I just could not believe how bad it was! Chris Barrie was truly brilliant in red Dwarf and Brittas, this really must have been the low point of his career, not one scene had the slightest glimmer of humor. This sitcom is best buried forever or used to torture criminals or something. The only TV series I can compare it with was a series called "Trouble and Strife". That is the only other one I can ever think of totally devoid of any humor. That was canned after one series also.

A Dunce Among Sit-Coms

Oh dear, what a come-down. Yes, it's still half-smile, maybe a slight grin funny, but nowhere near the Frank Spencer-ness of "Brittas" or the genius of "Red Dwarf". To be fair, both those sit-coms, whilst favourites of this reviewer, ran long enough to encounter very bad patches, whereas (thankfully!) "Prince" lasted but 2 years. Chris Barrie displays his talent for accents with his "comedy Scouse footballer" voice here but the character is nowhere near as interesting as Brittas or Rimmer. I'd love to re-watch this soon, a DVD release would be welcome, but otherwise just a blip in the career of a talented comedian.

pretty bad, but..

A prince among men is not a good television show. The Brittas Empire is.

I think it's highly unfair to say that they are on the same level - the basic problem I found with A Prince Among Men was that it was exceedingly boring. I can sit through a lot of things, and I love British television - but I watched it for a solid 5 minutes, determined that because it had Chris Barrie in it, that it might get better - but it didn't. To be honest, I'm a little ashamed of our young Chris, but I guess you have to put bread on the table in between seasons of Red Dwarf. But The Brittas Empire on the other hand, as annoying as he is, keeps you on your toes and there it at least something going on. So, in short - I highly recommend against this show, but at least give The Brittas Empire a try, it's not as bad as the other fellow would have you to believe.
