Cold feet: Amours et petits bonheurs

Well what can I say?. A wonderful sitcom. Human, funny, warm. It has made me laugh and certainly made cry. It sounds maybe stupid but as the show runs you become familiar with the characters and the persons. The final is too tragic...I never thought I would cry in front of my TV. I'm gonna miss all those fictive people...

The best TV-show ever!

COLD FEET which can be seen in the USA on the BRAVO channel has the edgy quality of HBO's SEX AND THE CITY another favorite of mine. It

follows the ups and downs of three British couples and their relationships. Kind of British THIRTYSOMETHING although at least one of the couples is on the forty side of thirty.

It surely is better than most anything shown on American Network tv and worth checking out.

This is the best comedy of the 1990's and hopefully continue strong in to 2000. It makes its american counter-part Friends like a childish sitcom. Cold Feet is the best drama/comdey in a long time that only the british could do best. The script is razor sharpe, the actors are easy to ID with and the plot is fast full of twist and very sexy

Cold Feet is a witty TV-series about three couples, which evolved from being a clever sitcom to (one of) the best series about couples in their thirties there is. It leaves all the American series seem like fast-food comedy.

Next week our network will be showing the very last episode of the series. A lot has happened in this last season, which made it more "soapy" than the previous seasons.

The acting and casting is great. The humour is original, innovation and clever all at once. I used to watch it with my brother and parents, and then with my girlfriend. It's humour for all generations.

Oh how I will miss watching at Adam, Rachel, David, Jenny, Pete, Jo and Karen.

I never saw this on TV but bought the box set two weeks ago, not entirely sure I was going to like it. By the second episode I was completely hooked, and have watched the entire series in record time. Something about it makes it totally unputdownable. The writing is brilliant; I often found myself laughing out loud and then close to tears within one and the same episode. Despite being beyond the age bracket at which I gather the programme was targeted, unmarried and having no children I could still identify with the characters. I think that at one time or another I either empathized or became exasperated with each of them in turn.

The acting is superb throughout, and in the last two episodes it positively took my breath away. Hermione Norris in particular was absolutely extraordinary; why her acting ability doesn't seem to be given the recognition it deserves, I cannot imagine. By the end of the show, I think all the other characters were somewhat in the shadow of hers - which is a massive tribute to her and takes nothing at all away from the excellent work of the others.

There are too many comic highlights to mention, but I particularly appreciated David trying to get his baby son off to sleep by reading stock market reports, Pete's mum being introduced to the joys of smoking cannabis and the mens' ability to play decent golf being affected by the vagaries of their sex lives.

I can't recommend this strongly enough - it really is a television masterpiece.
