Perfect World

When the series "Perfect World" came out, I loved it.

Our local station BNN showed "Dennis Pennis" episodes and also then interviewed Mr. Paul Kaye. Great guy. Series 1 was top notch. Successful businessman, hot girlfriend, nice plots, etc. Series 2 however disappointed me somewhat. He lost his girlfriend, his hair grew and it seemed he didn't care as much anymore. Not the pinnacle of success anymore.

A real shame, because after the first series I thought they really had something. So too bad, they couldn't keep the standard and continue on for another few years.

After falling upon this show one late night, I was reasonably impressed with the overall content and comedy of the show, and after tuning in again, I was utterly hooked on it. Paul Kaye (played by Bob Slay) is a classic comedic character. The shows' comedy is original and truly amusing. Each actor plays their role perfectly and all have their own antics and personalities. Paul gets into some interesting situations over the episodes, all extremely clever and comical. The only complaint I have is that it's not played often enough, because I think it has the capability of being a lot more sucessful world-wide than it is.

i would love to see series two of perfect world again, i haven't seen it since it aired on bbc2. i currently own series 1 and think it is absolutely fantastic. Paul Kaye is an absolute comedy genius and deserves to go very far. what a show, it doesn't come funnier than this. Bob Slay is one of the best characters in a sitcom, he's cruel, ruthless, and very funny. he is always putting himself in a corner but at the end he always comes out on top. his hapless assistant Maggie gets the brunt of Bobs cruelty, but she holds her own in a battle of sneakiness. Vaughan is another character who gets thrown to the sharks by Bobs ruthlessness, and he rarely has any kind of comeback. the marketing director however thinks of Bob as a son and is somewhat mentally challenged when it comes to behaving appropriately. all in all this is comedy writing and acting at its very best and there should definitely be a third series.

This show is about the ultimate office slacker - Bob Slay, and his endeavours to impress the old, wily and quite frankly perverted marketing director. There's a piece of Bob Slay in all of us, whether it is seducing the new secretary, sciving off work everyday and still getting a bonus or just being Mr. Wonderful, Bob does it all. Paul Kaye is the perfect cast for this part (one episode even brings up a slight return to his Dennis Pennis character) as are the supporting cast, the gullible Vaughan and the explosive Maggie. Every episode is filled with constant humour and quick wit, with the odd innuendo in now and again (which is an understatement). I hope they make a third series.

This show is ace! It's soooo unfair cos you can't get it on DVD or Video and it's not being shown on TV at the moment so I have no way of watching it! I wanna see it! Perfect World is so hilarious, the character Bob Slay is ace...It's just...really cool..Don't really have anything else to say, except that this IS good, and this IS funny, and if you don't agree...You're missing something!
