'Significant Others - The Complete Series'
(Faith Salie, Herschel Bleefeld, Andrea Savage, et al / 3-Disc DVD / NR / (2005) 2006 / Shout! Factory)

Overview: "Significant Others" is an improvised comedy about couples in and out of marriage counseling, taking a hysterically honest look at marriage and the rewards - and costs - that come with being in a committed relationship. More real than traditional comedies and more imaginative than reality shows, this six-episode series features a talented ensemble of actors and comedians who, quite literally, script themselves.

DVD Verdict: Well, I didn't actually think that I would fall off my chair laughing to this show, but I almost did, if truth be told! In some ways, this is quite easily one of the funniest shows I've possibly seen come out in the last couple of years. And that makes this complete series DVD package a real found treasure! The concept is totally original - it alternates between seeing these couples in their everyday lives, and seeing them in the therapist's office - except you (the viewer) are in the therapist's seat, because the couples are talking right into the camera. The improv is relentlessly brilliant - if you're a Gen-Xer or thereabouts, they nail the humor. Basically, if you're a fan of shows like 'Curb Your Enthusiasm' and 'Arrested Development' this is next in line for your DVD players!! This is a Full Screen Presentation (1.33:1) and comes with the Special Features of Commentaries with Shows Creators.
