Creature Comforts - The Complete Second Season
G**N
If you liked the first season then you will like this one as well
I love this series! The animals are hilarious, and The Great British Public who provide the wry, grumpy, hilarious, and thoughtful voices for the animals are a real hit as always. The DVD contains all the episodes in the second season on one disc, plus the special Merry Christmas Everybody on a second disc.This season was not quite as funny and charming as season one, but it still gets five stars because it is head and shoulders above most other DVD's. My boyfriend and I laughed all the way through, and both of us agreed that we would like to keep this in our permanent collection for rewatching (and rewatching soon!).I would think this series is much more suitable for adults than children, just because you need to concentrate to understand the accents, and the humor is often more subtle or dry than children like. But I didn't hear anything that would really be unsafe for children's ears, I just don't think they'd like it as much as adults would.

Creature Comforts Season 2 (UK)
Very very enjoyable!!! It was hilarious!!! I thought this was great. As an American, I had a bit of trouble with the UK accents (two peoples, divided by a common language), the second time I watched it, my ear became "better trained". I have ordered Season 1, and I'm still waiting for it! I ordered the American Series also, and almost split my sides laughing. Season Two (UK) was very funny, I liked the fact that the Christmas Special was included and the bonus features showed some of the people interviewed for the programs, the actual people. All in all, it was well worth the price paid,(which was quite inexpensive) I highly recommend this to anyone who enjoys a good laugh!!! 5 stars!!!

Excellent, laborious animation appreciated by all!
My Grandson, going on 10 years old, loves, loves, loves, animated films and the process it takes to attain these spectacular results. We have a great bond in enjoying claymation and animation. In fact, we have a 3D television to better enjoy any 3D movies at home as well. I think my Grandson will one day be involved these processes when he grows up. He follows everything that Nick Park, Aardman, Pixar, etc... put out. I sincerely love every minutes of these as well.Sandra Knoxand Hunter Crawford

A different tenor than the first season
As a fan of the Nick Park's style of claymation, I gave this product four stars. But the second season of Creature Comforts is not as universally accessible as the first. For starters, there is greater use of harder to understand British accents (Yorkshire, the urban youth talk, heavy Scottish, etc), which is fine for BBC afficiandos such as myself, but others, especially children, may find it a bit difficult to sort through the sounds to hear what the interviewees are saying. Keeping in mind that this series is made in the UK, the references to pop culture on that side of the ocean may be more obscure & the humor more elusive to neophytes.The material as well seems a bit mature for younger audiences. Parents may wish to screen the episodes before watching them with their children. It's strictly PG+, not quite racy enough to be PG13, but a bit more advanced than some may feel comfortable with (think the juicier bits of "Were Rabbit").But the quality of animation remains strong. The little details which we all love - the background characters moving in response to what the interviewees are saying - are up to the standard of excellence which we expect from an Ardman product. And the humor is still there, enjoyable for those who appreciate British style & wit.As was previously noted, this set contains the separately sold Christmas special - which is a very fun episode, indeed, but not worth buying twice.So, if you're a Nick Park fan, this is for you. But the newbie may be put off by difficult accents & unfamiliar subjects.

Awesome video,,,HIGHLY Reccomended
This video was really a treat,,had seen a FEW of these things, before, but, was great to find them all on one disc. One of the funniest, cleverest things, I have ever seen,,and has some great, extras, on it, about how they do it, etcetera,,and showing, the REAL people, whose voices are used,,,very enjoyable, I will be sharing it, and watching it again, several times, I think. HIGHLY RECCOMENDED!

Not Aardman's finest work. . .
After purchasing all of the "Wallace And Gromit" movies, all of the "Shaun The Sheep movies," and "Chicken Run", et al., I was completely unprepared for the blasé presentation in the two "Creature Comfort" movies I bought. Of all the situations that were presented, I do not recall ever being moved to laughter. Albeit I am 71 years old, I think I still have the good sense to laugh when I am provoked to do so. Put your money into the Shaun flock instead.
