I can't help it,

This review is from: Allo Allo! Comp Series Six (DVD)
"Allo Allo!" Has been around since 1982 and has just recently become available in the USA on a decent media.Basic story is of a café owner René Artois (Gorden Kaye); this is in France during the WWII occupation. He must balance dealing with the local Germans, the Gestapo, the good Resistance, the commie Resistance, having affairs with his female help, dealing with his wife and mother-in-law. In series six the fun does not stop. However you see some different people. A few of the originals are left. Fun as this is, one can tell that they are running out of ideas and in desperate effort to keep up the energy go a little over the deep end even for "Allo Allo." And surprise Edith (Carmen Silvera) can really dance. One nice thing about this series is that they place the name next to the actor at the end of each episode. Most of the actors are well known out side of this series. I was shocked however to find that Gestapo Herr Otto Flick (Richard Gibson) Played British Capt. Newman in Ken Follett's "The Key to Rebecca" (1985) and completely changed his accent.

The Podgeon on the Pist,
By F. S. L'hoir - Published on Amazon.com
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Allo Allo! Comp Series Six (DVD)
Has the economy got you down? Have politics got your blood pressure up? Will one more idiotic "reality" show on TV send you round the bend?Time for another dose of 'Allo 'Allo!--the magnificent nonsense that proves the old adage that laughter is the best medicine. And series six, like series five, four, three, two, and one, will leave you whooping with laughter, no matter how many times you have seen its variations on the same theme. The maids and Lieutenant Grueber will find the podgy Rene irresistible; Edith will sing off-key; her bed-ridden mother will complain "Will nobody come to the aid of an old woman?"; Helga will bellow "COME IN!"; the black-leathered Herr Flick and Von Smallhausen will hatch their fiendish plans to no avail; the chicken-helmeted (and -hearted) Capitano Bertorelli will make-a mistake-a; Michelle of the Resistance will "say this only once;" Sergeant Crabtree will murder the "French" language, and the thick-headed British airmen will still not get away from Nuvion, that small village in occupied France where everyone collaborates with everyone else (I am passing over the "Fallen Madonna with the Big Boobies" by von Klomp and the "Cracked Vase with the Big Daisies" by van Gogh.). The running gags are what make 'Allo 'Allo so much fun, and the gags in this delightful series have been running a long way for a long time. And despite the fact that the show hits all the various national and social stereotypes, the humor is good-natured; even the sexual puns and innuendo, completely lacking in subtlety, are hysterically funny and devoid of the patent crudity that infects so many "modern" American sitcoms. So, in the words of Sergeant Crabtree, witch this twee-dosk sot in the oovening and you will be sure to have a good moaning the nayxt doo. 2 of 2 people found the following review helpful

'Allo 'Allo -- The Complete Series Six,
By M. A. Blazek - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Allo Allo! Comp Series Six (DVD)
A new German general, a new Le Clerc (son of the old Le Clerc, played by now-deceased Jack Haig), and a new female counterfoil to Arthur Bostrom's character (the French-speaking English gendarme) join the regular cast in this installment. Improbable schemes to return the two English airmen seem to culminate, but as usual, something goes awry at the last moment. These episodes end with another attempt at long-distance communications via a "homing podgeon" and a truly strange wedding ceremony between Edith's Maman and Le Clerc.
