Product Details

Product Description

From Amazon.com

Equal parts Marx Brothers, Black Adder, and James Joyce, Father Ted is inspired lunacy with a rural Irish twist. This set contains the final season of the BBC series; Father Ted abruptly ended in 1998 with the death of its talented, comic star, Dermot Morgan. The eight episodes here are a little uneven, but the best stuff is classic, laugh-out-loud satire, including "Are You Right There, Father Ted," in which Morgan's titular Catholic priest is re-banished to Ireland's Craggy Island, a green rock replete with paranoid sheep, randy milkmen, Nazi memorabilia collectors, and an inexplicably large community of Chinese immigrants. Outstanding, too, is "Speed 3," in which Ted discovers that a number of babies recently born on Craggy all look like a self-made swinger named Pat Mustard. "Kicking Bishop Brennan Up the Arse" speaks for itself, and "The Mainland" gives supporting actor Ardol O'Hanlon (as idiotic fellow cleric Dougal) a great showcase. --Tom Keogh


Video Details

Join Fathers Ted, Dougal and Jack, three Irish priests exiled by the church to their own private purgatory, a twisted lump of rock called Craggy Island, as penance for indulging their daft vices. With the help of the world's most devoted housekeeper, Mrs. Doyle, they tend a demented flock of island dwellers and try to make a heaven out of their rocky piece of hell. This two-disc DVD set includes every episode from season three, plus the hour-long holiday special "A Christmassy Ted."

5.0 out of 5 stars Father Ted season 3, Sep 7 2005
By Susan Stapley (Ontario Canada) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
I was so happy to finally be able to buy season 3 of this great series and I now own the whole set. All of the episodes are so funny. The DVD quality is so lovely and crisp too. Buy it you won't regret it. A must for any lover of british comedy.

5.0 out of 5 stars "Ruud Guillet, sitting on a shed?", Feb 27 2004
By kendall lopere (H-Town, Tx, USA) - See all my reviews
The third and final series of Father Ted consists of 8 fantastic episodes. While possibly not quite as great as the second series, the series still bows out on a high note, as Father Ted himself (Dermot Morgan) died right after the season was shot - a poignant montage of highlights from all three series marks the end of the last episode, a fitting way to make his legacy.
None of this should overshadow 8 brilliant half hours that range from farcical to surreal. The running "phone" jokes from the second series are largely absent, but a bunch of old characters re-appear. Perhaps the best episode is Speed 3, where Dougal must keep a milk float above 4 mph or be blown to pieces ("The Poseidon Adventure - there was a priest in that!").
The second DVD includes the 1996 Christmas special, an hour-long episode that is equally hilarious -although at times one does get the feeling that the writers are knowingly stretching some jokes to fill time (a la the Simpsons), for example at the start when Ted opens the door to find a baby that has been left there by mistake and then the mother comes an picks it up "Oh can you imagine us looking after a baby? I'm sure there'd be all kinds of hilarious mistakes and funny incidents".
Classic, Postmodern, Ironic, Surreal and iconoclastic - long may Father Ted live on in our hearts and minds...

5.0 out of 5 stars Recommendation to fans of father Ted, Feb 5 2004
By Matthew (London, England, United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
Although I was only ten or so when the first series of Father Ted was screened on British TV, along with many I was an instant fan. So of course my family and I were extremely upset when we heard that Dermot Morgan had died, and that we would never see another episode.
However, Father Ted's co writer Graham Linehan went on to help create 'Black Books' - A british comedy started in 2001, which is just as good - if not better. The main character is again an Irishman, played by Dylan Moran, who runs a bookshop in London, hates his customers and is perpetually drunk (a plus for fans of father Jack). The show won many awards in Britain. Unfortunately it appears that this programme isn't yet available in the US, but I would advise anyone to try to get their hands on it (Amazon.co.uk has both series), it has me in stiches.

5.0 out of 5 stars Genius!
There's no such thing as a bad Father Ted episode. Fathers Ted, Dougal and Jack, along with the inimitable Mrs Doyle, all play equally important parts in the one-of-a-kind comedy... Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Witty
Father Ted is an incredably witty television show. Each character plays an intergral part in the dynamic of the show. Father Jack is an especially exceptional character. Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent show. Best of the Three Series DVDs.
IMHO, this is the best of the three series DVDs. The writing is sharper, the situations more surreal/insane, and the actors are more comfortable being themselves. Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars Father Ted at its best

5.0 out of 5 stars It just keeps getting better...
My only complaint is that there aren't more episodes. My favorite has to be the Christmas episode when the priests get caught in the lingerie section of the department store. Read more
