  • Who's your favorite character?

    I would have to say Capt. Hans Geering. He was the funniest and most loveable on the show. I still watched the show after he left, but it wasn't the same. I was glad when he made a guest appearance on the show in series 7 to tie up the loose end of what happened to him.8)

    I still love watching this show! hide « show »

    I still love watching this show! It has been a favourite of mine since the first time I saw a rerun of it when I was younger. It made me laugh every time and I was usually still laughing long after I had turned off the tv. The story lines were well written and even though you knew things would always go wrong when happened seemed to always be unexpected. Comedy at it's finest, the British seem to be able to do it better than any other country. The casting was perfect and the acting was superb. It really was one of a kind!

    The best show ever! hide « show »

    Allo' Allo' is the funniest show that was ever broadcasted on TV. Extremely funny plot, witty dialogues and the perfect cast is what made it very successful. The occurence takes place during the World War II, in a little French town called Nouvignon. Every character speaks english, but with the different accents. The Germans and the French do not understand eachother, but we understand all of them. The main character, Rene, owns a little cafe. With the help of his wife Edith and two waitresses, he runs his buisness well, and every day something new and interesting happens there. The regular guests are mostly German officers that come to the cafe to relax and have a drink. Throughout the series, we meet many different, wonderful and very funny characters. This is a show worth watching over and over!

    This is some of the funniest comedy ever. Classic tv... :-) hide « show »

    'Allo 'Allo plays out in occupied France during the 2nd worldwar. The caféowner René is wanted by everyone; by the french resistance, the german nazis, his wife, his waitresses and last but not least the German leutenant Gruber... :-D The series is very silly, but in a really good way. The dialogue is great, allthough it is all in english. When they speak french or german they do so in english with the appropriate accent... :-) hehe... René has his problems trying not to choose sides in the war, but ending up choosing all the sides. This is a funny, funny show, and I can absolutely recomend it to everybody!! :-D

    Unbelievable... hide « show »

    "Allo, allo" is a true classic when it comes to TV shows. The humor is quite simple, a foreigner trying to adapt in the new country with a new language (which, of course, causes problems in the comunication). The characters are also classical, one is stupid, one is humble and so on... This might make you think "so, what is the special thing that makes it so good?". And, frankly I do not have an answer to that question. Perhaps it is the simplicity and originality, perhaps it's the actors geniality... I suggest you watch the show and tell me what you think! :)

    Great show! Real classic British humor! hide « show »

    When the French resistance takes over Café Rene, Rene's world get upside down!
    His wife, Edith, who is a great singer (yeah right), two sexy waitress Yvette and Maria and Madam Fanny (Edith's mother) are the residents of this café. The café is visited by French people, the French resistance and last but not least the Germans. Can Rene seperate all his troubles with the resistance, from the Germans, from his wife (he is cheating on her with his waitresses) and what about the Gestapo and the Communist Resistance... and can he stay out the arms of his most horrific German Luitenant Gruber?

    The war wasn't that funny as this!
