In praise of 'Allo, 'Allo!
I liked Michele and Officer Crabtree. And Rene. And Yvette. And Lt Gruber.
The laugh track was the only thing I didn’t like.
The fake wedding was the funniest episode.
Fave lines, characters, situations?
I’m sorry…I wasn’t listening. Could you repeat that please?

You STUUUPEED woman!!!
Mme Edith’s continual desire to sing another song in that hideous voice. Also the idiot British officers’ stereotypical dialogue.
Oh, man, I miss this show! They used to run it on a now-defunct PBS station when I was in high school. One of my first experiences seeking knowledge on the internet was asking, on a Usenet group devoted to Britcoms, what happened at the end, because apparently PBS didn’t have the rights to the final season.
Anyway, I put in a vote for Rene faking his death and coming back as his twin brother, also named Rene. And the look of disgust Michele would get every time she had to make out with him. And the celery and aviator helmet.
I wish they’d put the show out on DVD, or at least run it here again.
DVD 1 & DVD 2 & US version.
I am forever in your debt!
I had a professor who bore a remarkable resemblence to Herr Flick. I always wondered if he was wearing women’s lingerie under his three-piece suit. It would’ve explained a lot, actually.

Hans: Do you not see? That if you kill him with the pill from the till by making with it the drug in the jug, you need not light the candle with the handle on the gâteau from the château.
René: Simple plans are always the best.
