We’re going up your stairs!
This is a fun DVD collection of a gameshow “ish” programme that Dame Edna had in the early 90’s on ITV/LWT. It is really an opportunity for the great Dame to poke fun at people, but in a honest and frank way.

Madge is here (remember madge “the badge madge”)… And the poor people whose houses they go into have some good fun… Imagine going into your closet at home and finding all sorts of things?? Well, thats what happens here.

Great stuff.

More lunacy from the Mistress of Mayhem
Possibly the first “reality” television, Dame Edna re-invents the game show to do what no one else has previously dared do: reveal women’s most closely-guarded secrets. No, not whether they are faithful wives, have a “checkered” past, or are stealing from their employers. This is small stuff compared to what Dame Edna uncovers. She goes straight for the most terror-inspiring act anyone can threaten your average middle-class housewife with: the revelation of how she REALLY keeps her house when no one’s expected to visit! Is there a laundry pile larger than a small automobile? A toaster filled with enough crumbs to feed an entire Petting Zoo? A hidden stash of booze, or worse, chocolates and cookies? As the poor, unprepared “contestant” discovers, Trevor and his live camera are there at her house, ready to ring the bell. When they do, Madge, Dame Edna’s brilliantly funny “bride’s maid and travelling companion,” answers the door and lets him in, and together they roam about the house uncovering bins, opening drawers, checking out what’s under the bed, while the all-female, by-invitation-only audience howls with laughter and the horrified contestant watches in anguish. I, for one, have never understood this common fear amongst women, but it is real, and Dame Edna sends it up with glee, revelling in the absurdity of being upset at being discovered to be less than perfect. It’s refreshing when the occasional contestant is actually amused herself (one of these has a house filled with erotic art from around the world, and has a great time watching Edna and Madge and the audience deal with that!)

Madge is the real treat in this series, which does become a bit repetitive–it was a weekly game-show, after all. Her behaviour becomes increasingly lunatic (imagine her in head-to-toe leather–on second thought, don’t), and it is her facial expressions that provide the greatest humour as she silently censures the contestant’s state of affairs. Emily Perry’s Madge alternates between a quietly seething unexpressed rage and a tolerant, profound fatigue after 30+ years of living with Edna, her lovingly brutal mistress, and in this series she really shines.

Just as in her live shows, Dame Edna fulfills her mandate to treat ordinary people as stars, and vice versa. Her stars-for-a-night may be briefly horrified, but they get to fly off to Paris for a weekend with the “traitorous, treacherous, back-stabbing Rat” who let Dame Edna and her crew in. This person, by the way, is also known as the constestant’s husband.

I found the first series to be consistently funnier than the second, though both Edna and Madge are in top form in both. If you have trouble enjoying them back-to-back, make the show a weekly treat, as though it were still on TV.

An absolute scream!! A great bargain for nearly 3 hours..
“Say your prayers, cause we’re going up your stairs!”

I’m not sure if this is an original concept, but it is a SCREAM nonetheless. Barry Humphries, Dame Edna, does a grand job with costume, wit, audience interaction, humor and even wrote the theme song. His facial expressions and comedic timing are unmatched!

He takes unsuspecting ladies from the audience, who think they are going to play a quiz show about houses, and actually takes the viewers on a LIVE TOUR of the interior of their homes. It’s a riot!! The show gets permission from the “sneaky” husband and they film while the wife is away. All the dirty laundry, and YES, there is some of that, is aired!!

I haven’t watched Part II yet, but I can’t wait. From the reviews I’ve read, Part II is even more funny! My stomach may never recover.

Bottom line: $26.00 is a bit expensive for a DVD, but the comedic SHOCK value is priceless….and with six episodes for DVD, think of it as a little over four bucks a show…a good value for all the laughs!

She’s a Real Scream!!!
I think Dame Edna is a real PEACH!!!
This disk is hilarious!

She’s fantastic live…but in a pinch, you can pop in a disk and enjoy her in the privacy of your own home!

Entertaining British game show starring Edna
This is an hilarious concept that carries through pretty well. Barry Humphries (Edna) has some great put downs and one liners. There are six episodes on each DVD so you get close to three hours, enough for a real Dame Edna experience. Enjoyable!

    Another great Mickey movie…
    My son absolutely enjoys this DVD, and so do I. It is very entertaining, the songs are catchy and there is a lot of learning to be had. Disney did it again!!

    excellent for children
    Excellent teaching tool and very interactive for the kids. My three sons ages 2,5,and 6 loves it.I highly reccomend the purchase of this DVD.

    Mickey Mouse Clubhouse
    I bought the Mickey Mouse Clubhouse Halloween and Christmas instructional videoes for my niece who absolutely loves them both. She enjoys singing and dancing along with Mickey and his friends. She is glued to the tv screen which also allows her mother and father to get things done around the house while she is being entertained watching both videoes. Along with Sesame Street these videoes are wonderful learning tools for pre-school toddlers. Thank you.

    Daughter Loves It!
    I got this for my 22 month old daughter after she fell in love with the Micky Mouse Clubhouse Hunt. This one has become an instant favorite. Every night after bathtime we’ll ask her what video she would like to watch and she always says “Dr. Daisy?” which is one of the shows on this disc. Very pleased with the purchase.

    Mickey Mouse Clubhouse: Mickeys Treat
    Perfect for the Halloween holiday and wonderful for the toddlers. My daughter became a fan of Mickey Mouse Clubhouse and since then I’ve collected this movie to help her enjoy dvd variety. If you enjoy Mickey Mouse Clubhouse you will enjoy this continued extension of Mickey Mouse dvds.

    Great Product execpt for Vista
    This is a great product but you are pretty much forced into choosing vista (which is horrible) as an operating system. If you were to be able to choose XP you would have a much faster operating system. With only a 1 gb processor the vista really slows it down. Its a shame that Microsoft pushes this product on you.

    Nice and Compact
    A wonderful product. Small, Compact, it fits in a small Lunchbox. Excellent Resolution for Photoshop. May not be good for far sighted people.

    Spectacular, excellent computer
    I buy the mini note with 2gb RAM, 120 GB hard drive, Windows Vista business 1.6Mg, works very well, is perfect for those who have to be with the computer all the time.

    The only drawback I see is that it is hot enough, but the size and quality are excellent laptop and de heat become no problem.

    Great with XP
    Originally purchased with Vista Basic. As others have mentioned, boot time is rather slow however, I don’t think booting is the death sentence of a computer. Afterall, I won’t be sitting in front of the computer booting it over and over. Once it’s up and running that phase is over. I will say that any type of multi-tasking under Vista Basic bogs the machine down tremendously (CPU operating at 100% almost always) and can be somewhat aggravating. For that reason I switched to XP Pro and what a difference! Now this little computer hums along with performance compared to any other mid-level laptop. Overall, with snappy performance under XP, solid construction, and portability the HP2133 is a great buy.

    Review of HP 2133 Mini-Note PC
    Nice computer, but operates extremely hot. Fixed with a cooler fan & USB hub nicely. Odd shaped battery, but it helps you hold onto it and props it up nicely. For a 1.6 Ghz, it’s not as bad as some reviews have said. Very portable and useful on the go. Heat issue is a problem if you don’t have a cooling fan directly on it.
