    Brilliant

    This was brilliantly written and executed. Sadly, only the first two years were worth the effort. Someone had the not-so-great idea to move the characters and change the voice. Who's in charge? Dumb move. One of the best things about this series was the way they presented two professional childfree characters. As this becomes more and more the norm in our culture, it's a shame that there aren't more shows like this that can poke fun at both the childed and the childfree - and do it without being cruel to either. Two good seasons was not enough. This is a show that could be done again. I, too, would like to have the episodes on DVD. Let's hope they aren't lost forever.

    I'm an American and I too loved this show.

    This is not a matter of ethnicity. I feel it's a matter of intelligence. You have to understand sarcasm and irony to enjoy this series. I agree South Park is pretty weak, but no less tiresome than Monty Python. I'm not comparing them, simply stating that both can get old pretty fast. Bob and Margaret is a sophisticated, eclectic, sardonic comedy series. My wife and I can't wait for this series to come out on DVD. It is a slice of life that we can sit back and laugh at someone else's problems, and compare them to our own, with a sense of humor. Definitely worth enjoying if you can find it. It's too bad this series was not received well by the masses, it doesn't have the slap-stick, easy to digest fell of some of the other comedies that people mindlessly ingest.

    come on you yanks!

    reading the comments for this show really show that Americans can just be so crude. British television is a different kind of humour - often it's a chockful of sarcasm and wit. it is an aquired taste, and it takes brains and attention to get it. unlike easy jokes on the Simpsons, King of the Hill, and South Park. just because it's a cartoon doesn't mean it has to be "cartoon funny". i love the Simpsons, and others mentioned too, but for different reasons. "Bob and Margaret" is a proper sitcom and i love it.

    big ups the UK!

    I fell in love with Bob & Margaret!!!!!!!!!!!

    This was the best show on television. I fell in love with Bob & Margaret(I am in love with Dorothy from "The Wizard of Oz",now). My favorite episode was the Supermarket. The most shocking episode was when they were at the gym and they knocked a player unconscious with a badmitten birdie. I give this show **********out of**********.

    Fantastic, brilliant writing.

    We tuned in to Bob and Margaret not knowing quite what to expect. This was a breath of fresh air. Some of the situations they have found themselves in has happened to us and doubtless many more couples. This is what endears the couple to the viewer. It all comes from brilliant writing. I can't understand why Bob and Margaret hasn't been snapped up by a major channel and aired in a prime time spot. It would go down a storm and be near to top ratings. Simpicity, pathos and humour is the best tonic I know and top marks to this charming cartoon for bringing a little joy into our lives. Long may it run, I hope that they will make several more series as we become accustomed to their lives.

    • Trivia
      Bob and Margaret was the second adult animated series after Family Dog (a failed CBS sitcom) to be produced by Nelvana, who originally had made their name in children's properties, such as Grossology, Stickin' Around, Maggie and the Ferocious Beast, and Eek! The Cat. The series also served as Nelvana's first adult animated project since 1983's Rock & Rule. Most of the production was done in the Toronto-based Nelvana studio, including people who worked on other Nelvana shows, such as Clone High, The Magic School Bus, and Tales from the Cryptkeeper, with the character design supervisor being Todd Kauffman, who would later be well-known for his work on shows like 6teen, Yin Yang Yo!, and Total Drama, and would later be known for creating Sidekick, Grojband, and Looped. Sound editor Ryan Araki would later do audio work for The Bob's Burgers Movie.
