Absolutely Fabulous: White Box (2004)

Apparently, this title is one episode from the series (with extras) on DVD; however, all six seasons are currently available on streaming, just as a mixed bag. The streaming version of this title links to the White Box episode (final show of season 5) plus 3 more episodes (as a putative season 6), but the season tag for these four episodes is called Specials, while season 5 is curiously called Christmas Specials 2002: Gay. Such cockups in organization of TV seasons has become common on this service; perhaps it will get sorted out. The show itself is quite popular and a cultural touchstone in its own right. These two women are "interesting psychological phenomena": Horrible self-centered persons who think the sun revolves around them and their privileged party-party lifestyle. I love Bubble (Jane Horrocks), their wacky assistant, and the other bit players (including Nathan Lane) who have to put up with these two. Couture and slapstick are thoroughly British and slathered on like lemon curd. If you've seen Catherine Tate as "Am I bovvered?" then you must see AbFab, through and through if you can. Cheers! 4 stars. (4-13-2017)
