A Many Splintered Thing

This highly entertaining show can now only be found in a fragmented group of grainy videos online. I would love to see the whole thing including the pilot restored and put on DVD. It shows off all of the players' talents, and was good for many laughs, with a little pathos thrown in. We get a lot of mediocre shows on endless repeat, why not revive a really good one, even if it's now 25 years old?

I was hooked from the moment Alan Davies' character woke from a bender to find himself in compromising circumstances. Both his high-powered wife and horrific boss do their best to manipulate him to their will, but the delightful Kate Ashfield steps in to bring some brightness to his life. There are a couple of good subplots as well. This brief series doesn't disappoint at any stage.

DVD, please!
