Barnes & Noble One of Britains most popular sitcoms, As Time Goes By is built on the adoring and warring romantic union between one of her majestys thespian jewels -- Dame Judi Dench -- and the wonderfully underrated Geoffrey Palmer. Since its premiere in 1992, the series has received a groundswell of support on both sides of the pond, building its following with a rare blend of charm and nuanced humor. The series revolves around the star-crossed Jean Pargeter (Dench) and Lionel Hardcastle (Palmer), lovers during the Korean War who were separated by a twist of fate and reunited 38 years later. This collection includes all 13 episodes from the shows first two seasons, and bubbles over with the trademark wit of writer Bob Larbey throughout. Dench and the marvelously deadpan Palmer are at the height of their powers, flashing a chemistry that recent American sitcoms would do well to study. Amid a sea of television driven by the need for near-constant laughter, As Time Goes By has carved a niche by doing something nearly unheard of -- revealing quirky humor in a subtle, natural pace, instead of rushing from one obvious punchline to the next.
