Movies not quite your style? Well that’s okay, Madman has also got a range of TV shows coming out to DVD which will be sure to tickle your fancy.

First of all there is the relationship comedy about being lazy and content, and also about being in a relationship with someone who wants the same lazy contentedness as you. Him & Her is from the producers of Black Books, Spaced, Shaun of the Dead and Hot Fuzz. A shockingly honest look at a 20-something couple, Him & Her is sure to have you in stitches.

Accompanying this comedic release is The Smell of Reeves & Mortimer and Bang Bang It’s Reeves & Mortimer. Reeves & Mortimer were a part of the unique alternative U.K. comedy movement, which included pioneering hits such as The Young Ones, A Bit of Fry And Laurie and Bottom, and have been a huge influence on modern shows like The Mighty Boosh and Little Britian. A great addition for any long-time fan, or someone new to them, this is a great pick up.

Just know that you haven’t got the most insane family but need the proof to back yourself up? Well, here is the perfect proof. The Family is a reality show about the Cardamones, with the hilarity, drama and touching moments of a normal family. With 35 remote controlled cameras and microphones filming over three months it is the most technically complex documentary to be attempted in Australia, and that makes for some damn good watching.
