Here’s another great way to pass the time until the seventh season of House begins. You can watch the nutty British humor of Hugh Laurie and Stephen Fry, along with a few of their close friends in the series BlackAdder.

The boxerd set of four seasons of this early comedic series where Hugh Laurie’s comedy mastery shines are now available on DVD: BlackAdder Remastered: The Ultimate Edition. This 6-disc set gives us 895 minutes of pure hilarity. Here’s what Amazon has to say to describe the series:

Follow Blackadder in hysterical send-ups of the Middle Ages, the Elizabethan age, the Regency period, and World War I. This special edition contains new exclusive interviews and audio commentaries , making it a must have for all BlackAdder fans.

Hey, it’s going to be a long, boring summer without any new House episodes. As TV House Watch reader Greg mentioned, another great set of DVDs that fans of Hugh Laurie and Stephen Fry should definitely check out is the full collection of Jeeves & Wooster. It’s more of their zany hilarity and it gives us something to occupy us until House’s new season begins.
