\"Buy<\/a>Dream On<\/strong><\/a> was one of the great American sitcoms of the 90s and Series 1 finally gets a UK release on DVD<\/a> this week from Universal Playback.<\/p>\n

In the States it screened on HBO<\/a> and here it was initially shown on Channel 4 and more recently by ITV4.<\/p>\n

It centres around a divorced New York book editor named Martin Tupper (Brian Benben<\/a>) and explores how he deals with his chaotic love life, his ex-wife and his job.<\/p>\n

The central conceit of the show is that his interior thoughts are depicted via clips of old black and white TV shows.<\/p>\n

Clever, funny and superbly edited, it is well worth a look if you are a fan of shows like Seinfeld<\/a> and Curb Your Enthusiasm<\/a>.<\/p>\n
