The Mighty Boosh Special Edition DVD 0
Now with 100% more Boosh than no Boosh at all!
 By Future Sailor |
The Mighty Boosh is a show that’s not easily described in words. I could tell you that it’s about two weird dudes that are unlikely friends and bandmates in a fictional band, predictably called “The Boosh”. And that they work in a magical thrift store with a Shaman and a talking ape. |
I could also tell you that The Mighty Boosh is the next logical step in the evolution of English stoner comedy. But maybe it’s better to just show you:

If that clip isn’t the sort of thing that appeals to you, then you must have come here by accident. You probably meant to go to Goatse.cx and somehow ended up here instead. It’s ok. It happens. For those of you that are already fans of the Boosh or maybe just curious, however, you may be excited to learn that there is a brand new special edition DVD collection out right now!
The Mighty Boosh Special Edition DVD collects all three seasons of The Mighty Boosh, along with a metric shit-ton of bonus material. There are stickers and postcards for the more tactile fans among us. There are also incredibly weird deleted scenes, live footage from the stage show, interviews and behind the scenes featurettes. If it exists and is related to the Boosh in any way, it is included on these 7 discs. My personal favorite is a “crimping” (sort of like a synchronized, acapella freestyle) collection that is certain to melt your face off with awesomnisity if you are not suitably prepared.
Each and every season of The Mighty Boosh is jam-packed with great characters, songs and classic moments. Even non-fans are probably familiar with the worldwide Internet sensation that is known as “Old Greg”; everyone’s favorite undersea Rick James transsexual fish-man. And you don’t really have to have any prerequisite knowledge of the Boosh to enjoy “The Strange tale of the Crack Fox”… Although it might help to keep a light on whilst watching this one (the Crack Fox is vaguely terrifying). Keeping a doobie handy wouldn’t be too bad of an idea either (provided that you have a proper prescription, of course!)
To put the popularity of this show in perspective, I went to a “secret show” live performance by the Boosh in Hollywood this summer, and you’d think they were handing out free blowjobs and bars of gold by the length of the line outside. Don’t be the last of your friends to experience The Boosh. It’s awkward when the rest of us are trying to talk about it and do impressions and stuff around the water cooler, and you’re just standing there all like, “Oh, that sounds cool, what’s this Mighty Boosh all about anyway?” Get with the goddamn program already, man.
I award The Mighty Boosh Special Edition DVD 9 out of 10 Unicorns Fighting a Robot Dolphin:
+1 if you find the silly English accents charming and fun
-2 if you find the silly English accents obnoxious and grating.
