 More Great Drama From the Brits October 1, 2007

I bought this DVD on a whim and I am so glad I did. Just wish this series had gone on longer. The stories are fun and the scenery is wonderful.
Arresting Conclusion to the Series October 30, 2007

Hamish Macbeth is a tremendous series. I am sadden, however, by the fact that there is only the three seasons. This is the third in the series and the shows presented here have quite the serious tone to them compared the the first two seasons. The highland humour is still present as the undergirding for the shows but much of what is here is just good drama. We get to see a side of Hamish, and the other characters, that weren't so obvious before. The season does go out on a high, but slightly weird, note regarding two of the characters' relationship as well as a shocking premonition coming true. This is a must have for all fans of the good folks in the wee village of Lochdubh.

We have all three Hamish Macbeth series. The first two series are a delight and we eagerly awaited the availability of the third. Oh dear what a disappointment! While the scenery is still there and beautiful and the characters are the same the scripts are poor. It seems that the writers have had to repeat themes (the singing and hockey competitions between the rival villages) and descend into parapsychology to finish the series off (which it literally did). The whole thing could have been done so much better. I'm not surprised this was the final series nowhere near the same high class as the first two. What on earth happened?
[Edit]
I guess the positive reviews for this are based on cultural differences. The third series I've viewed again and I still think it's poor compared to the first two.
Even better than the others February 10, 2008

I'm a huge Hamish MacBeth fan, and when I found the third series to the set I couldn't wait to see the episodes. I wasn't disappointed. The series does take a jog from the familiar fun first two series and becomes a bit darker. But I found the story lines very well written and captivating. The characters were still fun but perhaps a bit more mature as if settling into their respective parts like a well worn pair of jeans. Like I said the third series was darker, yet even funnier than the first two. Overall, I loved all three series, but the third season was my favorite.

The Hamish Macbeth series combines wit, crime, a small town populated by eccentrics, gorgeous scenery, offbeat plots, and the yummy Robert Carlyle. In short, this is one of my most favorite British television series and all three seasons are great. However, while I didn't have any trouble following the dialogue (spoken with mild Scottish accents), if you are accent-dysfunctional you might want to give this a miss.
