Mixed Blessings Series One on DVD (Link expired)
As Mixed Blessings - on the evidence of this first series - doesn't really exploit its central premise in any truly progressive fashion, it can only really be judged on its merits as a slice of mainstream situation comedy. As such, it's a decidedly average entry in the canon and not hard to see why it hasn't troubled TV comedy historians - or even the UK Gold graveyard shift - over the subsequent decades.
