Task: Sentiment Analysis
Input (English): Great comedy from an impractical lifestyle . I first saw "Good Neighbors" (1975-77) in the late 1970s on PBS, shortly after the show was completed.  I was impressed with the wit and comic timing of the actors, and the subtle comedy which didn't hit you over the head to make a point.  When they came on the market in VHS format, I decided to buy them in installments, and am very happy I did.      You likely know the story: Richard Briers plays Tom Good, a frustrated 40 year old draftsman who works for a plastics company.  Good and his wife Barabara (Felicity Kendall) decide to "get back to basics" and thereby Tom quits his job, turns the yard into a huge garden, buys chickens and pigs for livestock and decides to become self sufficient, bartering for only what they need, etc.  Not a practical life style for 1970s suburban London.  Contrasting are their neighbors: Jerry and Margo Ledbetter, played by Paul Eddington and Penelope Keith. Mr. Ledbetter is an executive in the plastics company Tom Good used to work for;  he crawls and grovels to the boss to keep his high paying job, which supports his expensive and well furnished home.  Ledbetter is a slave to his work despite finanicial prosperity;  Good doesn't answer to a boss or schedule, but faces obstacle after obstacle with his crops or livestock.    The chemistry and comic timing between all 4 principal actors is very fine, and the laughs are many and frequent.  Despite the impractical plot - no one would get away with having livestock in a subdivision anywhere in the civilized world for long - this makes for wholesome entertainment.  I haven't seen the DVD version for comparison, but the VHS tapes are very good quality: clear picture, great camera work.
Output (English): POS
