Heil Honey I'm Home! (partially found British sitcom; 1990): Difference between revisions

Revision as of 13:07, 10 May 2015

Gareth Marks' showreel, featuring scenes from some of the missing episodes (1:46 to 5:31).

Often considered one of the worst television shows ever made, Heil Honey I'm Home! was a 1990 sitcom featuring Adolf Hitler and Eva Braun in a nice quiet neighborhood written by Geoff Atkinson and directed by Juliet May. The catch here is that the Hitlers live next to a pair of obnoxious Jewish neighbors called the Goldensteins.The sitcom enraged audiences due to its obvious offensive nature.

The show had one episode aired on September 30th, 1990 on the Galaxy television network and was quickly cancelled due to exceptionally negative response and was never shown again. The one episode can be found easily on bootlegs and on YouTube. What can't be found at all are the remaining 12 episodes (and according to the official website of Gareth Marks, actually 16 episodes) they reportedly recorded (with some even having been completely finished). Either way, the remaining episodes, to this day, have never been seen, having assumingly been sealed away in some unknown location.

-The sitcom enraged audiences, not just for its offensive nature, but for how terrible it was at being the very thing it [[File:Heil Honey Clips|thumb|right|335 px|Clip from the documentary, Hitler The Comedy Years, comprised of scenes from the missing episodes.]] was trying to parody, cookie cutter TV sitcoms. It is often regarded as one of the shows everyone can agree to be inherently awful.

-The show aired once in 1990, was quickly cancelled due to exceptionally negative response and was (understandably) never shown again. The one episode can be found easily on bootlegs and on YouTube. What can't be found at all are the remaining 12 episodes (and according to the official website of Gareth Marks, actually ''16'' episodes) they reportedly recorded (with some even having been completely finished). Many people argue whether or not this is a good thing. Some people are happy with this terrible show staying hidden forever, whereas others have a very morbid curiosity towards it. Either way, the remaining episodes, to this day, have never been seen, having assumingly been sealed away in some unknown location.
