It's rude, It's crude, it's FUNNY. Laugh out loud funny.
It's rude, it's crude and it's so funny. I mean laugh out loud funny. This will not only appeal to the child in you, but if you've got kids they'll love it as well. It's not easy to find but if you manage to hunt a copy down your funny bone will love you.If this had been shown on one of the major networks instead of that true minority channel S4C then I'm absolutey certain that it would have been a world wide hit, I mean forget 'The Simpsons' this is just so much funnier. Note - Don't let that reference to S4C put you for this isn't in Welsh, it predates any and every language. 'The Gogs' is without a shadow of a doubt the best thing to ever be shown on S4C, come to that it's one of the funniest things to be shown on any TV channel.

My son used to love the Gogs and he borrowed the video from a friend. We all thought it was great, and now 20 years on when I discovered the DVD I thought I had to have it for my grandsons. They haven't seen it yet, but my husband and I watched it. It was fun, but not quite as hilarious as we'd remembered, and a little repetitive. However, I'm sure my grandchildren will like it - all that lavatorial humour is just up their street. Not for the squeamish.

Great Claymation
This DVD has all the episodes of The Gogs. They are hilarious plastercene characters and well done in stop frame animation.It is about a family of cavemen, and the troubles they encounter. They don't speak, but grunt, burp and fart a lot.Some reviews below have mentioned that there is no main menu, but most DVD remote controls have a 'Top Menu' or 'Title menu' button, which should take you to the main menu.They are great to watch once in a while, but to watch all at once they can get a bit the same.I thought the dinosaur in the second episode was especially well animated, and the baby of the family expressions are hilarious.They have some very funny scenes and well worth a watch!

Love slapstick? Then you'll love this.
Plasticine violence. Can't beat it.Gogs was brought out on BBC2 I don't know how long ago but it is a wonderful piece of stupid humour following a family of cavemen and their quest for food and shelter.People get hit on the head a lot, they get chased a lot and fart a lot. And if you liked the beans scene from Blazing Saddles then you'll like this.The missing star is because it can be a bit samey - there is limited scope for hitting people with clubs - and the DVD menu is non-existent, meaning that it's appallingly un-userfriendly. You have no idea how many episodes are on there and just have to keep flicking through them all until you find the one that you want.

Smashing!
Hilarious cave man caper including all manner of crude bodily functions. Slapstick humour, killer plants, chomping dinos, erupting volcanoes and a wonderful homage to THAT Raquel Welch furry bikini scene. Kids loved it, as did I. Very naughty of South Welsh makers to call it Gogs though - an anti North Wales dig transparent to any Welsh speaker.

Urgh urgh!!!!
This is even funnier if you are familiar with the welsh, Gogs is made in south wales and is the welsh slang for our northern brethren, which is why it's all in grunts and pointing ;) Its not very well known outside wales which is a real shame. I've never met a real life gog I didn't like and these one are even better! I don't actually have the DVD yet, just ordered, my taped from tv copy is very badly worn now...

The Original Dysfunctional Family
5 Star service - arrived within two days of being ordered.If you've never seen Gogs I'm afraid you probably never will - this is due to the fact this dvd is currently only available second hand and ranges in price between £30 & £60. Having said that if you're on a nostalgia trip this dvd is priceless it is the original CROODS
