MPI Home Video brings all six episodes from Pulling: The Complete First Season in 1.78:1 anamorphic widescreen and 2.0 Stereo Sound. Neither the audio or the video will disappoint viewers: the image is very crisp and clear and the sound comes through vividly. Special features on the disc begin with audio commentaries on the first two episodes featuring director Tristram Shapeero, producer Phil Bowker, and writers Horgan and Kelly. A handful of deleted scenes and three featurettes (“A Look Behind The Scenes,” “Interviews With Cast & Crew If You Liked Pulling,” and “Interviews With Cast & Crew If You Didn’t Like Pulling”) round out the bonus materials.
It’s a pity that the BBC canceled the series following the second season (which I’m sure we’ll be seeing on DVD soon), as Pulling: The Complete First Season shows a lot of potential — covering all of the “pleasures” of living single in your twenties: the drinking, the foolishness, and the coyote ugly moments the day after the drinking and foolishness. There are so many outrageous low-brow moments that you may need to wire your mouth shut to keep it from hanging open in shock. Recommended.
