Amazon.com Season 4: Feel free to insert your own "four-play" joke, or for that matter, your own "insert" joke. Sex is still topic 1 for the intertwined group of "exes and best friends," but in this pivotal season there are momentous "relationship issues" that will upend all their lives (insert your own "upend" joke while you're at it). Susan is pregnant, inspiring in Steve nightmares about his own execution and unflattering comparisons of the birth process to John Hurt's iconic gut-busting scene in Alien. Missing in action is the Kramer-esque Jeff (although he makes something of a return in the season finale). Joining the ensemble is Oliver, who is more in the Chandler mode as a lovable loser with the ladies. These inevitable comparisons to "Sein-Friends" are no doubt heresy to Coupling's most devoted viewers. Indeed, this series does benefit from creator and sole writer Steven Moffat's comic voice and vision. He provides his ever-game cast some witty, funny-'cause-it's-true dialogue, as in Oliver's observation that "Tea isn't compatible with porn." This Britcom is also less inhibited in language and sexual situations than its American counterparts. In the cleverly-constructed opening episode, in which the same "9-1/2 Minutes" are witnessed from three different perspectives, Sally and Jane can do what was left to the imagination when Monica and Rachel offered to make out in front of Joey and Chandler. The birth of Susan and Steven's baby ends the six-episode season on a satisfying and surprisingly moving grace note. A bonus disc takes viewers behind the scenes with segments devoted to bloopers and interviews with cast and crew. --Donald Liebenson

Why did it end? November 11, 2008 Oh these British shows.. I wish they were a little more American and could pull 20 episodes off in a season. I wish they could produce more than 3 or 4 seasons and move on.
This was a wonderful show. I'm glad I have the DVD to see it again.
Painful September 14, 2008 Let me start off by saying I loved Seasons 1-3. I have watched them again and again, but I resisted buying Season 4 because of Jeff's absence. Finally, I caved. After all, while Jeff was a great part of the show, he was not THE show. How bad could it be?
Bad. Painfully bad.
I do not exaggerate here when I say I didn't laugh once. Not even a chuckle. Whereas before I would laugh until my sides hurt, Season 4 left me feeling uncomfortable. Dismayed. Wondering what had gone so wrong where everything previously had gone so right.
It wasn't just Jeff being gone. The writing was off, as was the acting. The feeling of camaraderie was gone. The characters had lost their depth, and the actors delivered their lines in a way that seemed forced.
I should have followed my instincts and avoided this season. Now I need to watch 1-3 to get the bad taste of season 4 from my mouth. Yuck.
Jeff leaving + Oliver = Yuck! March 17, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I love love love the first three seasons of Coupling. Each season was well done, the actors were great, the storylines were fantastic, and then Richard Coyle, who played the apparently irreplaceable Jeff Murdock, left the show. The only shows in this final season that are funny or even tolerable are the ones that new cast member Richard Mylan isn't in. To be honest, it isn't even the fault of the character as written. Richard Coyle could have played the character of Oliver and made it hysterical. It is the absolute over-acting by Mylan in every scene. His scenes are just painful and are to be ff through. That said, the rest of this season is okay. It is nice to see the other characters grow. Overall, it is worth watching but lower your expectations A LOT and be prepared to hit the FF button quite a lot.

It's definitely much funnier than the American version. I could watch it over and over.
One star too much... December 22, 2007 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
Having enjoyed tremendously the first three seasons, the fourth would have been better left alone. I'm sorry I bought this fourth season, as it really makes you yearn even more for the earlier three seasons. The lack of Jeff's presence is made painfully clear by the bumbling, well meaning but totally ineffective newcomer who shouldn't even try to fill Jeff's shoes. The total professionalism that Jeff showed by withdrawing from the series is soo very understandable!! The series would have become a cult classic if it had ended after the third season!! No one remembers the series that faded out... this show deserved soooo much better than to become a cheap copy(!) of the UNWATCHABLE US series 'friends'.
