Black Books centers around the foul tempered and wildly eccentric bookshop owner Bernard Black (Dylan Moran). Bernard's devotion to the twin pleasures of drunkenness and willful antagonism deepens and enriches both his life and that of Manny (Bill Bailey), his assistant. Bearded, gentle, sweet and good, Manny is everything that Bernard isn't and is punished by Bernard relentlessly just for the crime of existing. They depend on each other for meaning as Fran (Tamsin Greig), their oldest friend, depends on them for distraction. (texto oficial do distribuidor)

Black Books (2000)
Every good bookstore owner loves their customers, because they make their living off of them. Bernard Black is not a good bookstore owner, and he hates his customers with all his heart. Moreover, he rarely tolerates anyone around him, so it's a miracle that his randomly hired subordinate Manny and socially awkward friend Fran are able to navigate his presence without (serious) harm to their health. But thank goodness they can, because with this mismatched trio, the fun is absolutely magnificent. It may not be as skillfully crafted a gem as the series The IT Crowd would become for Graham Linehan a few years later, but that's not even the point. The beefy voice and rubber face of Dylan Moran can elevate even the most overcooked lines into pleasant entertainment, and the best episodes then become a family comedy festival. It's no wonder, then, that more than a decade later, at a time when genuinely funny sitcoms are becoming increasingly rare, Black Books is remembered as a legend.
