Episodes are filled with musical routines to deliver plot points, strange events that break up the action, non-sequitur gags, off-colour jokes, and oddball characters.It's Christmas Eve and Vic and Beef can't wait to start the celebrations, but this isn't the case for poor Bob whose festivities are cut short when the Christmas present he organised for his sulky son Erik, a bobble hat, is destroyed. if you do not like Vic and Bob then you won't like this show and if you do like them then you'll love it. There is, of course, no real script to this 'sitcom' and certainly no reality to it!! Morgana Robinson is absolutely fantastic at being a creepy woman! if you like surreal humour with a hint of the maniacal give House Of Fools a go.
