good entertainment

Urbanus van Anus plays Urbain, a comedian who becomes a houseman and takes care of his children and his mother, meanwhile his wife goes out to work. He tries his best but of course he fails. In his failing he comes in different amusing adventures. The cast is formed by a variety of well-know actors as Chris Lomme, Michael Pas, Elise Bundervoet and of course Urbanus. The story is very amusing, original and well brought. Nice to see young people as Pas and Bundervoet to play with actors from another generation, Lomme and Urbanus. There were plans for a second series, after rather good comments, but Urbanus decided to spend more time in his comics, so these plans were set aside.
