The performances are as strong as you'd expect from an established team, with actors such as Jack Davenport (the ever-perplexed Steve), Ben Miles (unreconstructed chauvinist Patrick), Sarah Alexander (dryly intelligent Susan), and Kate Isitt (neurotic Sally) wearing their roles like second skins. But in the surreal stakes, it's Richard Coyle as Jeff, wondering aloud what happens to jelly after women have finished wrestling in it, and Gina Bellman as Jane, musing on the importance of a first snog in identifying what men like to eat, who really raise the laughter levels. All things considered, this is superior comedy for all thirtysomethings--genuine and putative. --Piers Ford

Customer Reviews of Coupling - The Complete Third Season
perhaps the best season yet....? OK, so it isn't the best season of Coupling, but it's still top 3. In this seven episode season we find out where Susan is freckled, that Steve has no eyes on his bottom, and that Jane isn't quite as self-centered as we'd like to think. Also in this season Jeff kills his girlfriend, Jane tries to park her car, and Sally inadvertently agrees to go on a date with a woman.
This season isn't as funny as season two, which homes the classic Jane and the Truth Snake episode, but Season three still manages to make the viewer laugh out loud quite a bit. This season Coupling goes in a slightly different direction than it did the first two seasons; it focuses more on the relationships of Sally, Jane, Patrick, and Jeff than on Susan and Steve, but it's a welcome change. We see one relationship started last season grow, and we see another started last season end.
The season ends with a surprisingly touching scene, and the announcement that someone is pregnant.
(Watch the last episode of season 2 before watching this one and you'll notice Susan acquires a sweater somewhere between the door and the sidewalk, Jeff's hair doubles in size [in a matter of minutes], and Gisel...well no one knows what happened to Gisel.)
A Masterpiece!
Coupling is one of my very favorite shows for several reasons: the terrific actors, the solid scripts, and it simply makes me laugh more than most other sitcoms. This season features a lot of farce and new Jeffisms (such as "porn jelly" and "secret listeners"), but there is also more of an emotional depth given to all of the characters. I can't review the DVD itself yet, but if the special features and presentation are anything like they were on the second season DVD, that would be fabulous. Here is a recap of the seven episodes of this season:
1.) Split - Picking up where season two left off, we follow Steve and Susan (in a split-screen format) after their breakup. The men and the women head to their own versions of the "Temple of Woman", before Steve and Susan reunite again.
2.) Faithless - Jane falls for a handsome co-worker at her radio station, James, the host of a Christian program. Meanwhile, Jeff tries to figure out whether his pretty co-worker Wilma likes him as a friend or as something more.
3.) Unconditional Sex - Wilma admits her sexual attraction to Jeff, despite her having a boyfriend and him being involved with Julia. Jeff tries to find a way to stay faithful to Julia without offending Wilma, and confusion ensues.
4.) Remember This - Patrick shows up at Sally's apartment at 3am, believing Sally had called him to get rid of a spider. It turns out that he had dreamed about the phone call, and he interrups her night with another man. This later prompts Sally and Patrick to reminisce about their first meeting. They describe two very different versions of what happened to their friends.
5.) The Freckle, The Key, and The Couple Who Weren't - Jeff and Julia's kinky evening is interrupted by the sudden return of Julia's ex-boyfriend Joe; Steve and Susan discuss "nether freckling"; Jane is dismayed when she learns surprising details about her new boyfriend, James.
6.) The Girl With One Heart - Much to Steve's horror, Susan removes the lock on their bathroom door. Later, Patrick brings his new girfriend to Susan and Steve's dinner party, which leads to a misunderstanding between her and Sally.
7.) Perhaps, Perhaps, Perhaps - Sally thinks she's pregnant, so she asks Susan and Jane to take pregnancy tests together with her. The tests get mixed up, but one of them is positive, meaning that one of them is pregnant. Meanwhile, Jane and Jeff bond over their failed relationships with James and Julia, respectively, and Patrick and Sally finally address their feelings for each other.
If you haven't seen the first two seasons, I urge you rush out and buy them. But this season is even better, and I can't wait for this DVD to be released.
Love this Show
Coupling is by far the best British show I see it's so funny I liked Season 3 it gets even funnier I liked episode one the Split that was funny and I liked the episode when Patrick went to Sally's is that her name I think n-e ways he went to her room and thought she phoned him that there was a spider LOL I like that episode but there's a problem with the cd's I bought from Amazon. I have two of them and part of the Dvd you can't see it. But other than that is abouselty Funny I recommend you seeing this. It's too Bad Jeff left I liked him espically in that same episode about Patrick. Steven says to him "and yet you have 8,000 words for breasts." and Jeff says "and still counting." LOL I would like to hear it. I love this season it's the best yet. I can't wait to get Season 4 on DVD I won't be able to see it on Cable 4 awhile. I love the Cast but I have to say Jane and Jeff are my favorites. But now Jeff left :( I wish he came back.
