A classic fish-out-of-water sitcom from the 1980s, MR. BELVEDERE stars Christopher Hewett as a sophisticated British butler who takes a job in a suburban American household. Though the middle-class Owens clan isn’t exactly uncivilized, they are unsettlingly (to Belvedere) American: the three children, Heather (Tracy Wells), Kevin (Rob Stone), and Wesley (Brice Beckham), are rambunctious and charmingly snarky; their father, George (Bob Uecker), is a gently macho sportswriter; and George's wife, Marsha (Ilene Graff), is a "supermom" attempting to juggle home life with law school. Their tastes don’t immediately line up, but Mr. Belvedere soon becomes part of the family, providing the guidance, friendship, and fine food that they didn’t even know they needed. This collection includes every episode from the show’s first two seasons.

Distributor Notes: When Pittsburgh sports columnist George Owens (Bob Uecker) and wife Marsha (Ilene Graff), a new law school student, find themselves with little time to spend with their three rambunctious kids, Marsha places an ad for a housekeeper.
Enter Mr. Belvedere (Christopher Hewett), a quick-witted, refined, portly English housekeeper.
Mr. Belvedere premiered on ABC in 1985 and enjoyed a six season run, but has endured ever since as a symbol of its time. The story of one family trying to have it all—with some unlikely help—the show wasn’t afraid to deal with real issues and still make you laugh. Affectionately remembered (and lampooned), Mr. Belvedere lives on as a cult favorite and an ideal of ’80s suburbia.
