Yes, Prime Minister Season 2

1987 8 Episodes Comedy · War & Politics ⭐ 8/10

Right now, Yes, Prime Minister Season 2 is on streaming and several other platforms, sitting at 8/10 on TMDB. Consistently well-regarded, and easy to understand why once you start watching.

Originally commissioned by BBC Two, Yes, Prime Minister Season 2 quickly became exactly the kind of show that viewers rearrange their evenings for. If Prime Minister Jim Hacker has a fault (and god knows...), it is that he has ideas. Fortunately his Cabinet Secretary, Sir Humphrey makes sure they never come to fruition. Meanwhile poor Bernard, his Private Secretary, sits uneasily on the fence between them... It aired in 1987.

Ideal for when you want something light without wanting something stupid. Yes, Prime Minister Season 2 respects its audience — rarer than it should be.
