How Do You Want Me? was a British television sitcom, produced by Kensington Films & Television and written by Simon Nye. The director was John Henderson.

Dylan Moran starred as naïve urban man Ian Lyons, recently married to country girl Lisa Yardley (Charlotte Coleman). At the show's start, after a year living in London they move to the village of Snowle, where her unpleasant father (Frank Finlay) breeds turkeys. He and most of Lisa's family (which included Emma Chambers as her sister and Peter Serafinowicz as her boorish brother) take a dislike to Ian, and much of the comedy comes from how Ian copes with life with her family and village life in general. Life is also complicated by Lisa's ex-boyfriend Derek, who still holds a candle for her.

"How Do You Want Me?: The Complete Collection" was released on DVD in the UK on 3rd July 2006.
