Man Like Mobeen

I don't understand the negative reviews. This show is brilliant on so many levels. The characters have great chemistry with amazing comedic timing. Only negative is there aren't enough episodes. At times I laughed so hard I cried 😂

The story arch in this series was incredibly moving. Funny stories mixed with real life conversations. I watched all three seasons in one week and the final episode had me feeling for everyone.

The final few minutes ... We'll see for yourself.

(Series 1-3)

It's difficult to think of a sitcom that hits the heights of Man Like Mobeen. I watched one episode, in full, 3 times in a row the first time I saw it because I missed a large chunk of the episode through fits of laughter.

It is inconsistent, though. Some episodes feel a little laboured, and perhaps focus on the plot to a point where the jokes become secondary. At it's lows, the scenarios can feel a bit contrived.

The characters & casting are brilliant. Eight, Nate, and Mobeen are played to perfection. Officer Harper too. Uncle Shady is a delightfully oddball character. Special mention to the girl who plays Aqsa, who can crack me up with her facial expressions alone.

All in all, it's worth a watch. Some of it is *incredibly* funny and stands up to repeat watching. Hope there'll be another series.

Found this by accident on Netflix then on iplayer. It's an amazing surprise we did not think we would laugh half as much as we did.

... that I am watching it for the third time now. While being hilariously funny, it also touches serious topics. All actors are on point, especially Guz Khan of course. I hope to see a lot more of him in the future.
