Mr. Bigstuff

I genuinely enjoyed this series, a bit slow to start with then it's just gets better. It's has some great comedy moments and some really good feel factor moments as well. It was nice that I could finally watch something that my teenagers boys enjoyed too and we could watch as a family. Genius hiring Adrian Scarborough. There is really good chemistry between the cast I didn't want it to end. Love Ryan Sampson it was nice to see him play something a bit normal. It would be nice if the episodes where a bit longer. Looking forward to the next series which has been set up really well. Hope we don't have to wait too long for it!!

I love both Ryan Sampson and Danny Dyer so thought this would be good. The first episode was certainly different but the more you watch, the more you are drawn in. It's definitely not for everyone but if like me you enjoy a giggle, are not easily offended and have no issue with swearing (and the c-word) then seriously give this a go. Not only humorous, it does get a bit deep at times. The actors play the parts well and Sampson and Dyer are an unlikely combination, but it works really well... a modern Del Boy and Rodney 😀 Although it is a six parter, be prepared that you may want to binge it... I did!

'Mr Bigstuff follows two estranged brothers; Glen (Sampson), a nervy perfectionist and carpet salesman striving to live a suburban ideal and Lee (Dyer), an alpha male with a prescription drug addiction and a tin full of their dad's ashes.'

I really didn't know what to expect when I first put on Mr Big stuff but I was genuinely happily surprised. It's a show that doesn't take itself too seriously, well doesn't take itself seriously at all - but it works. There are numerous moments with perfect comedic timing and the casting is great too. Danny Dyer is fantastic alongside Ryan Sampson whilst Adrian Scarborough and Faitha El-Ghorri were also standout in there roles. It also felt like they were having genuine fun with it also.

Mr Bigstuff is not trying to be groundbreaking, but is a feel-good series that is genuinely worth a watch, has the sort of easy to watch / easy going vibe to watch after a long day and unwind.

I'd give it a 7/10.

As usual someone watches one episode, you know that episode where the most important bits are setting the characters and plot up, and decide they don't like it. I fear for their attention span in watching anything over 30mins long. I also wonder why they are compelled to write a brat whine about the tiny bit they saw.

I found the first episode entertaining and wanted to watch more. And so I did. This is a great, funny series with great comic acting. Of course the plot is ludicrous, what comedy isn't (have these people ever watched Brassic et al), and it is that very silliness that makes it so entertaining. Give it a go. You'll enjoy it.

Just finished binging this great series. Great acting, great humour. Danny Dyer has found himself again after losing his personality on EastEnders.

It starts as it means to go on and dives straight into the story line which is great, you don't have to watch endless fluff to get the backdrop which is the case for some other series.

You will repeat the spoon dance scene around 10 times and laugh just as hard each time.

The only issue is when you finish you are left awaiting the 2nd season which must surely be in the pipeline as it is fully set up for it.

Some of the characterisations are really funny, Glen's boss is hilarious on his own and everyone has seen an Ayesha character these days. Both very funny.

Highly recommend, unsure how there are 1/10 ratings, that is a bit of an insult to a thoroughly entertaining production.
