King Gary

The first series was really good and all the main characters have their individual moments of brilliance. The King family are middle class people's worst nightmare; a working class family who have come into or made money buy don't have the class and decorum for middle class life.

The second series was even funnier than the first series. The new neighbour makes the King Family look like neighbours from heaven.

I really enjoy this show and think it's a massively underrated show of comedic genius.

I watched the first episode on Friday and I had to go to IPlayer and watch the rest I couldn't resist. Chock full of of great actors, witty, excellent scripts and great pace. It's a good way to unwind after a long week, feel-good comedy that rightly deserves at least two more series. I have been laughing all day because of this and you can't have too much of that in your life.

This show is the sitcom equivalent of marmite, you love it or hate it! I am a lover, relatable, silly, clean good humour, a few stereotypes but what sitcom doesn't? It's a show you can just pick up from anywhere and enjoy it. Well done Mr Tom Davis

Tom Davis quite explicitly wanted to create a "working class comedy that doesn't punch down" and in King Gary, boosted up to series mode after a charming pilot in 2018, manages the brief quite admirably. Bolstered by a strong cast of comedy legends (particularly the hypnotically mannered performance of Laura Checkley and the evergreen Neil Maskell) the absurd scenarios, cringing observations about contemporary British culture and cartoonish foolishness doesn't always hang together terribly well but the core of it is the relationship between Gary and Terri. It's got a rare amount of heart and character beneath the crass foolishness that keeps me coming back for more.

This was a very carefully crafted mockumentary on life in darkest Essex. Very strong ensemble playing, carefully paced and a brilliant script.

I loved it, this could be a very successful sitcom and has some elements of Benidorm. Tom Davis was brilliant and threw himself into the dead pan and ironic situations.

Just watched series 1 and it was really great, I'm not sure why but this series reminds me of Sorry with Ronnie Corbet, I think perhaps because he always started with a personal plan and then it went awry, either way I loved it

Series 2, it was very funny but they really upped the cringeworthy elements. This style of exaggerated mockumentary is not everyone's cup of tea, just like People Doing Nothing or Mandy, but for those that do this was great, I laughed out loud so this tells you something.

The script was both inventive and sharp, I say haters stay away!
