Mr. Bigstuff

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!

Starts off slow but gets better and better if you like plebs and brassic you will love this very good writing Ryan and Danny at there best all in all a good solid series bring on series 2 Rayn is as good in this as he his in plebs and Danny is all in all brilliant we need more comedy like this nice and steady all the actors are spot on even the one liners to be honest I have never been a big fan of Danny Dyer only been in one film I love that was severance this is as good as that film for style and comedy so please please the powers that be bring on series 2 great actors great script great series.

Gave this show a go after seeing the trailer. Was a bit dubious when the first episode started. Wasn't sure what to make of it. But gradually as the episode went on, little bits & pieces actually made me laugh out loud. Only intended to watch one episode before bed. I've ended up binge watching every episode. To say this show is well written would be an understatement. It's hilariously funny & poignant in equal measure. The characters have great depth and the actors bring them to life perfectly. I would definitely recommend giving this show a go. The ending was outstanding. I really hope there's a second series. Well done all involved.

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!!

'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.
