Big Mood commenced on Stan late last month while Channel 4 in the UK the same time. The six-part series is written and created by Camilla Whitehill, starring Nicola Coughlan and Lydia West.
Advertised as riotous comedy-drama that follows Maggie (Coughlan) and Eddie (West). OK episode one was funny, but it becomes much more of a dark comedy with more emphasis on dark than comedy as the six episodes roll on.
Maggie and Eddie have been best friends for 10 years, through thick, thin, and multiple eyebrow trends. But with their thirties looming and Maggie’s mental health spiralling, can their friendship survive?
Also appearing in the series, Sally Phillips, Amy Gledhill and Freya Parker, with a guest appearance from Joanna Page, playing herself.
Now I wanted to like this as I love a UK short and sharp series now. But this was a little tough to watch.
If you are having a rough time right now, maybe give this one a miss. Stan really needs to work on getting some more content deals signed. Currently the content is a little inconsistent without any regular original series of their own dropping.
At least All American is back on week to week. I did also discover a random Showtime one and done comedy which I am also half way through, I Love That for You. Which is truly FAB! I cannot wait to finish that bad boy! Eight episodes of pure fun!
Sadly Big Mood, wasn't enough to put me in a good mood.
