I've been an avid IMDb user/fan for over 14 years now (just checked my profile) and have never felt inclined to post a user review. That said, I just watched Big Time In Hollywood, FL, excitedly came to IMDb to see if others shared my exuberance over this incredibly fresh, well-executed, semi-farcical gem and noticed there were no comments as of yet. So I figured hey, why not have my first user review be the one to start the praise that is sure to pour in.
This show is terrific. I would say "brilliant" (and it does border on it), but as a huge fan of comedy farce and absurdism (everything from Strangers With Candy to Children's Hospital), I won't go so far as to say I've never seen anything like it- but that doesn't mean "Big Time" doesn't come through on almost every level... big time.
If you appreciate the brilliant mind of Ben Stiller (the way only he could deliver ridiculous characters like White Goodman in Dodgeball, Zoolander, and even his character's acting style in Tropic Thunder), you will most definitely enjoy the style of Big Time in Hollywood.
New shows can be incredibly disappointing these days, so it's all the more satisfying when one is actually right on point.
Great stuff!
