To the casual observer, James, Duncan, Brody and Karl are kings of the world, power players who move and shake with the best of them. It's only when they're alone together that these closeknit and dysfunctional pals let down their guards, sharing secrets and seeking advice on how to cope with their challenges - chiefly, the women in their lives.
Big Shots — Season 1

What to Know

Critics Consensus

A smug, sleazy exposé on masculinity and wealth brought to half-life by a disjointed cast, Big Shots aims low and doesn't make a dent.

Noel Murray AV Club The show plays like a cut-rate sitcom, given a glossy drama's production values. Rated: D- Oct 9, 2019 Full Review New York Daily News Staff New York Daily News "Big Shots" is a big waste. If, as one character proclaims, "Men are the new women," then it's time to defend women's rights all over again. Men, women, transvestites - everyone deserves better than this. Oct 9, 2019 Full Review Barry Garron The Hollywood Reporter [F]or this show to work, it will have to interest women viewers in an artificial version of male camaraderie, which could be a tough sell. Oct 9, 2019 Full Review OC Register Staff Orange County Register In a nutshell: There's room for improvement; alas, evidence of such was not offered. Oct 9, 2019 Full Review Ed Bark Uncle Barky Big Shots doesn't place a premium on overall believability. Or likeability. Rated: C Oct 9, 2019 Full Review Sierra Filucci Common Sense Media Is this really how men behave? If so, it's a sorry state of affairs. Rated: 2/5 Oct 9, 2019 Full Review Read all reviews
