    I happen to love this show. The character are a little over the top, but they still manage to keep my attention. I hope it gets a fair chance.

    This show is hilarious and insightful, and (mostly) easy on the eyes! I have NO idea what others are complaining about...this is my husband's and my absolute favourite new show!

    Desperate Housewives with male stars. Hilarious. Gets funnier each week.

    Too many references to the penis and I don't like to see men using the urinal.

    Come on, guys! The show's nowhere near as bad as some of you say. Lighten up and let the rest of us enjoy this guilty pleasure. It's darn cute.

    I look forward to watching this show every week. It makes me laugh. It is time we see male bonding on tv. I was dissapointed when it was off the air. It is enjoyable.

    Big Shots is a fantastic show. It is not merely a male version of desperate housewives. This show gives a much broader perspective of male psyche than DH does of females. I love when the men get together at the golf course or the bar. I feel like the writers are real men, and the actors play it like real men. By the way I am a woman and I have to say I don't appreciate the comment Big Shots is a fantastic show. It is not merely a male version of desperate housewives.

Anybody should be allowed to like or dislike a show regardless of his or her sex. I do think they are crazy, though, if they don't like this one! Big Shots is very funny and interesting. The hour flies by every Thursday. I beg you... please don't get this show canceled with your strange critical responses!!!… Expand

    Big Shots is a lighthearted comedy that touches on the insecurities, weaknesses and pervert angle of rich and 'successful' men. It is very funny and witty!

    one of the worst shows I've ever seen. I'm so tired of upper class white people and all they're problems. How about a new show showing what other classes and ethnicities are up to.

    Funny and fun! Handsome, self-absorbed guys and smart and sexy women who give them a run for their money

    I think the show is great. Funny and sexy. The characters are truly believable and great actors. It is nice to see a show from a mans point of view - nice change!

    It has a lot of potential. I think it's now beginning to address some of the serious issues in relationships. My favourites are Nia's and Michael's Characters

    Can I give this less than Zero? Big Shots is one of the worst shows I've ever seen. It is an obvious, but bad imitation of Desperate Housewives. Poor writing. The cast consists of a Lead Actor who doesn't care; Second lead who can't act; Third lead actor better in sitcoms; and the Fourth lead lacks charisma. Garbage!

    Worst Show ever! McDermott looks bored, Vartan can't act, and Malina looks lost.

    This show was great! I think ABC should read these reviews and poll some white collar men. I hope they reconsider.

    I love this show! It has replaced what went missing when Sex in the City shut down. This is Sex in the City, but with men! Even better!

    Jon Harmon Feldman’s naughty script doesn’t develop much chemistry among the guys.

    We're all for handsome guys exploring their feminine side, but we want posters of them holding babies, not being them.

    When all is said and done, the series feels less like Wisteria Lane than "Stand By Me" channeled through Danielle Steel.
