Very Small Business

2008 · 1 season

A cringe-inducing, low-key comedy of errors that makes you squirm and chuckle at the same time.

Overview: Don Angel is a small businessman – the backbone of this great country’s economy. But if that's true, it's no thanks to him. After numerous unsuccessful ventures, Don's Worldwide Business Group is now hurtling towards liquidation. His debts are mounting, his stomach's killing him, his wife has left him and he's just hired Ray Leonard as his sole employee. It's a marriage made in heaven – at least until the Tax Office gets there.
How it feels: Satirical, cynical, absurd and melancholic. Measured and easy to follow.
About: Work, ambition, class, betrayal
Content: Mild sexual content and language. No violence or gore.
Note: Written by AI, so it can be wrong. Full breakdown
