2025 / Physical comedy / Created by Rowan Atkinson & William Davies
One house-sitting job acquires an unexpected small responsibility.
What is Man vs Baby about?
Trevor tries to manage a house-sitting assignment in the days before Christmas. When a baby is left in his care, a job that already demands attention becomes an unpredictable exercise in juggling responsibility and practical mishaps.
Five things to know.
The starting situation
Trevor’s house-sitting assignment combines a property’s practical demands with unexpected responsibility for a baby, providing ordinary tasks with several new ways to go wrong.
The world around it
A domestic assignment and the Christmas setting give Trevor’s difficulties ordinary materials, allowing small tasks to become complicated physical-comedy problems.
The central pressure
Caring for a baby adds another set of needs to the job, making Trevor’s efforts to stay in control increasingly difficult to organize.
The creative approach
Rowan Atkinson and William Davies create the comedy, with Atkinson returning as Trevor after the earlier series Man vs Bee.
Before episode one
The premise relies on Trevor’s fumbling attempts at ordinary tasks, so approach it for physical comedy rather than a realistic guide to childcare.
A thought to take with you.
Trevor’s problem is not the absence of a plan but the arrival of another responsibility. The premise turns ordinary competence into a fragile thing that has to be maintained moment by moment.
Is it your kind of series?

Three ideas to take with you.
- A simple task can become complicated when responsibilities overlap.
- Good intentions still need practical attention.
- Comedy can come from the gap between a plan and its execution.
