Plot

The Mr. Bill clay characters come to "life" in a sitcom format, featuring Mr. Bill, his wife and son Billy, as well as his next-door neighbor, Sluggo, his wife Miss Sally and daughter Junior. Although starring actors, the Bills were shown to be a miniature family, with many of the jokes revolving around the characters' small size and the challenges they faced living in a large human world, as well as scenarios where Mr. Bill is subjected to the various abusive situations the original Saturday Night Live character was best known for. However, in this film Sluggo is depicted more of a nuisance towards Mr. Bill than a threat.
