    Just finished the first three episodes. Really wished Apple TV would have just dropped the whole ten episodes at one time instead of a slow roll out. Really enjoying laughed audibly a few times.



    tried to get the hotspur thread logo but guess I missed it

    just finishing the first season now. started a bit slow, but I ended up really enjoying the first season. i know it's not for everyone, but I liked it for sure. looking forward to season 2 and 3 (which was just announced today, I believe)

    part of it feels very over the top but then it hits on the deeper notes

    I don't think it's supposed to be as good as it is, like it shouldn't work but somehow really does

    I loved it. Somehow they nailed the characters and made kinda a new schitt's creek.

    Echo some of the other thoughts in here that I really enjoyed it.

    Relentlessly optimistic which isn't necessarily the type of show I usually enjoy, but this one hit the right notes for me.

    didn't know a thread was made for this, I was lukewarm on watching it because how in the hell do you make a show out of two NBC Sports EPL commercials but damnit they knocked it out of the park

    delightful is the best word to describe the show. fleshed out all the characters and glad they didn't go too heavy on the soccer side of it. always sucks when a sports show doesn't seem authentic but they've struck a nice balance.

    Watched every episode with GF yesterday. An over the top positive character (besides many other well written characters) was what was needed for this hellscape past year that we have had.

    My brother said he watched a full season or 2 and felt the same. I’ve watched like 8-9 episodes and just didn’t laugh at all.

    Sucks because most my friends love it

    Delightful is exactly how I explained it to the GF. Watched an episode around lunch one day last week and ended up binge watching the rest of the show that afternoon. Really enjoyed it.
