Watchseries; I am not a fan of overly 'woke' Hollywood, on the surface that's what this show looks like.
I am only 2 episodes in and don't want to jinx it but the show has given me some hope that they might be trying to do something that I haven't seen in a long while, which is to present both sides of an argument.
I saw some of complaints about PC bull from the first episode, but some of this is to be expected they are high school girls, but then the show expanded the teachers and made reference to the kind of things the students are taught and as the girls rightly point out, there is hypocrisy behind the lessons.
The coach is acting as a representation of masculinity in a feminine space, it's clear that over the show the team will melt his little heart and make him more reasonable and that's good. But what was also good to see was that he has proven to the girls that his methods do work too and that they can become stronger people and better team players by also changing a little.
So far I think the show is trying to tell us all to meet in the middle which is a positive message and I hope they continue down this route as a lot of people out there could stand to listen.

Big Shot watchseries. Not sure why we suddenly seem to have more of these formulaic shows about coaches and dysfunctional sports teams, but this show is not too bad! At first, I thought it would be about an unlikable coach who is a miserable human being, but actually ends up being a likable person that we can learn some life lessons from while he finds his own redemption. That's a good kind of "feel-good" story that doesn't seem (yet) to be overly (and overtly) dipped in all the political correctness and social justice messaging that's forced onto us these days by Hollywood. Big Shot doesn't have the humor and delivery that Ted Lasso has nor its ridiculous premise, but quickly establishes itself as a tad more serious but still light-hearted, less adult comedy.
Of course, if you want the kiddie version, you can watch The Might Ducks: Game Changers, which has has the most ridiculous premise, barely hanging onto what little association anyone can remember about the original movie.
Now, if Disney comes out with a show about a washed up ex-NFL coach who has to coach a South Korean high school football team made up of kids trying to dodge military service, I think we'll complete the set!
Totally adore Big shot!!!! What an unexpected, fun and special surprise. Heart, soul, sports, a touch of romance, an excellent young and mature cast and great paced and well-written episodes that don't go over the top with the drama unlike too many teen series. I cannot fault this series and look forward to future storylines. I only hope this excellent standard continues - cynical me ;)
The Godfather is good for that type of movie. Big Shot is good for this type of movie. Humorous culture clashes with an "older" man coach traversing gender and new-age differences. Kept my interest throughout. Well acted and directed. Entertaining story.
Very surprised at how much I liked this the 1st episode of this series. Very watchable sports show. Worth a try folks.
I've been tuned in every week since the 1st episode and I think it's one of the best shows on TV! Kelly and Garrett are a great combo for quality entertainment! Season finale next week...so looking forward to it! Good choice J. S.( better than full house) lol. Great casting,writing,production,etc,etc!
