Watchseries; I so wanted to like this show, but I don't. It pains me to see what the writers have done to Scott Foley's character. I don't know if I can give it another chance next week or not.

The Big Leap watchseries. It incorporates a lot of elements but maintains a good balance. There are archetypes and stories we already know, but they are believable. I think it will play well for the adult audience that started dance classes and especially ballet, later in life. Weird jokes that are sprinkled in places you don't really expect them, distract you from feeling like you know what will happen next. I tolerate comedies that don't make me laugh, but just kinda feel happy or somewhat interested, but this one made me laugh out loud a lot of times. I especially like scenes where audience would expect one thing to happen, but they take you somewhere completely different. There is some woke language but they manage to play with it, promote it but also mock it. Great show.
I'm pretty ruthless with premieres. It's not beyond me to cut a new show after the first 10 minutes...but this first episode flew by and I really wished it was a double-header. I laughed throughout and was actually interested in each character's story (which says a lot...not a fan of most programming on Fox). I'm really looking forward to the next episodes. Fingers crossed it can sustain this same level of energy and likeability, and be picked up for a full season.
What a train wreck. Terrible!!! And offensive to us professional ballet dancers every time they say ballet it's boring and so it's Swan Lake, a classic that has been around for over 150 years with one of the most incredible scores by Tchaikovsky. I gave it a try but thx no thx.
A real heartwarming show so far. Rooting for the characters already is a good sign. One of the best pilots I've seen in a while. Top notch for me.
TV's Scott Foley carries a stellar cast that includes vets like Teri Polo (Julia) and Piper Perabo (Paula) along with stars like Ser'Darius Blain (Reggie) and newcomers Raymond Cham Jr. (Justin) and Simone Recasner (Gabby).
The pilot feels like it tried to cram everything the show wanted to be in one episode--a funny yet sometimes sad yet sometimes poignant commentary on the state of the world today and how reality TV exploits the plight of the dispossessed.
But it also makes you laugh. It's characters are painted first with broad strokes, establishing familiar story arcs to immediately invest you in the story. It all seems like a product of an age where data analytics prove a show must grab your attention by x minute and x second to be successful and certain metrics must be met for a pilot to be picked up or a show renewed.
For all of that, I found myself by episode two rooting for some characters, anticipating a delicious downfall for others, and altogether wanting to see where this story led. It isn't the greatest show ever made, but after throwing it on on a whim one Thursday evening I find myself compelled to come back for more.
