Big Shot

This could have been a lot worse. I will be turning in next week. Ok just watched episode 4. So glad I kept watching this show.

Very surprised at how much I liked this the 1st episode of this series. Very watchable sports show. Worth a try folks.

I admit I was going to watch this show for John Stamos. Although, I have to say, this definitely is one of the outstanding shows ever on Disney Plus. Love how the writers didn't decide to add unrealistic stunts or corny jokes which could kill the show easily. I really enjoy their dialogues, a little more mature and realistic compared to other Disney shows. No cringeworthy conversations. Diverse cast. Terrific acting. Good representation/messages. The pilot episode was pretty solid. Looked like it was a great start. I am really looking forward to seeing more episodes. I am really captivated to this storyline. Give this show a chance. I highly recommend you to watch it. Reason I enjoy this show is because there are not a lot of female basketball/athletes movies and shows ever since. So it is nice to see another one.

This is a Disney+ series, so naturally I thought it was going to be cheesy, but Disney scored big with a series that beautifully combines sports, real drama, and excellent character development. John Stamos does a great job of portraying the witty, yet relatable Marvyn Korn. His relationships with the other characters, especially his daughter Emma were really fleshed out. I liked how this show also had good arcs for other characters. Even though the stakes were never really high, the show makes you feel like they are. Yvette Nichole Brown also gets points for her superb acting. The show does miss a 10/10 rating for some cringy dialogue at times, and there wasn't really any "wow" factor with this show. It's a little predictable and I just wasn't amazed or surprised enough for a 10 rating. It's still a great show that can serve as comfortable viewing.

Interesting to watch while John Stamos exhibits his acting chops as a basketball coach figuring out how to come to terms with his career, his past, and his daughter. The supporting cast is excellent, especially the Principal of the High School whose timing and one liners are hilarious. Especially in the back and forth with Stamos.
