I hate reality shows but only watched this because it came on Peacock right after an English Premier League match and I just decided to go ahead watch it. Still not really my cup of tea but I wanted to know how it would finish. Footballers... lol... I have all the respect in the world for anyone that has worked so very hard since childhood in their craft to make it to that top percentage of players around the world paid millions. That said, when it comes to mating... Footballers do what they do. Haha They have legions of women acting in desperation at their feet and will often choose those who they feel flatter their status, even if they don't make for the best life partners, mothers, etc. In this instance however the footballers shunt their fame and status to find "Ms Right" while we watch them follow the same old patterns feigning as "ordinary Joes". Its kind of interesting to watch.
I actually think the show did a great job with their choice of players. They chose a couple of lower tier "face" men as eye candy, and 3 players of notable acclaim if you've been an American fan of soccer for 10 yrs or more. Any more famous and they would've been much more recognizable in LA. As it is the show pushed its luck with Marco Fabian, a notable Mexican soccer player, who was recognized more than once while out and about in a city with a large Mexican-American population. I'm actually enjoying this for now. RECOMMEND.
