Sobre hielo

My 11 year old hockey player said after he watched the first two episodes: 1) "I didn't know they play hockey in England, I thought they love soccer." 2) "No way an elite team would play with this kind of cheap hockey sticks."

• props are important in story telling - even my son's local team plays with one piece carbon composite sticks.

The actors who play 15 year olds looks like they are in their mid 20ies.

Anybody who knows a little bit about the basics of hockey and figure skating, and most people do, will find the show unbelievable with no authenticity. Good premise, not so good execution.

It's cringe to watch. Every character is hated in the first minute of its appearance... They say the actors in this movie are 15?? 15? cmon that's ridiculous... They look 23-25 smh Not worth the waste of time....

I really don't know if the writers of this show have any idea about the UK and Ice Hockey because why would someone with a budding Ice Hockey career move from one of the World's best countries for Ice Hockey - to the UK - where we don't really give a damn about the sport !

Anyone who is any good at Ice Hockey in the UK - moves to the US or Canada - not the other way around. Also Hockey scholarships are not a thing in the UK. Sports scholarships are very rare.

They could have made more sense by having the parents move to the UK for work and having the children adapt their hobbies to the UK - but i guess that is too much common sense for these writers !

It's not a bad show. Deccent enough storyline but I can't believe Spinning Out was cancelled and they made this! Spinning Out was an amazing show and I am still gutted they aren't making more of it.

It's definitely not good, but it's not that awful either. You'll feel the writers are beginners with a mix of good and bad ideas. The drama is forced most of the time with almost nothing supporting it, many things are undeveloped or resolved before we'd start to care. Some of the kids act more like sociopaths than actual people, turning from a gentle person to a total *D* the very next scene. Photography is good, well, everything is what you'd expect from a professional team except for the scenario that is mediocre at best. Watch it if you're doing something else, if you like ice sports... otherwise don't bother, it'll feel like a waste of your time.
