American Sports Story: Aaron Hernandez

This show isn't as bad as some reviews state. As a football fan it's fun enough to see a lot of familiar characters and programs reenacted the way this show does. Each episode does just enough to entertain the typical murder mystery fans. Character dialogue is pretty grounded and realistic. The actors all do a good job.

Some of the bads would be the unimaginative camera work that comes off cheap and soapy. The pace of the show is a little slow. It's also possible that people familiar with the events that took place in real life will find that this Aaron Hernandez story isn't all that interesting.

Watch it with your wife, watch it with your girlfriend, they'll probably like the show and you can tell them a little about how college and professional teams work this way, and when you shout out the cameos they finally be interested in your knowledge of football.
