This is a good documentary that gives a lot of insight to the lead up going to the Olympics, and it profiles the impressive ladies well. However, it bothers me that only the last 15 minutes of the episodes are super short and cut up routines. I know they wouldn't have time for much more footage if they showed all the full routines, but I would have liked to see more actual gymnastics, even if it was cut down.

I enjoyed watching this. In fact i wish i could have seen this years ago when i was doing gymnastics. However, WHOEVER SIGNED OFF ON THAT STUPID COMPUTER GENERATED VOICEOVER SHOULD BE FIRED!!! (The gymnast moves an mat... The gymnast puts her arm up.. etc.) Really ruined it for me. I only scored it as high as i did for the other content. Really, stop pretending we are living in Idiocrasy-land.
Seems like if you have dual citizenship options. They might come back n handy if you're an American gymnast.
Wonderful series. Very informative. These young ladies are fearless and so talented. I like getting to know the talent. Love that Dominique was executive producer.

As a former gymnast, I was really excited to watch Golden. This doc series does an amazing job at following each gymnast and showing how difficult the sport is both mentally and physically. I loved being able to get to know each gymnast on a more personal level. You get to know their personalities which makes it even more engaging. Highly recommend! Only 4 episodes in and I can't wait for next weeks!

Loved this! Cameras follow Olympic hopeful gymnasts for many months, so you get a real look at their training and their nerves at competitions. If you watch gymnastics, you know that NBC Sports, etc. Always give a very glossy view of the gymnasts. This is real. Probably most interesting to gymnasts or true gymnastics fans. Fingers crossed for a season 2!
