    Disrespectful Nonsense

    I hope since the show was released that Channel 9 has apologised to the family because it had to of been one of the most awful shows to watch in 2023. The cast looked like someone picked them out of a lineup, talent was wasted and how on earth could they get away with such tasteless acts like showing his cheating and not what he was known for? The editing is choppy and very messy, what's even worse is the fact they edited footage of actual matches to put in the show I mean wow truly wow. If there had been respect for the real person this would not of been allowed to happen but it did and it exists sadly. Don't bother, go on youtube and watch warnie's real highlights his career as a bowler.

    Awful

    No wonder channel 9 can't get a television drama when they rely on a dead has been sports star who hadn't even been gone for several months. This was one of the worst mini series/ shows I had the displeasure of watching and I want my time back on this awful show. I truly hope the family and those involved received apologies because there was no way no way at all this would've flown had the family known. It was rushed, it had a poor script and it was not "enjoyable" far from that. It was not Shane, for from it. More should've been done around his cricket instead of the fluff surrounding his life he may of been interesting but he wasn't that interesting.

    Trash

    This belongs in the bin it is such an awful and rushed mini series and it truly shows. There was so much more to Warnie in his life then his scandals, his cricket career should've been forefront in this drama and his life after cricket would've been better to see.

    I feel sorry for the family who had to also watch this, they deserved better in my opinion.

    It was way too soon and hard to enjoy knowing that we lost Warnie just months earlier, this was a misstep from channel 9 and I could not enjoy it. I got halfway through the first episode and turned off. I loved most of those actors but after that I lost all respect.

    Skip it you didn't miss much.

    The Story Of A Legend

    Shane Warne is is one of the greatest cricketers of all time and a true legend of the sport. As a leg-spinner, he was known for his incredible skill and ability to bamboozle even the best batsmen in the world with his spin bowling.

    What sets Warnie apart, however, is not just his incredible talent on the field, but also his charismatic personality and his ability to connect with fans around the world. He has always been a larger-than-life figure, with a cheeky sense of humor and a natural gift for storytelling that has made him a beloved figure in the world of cricket.

    Despite his many achievements on the field, Warnie has also faced his fair share of challenges off the field, but he has always handled himself with grace and humility, and has remained a positive role model for fans around the world. Whether he's working as a commentator, sharing his insights on social media, or simply interacting with fans, he continues to inspire and entertain people around the world.

    Overall, I would highly recommend Warnie to anyone who loves cricket or is looking to watch a great show. The acting is great and most events in his life are portrayed well. He is a true legend of the game, and his passion for cricket and his ability to connect with fans make him a truly inspiring figure.

    RIP SHANE WARNE.

    Avoid this

    One of the most glaring issues with the Warnie TV miniseries is its superficial and disjointed narrative. Rather than delving into the depths of Shane Warne's fascinating life, the series chooses to skim over key moments and fails to provide any meaningful exploration of the subject matter. The disjointed storytelling further detracts from the narrative.

    Despite Shane Warne being a complex and controversial figure, the show offers nothing more than shallow portrayals and surface-level stereotypes. The actors fail to embody their characters convincingly, resulting in performances that are devoid of passion and conviction. Whether it is the lack of chemistry between the actors or their inability to capture the nuances of their respective roles, the overall impact is a disheartening portrayal of a potentially captivating story.

    This is literally a cash-grab of the highest order and needs to be avoided like the plague.
