A League of Their Own

I actually enjoy watching Abbi Jacobson and saw the film and figured this would be a fun and entertaining show - and it is! Much more so than I had expected so, what a pleasant surprise - forgive me that this isn't more of a critical review as I am only on episode 1.

It's funny, it's well written, it's got great casting! It's got heart too, I don't know what more you could want! Excellent show! I''my always up for an all women cast, but they really did well casting the right women, in this one.

Yes this is "based on a true story" but that doesn't mean it has to 100% historically accurate! The Conjuring is also "based on a true story" and I'm pretty sure they took some liberties & added a lot to the original story to make it more interesting. Why should this be subjected to different rules?

I find it hilarious that so many were so surprised & complained that a tv show that's about women baseball players that is set in 1943 has a lot of gay characters & racism ....

If you're not a bigot & want to watch a good show give this a shot.

Im very sick of all the ignorance woven into so so so many reviews of movies & tv shows on this app.

It was brilliant decision not to allow this show to mimic the film, and it was pure genius not to allow the film's iconic characters, played by Gena Davis and Tom Hanks, to become boldly visible within any scene. If it either had, this show would not have had the chance for its famous storyline to grow beyond the film. If it had, this storyline would never had the opportunity to widen and increase its depth with love, hate, bigotry, fear, friendship, and passion that was presented in every episode we are blessed to watch.

Enjoyable series! Great representation across the board. Lots of humor and heart. If you enjoy shows like Mrs. Maisel or Hacks or anything based around women, especially LGBTQ women (of all backgrounds), you'll enjoy this one. Highly recommended.
