    So so so so GOOD!

    I have to admit, I was turned off by the title, but a friend from work urged me to watch. Binged it within 24 hours. I found the later episodes are slightly better than the earlier episodes. "Black Jack" , "Aliy" and "Lost in the desert" were my favorites. Do yourself a favor and check this out. Ignore any poor reviews, they're clueless.

    Good Stories

    None of them really losers. Fascinating stories none the less.

    Well worth watching

    At the time of writing, there are only 14 reviews of Losers on IMDB, and already it is difficult to add something new and original to the body of work. Well done to the first 14.

    I watched the whole series over 2 consecutive days. It was a collection of stories, each about a different sport and sportsperson. The sports were diverse and so were the stories. They were interesting, and we'll worth watching. I know I haven't added much, but sometimes life is like that. Happy viewing.

    They could've called this series 'Winners.'

    Some fascinating stories of athletes who failed and how life turned out well after that failure. It's told primarily by the subjects themselves. It's well done, they get to the point quickly and stay on it. It's entertaining and there's some definite humor. Standouts for myself were the stories of Jack Ryan, Michael Bentt, Surya Bonaly, and Jean van der Velde. Every episode is entertaining and worth watching however, I never so much as paused any of them.

    Perspective, Much Needed

    The stories I would have never heard about now come to life.

    It's great to see the other side of the spectrum while also still showing the opportunity that could come out of taking major loses.

    Defeat is only defeat if we see it as so.

    I thoroughly enjoyed this mini-documentary series.
