The concept behind this show held a lot of potential, but it's wasted. It's not really the fighting, which was ok even if it was a bit unrealistic when it was playing up the drama. It's the characters that failed the story. The main character lacked any urgency that the story tried to convey. It could be the English dubbed version I watched , but most of the other characters were terrible aside from the coach. That said, the voice actors for the English dubbed did no favors for the actual actors. I give it a 5 because it was interesting enough to finish it, and it's not awful. It just could have been a lot better.

There's some sharp witted comedy here; However they clearly approached this from a left view. I have no problem skewering the right with parodies of Judge. Jeanine or the "Typical Republican Mom". I mean that level craziness should be parodied. The weakness is there is no attempt to similarly skewer the left with parodies, even with so much available material. There are some left aimed shots to be sure, but they were few.

Some good some good shots at Jan 6th and right on with the George Floyd. With an obvious chance to nail some left failures, they embarrassingly downplayed Afghanistan and then quickly pivoted to equivocation to Texas.

So If you enjoyed SNL over the past few years, I'm sure you'll enjoy this. Otherwise, the actors playing journalists, especially the one in the bar were the best part of the whole thing.
