Where to find it: Apple TV+
Length: 34 one-hour episodes
Synopsis: American football coach with winning personality takes over English football club with losing record
Recommendation rating: 3/5
What I like about it: gentle, occasionally gets a chuckle
What I don’t like about it: unfunny, unrealistic, costs too much, inconsistent acting
Review:
This transatlantic comedy-drama is easygoing but bland, full of painfully performative writing and paper-thin liberal fantasy characters. Being an Apple product, it burns through needless millions and far too much of it takes place on iPhone screens.
