That Apple TV is bad. Far prefer Netflix.
I watched a grand total of one episode of Iron Fist.

Netflix is bad.

To all the naysayers, let me remind you that Mythic Quest got similar negative comments expressing expectations that it would be horrible, including on these forums.

Mythic Quest turned out to be one of the best comedies of 2020 and has garnered a MASSIVE fanbase. I think reserving judgment would be prudent.

Seems okay but the premise sounds really dumb. Not even vaguely realistic... can you imagine this premise happening in real life?
Well there's been plenty of instances in the UK where uber-rich individuals with zero knowledge or experience of football have bought top-tier clubs and tried to manage them.

I imagine that the premise of this happening with a coach in the series will perhaps be explained away by a hilarious misunderstanding over the word "football".

This looks ****ing incredible. I cannot wait for this!! Jason Sudeikis doing the running man dance brought me back to What Up With That from SNL. So hyped right now. I've been waiting for this trailer for months now.

I'll give this a chance (nice to see Nick Mohammed in there), though I'm not clear if the primary audience for this is meant to be Americans or Brits, because tastes in comedy do differ between the two.
