Almost a home run except for the annoying asian girl! That asian girl is a horrible actress!

Absolutely terrible character development, boring, and if you make the mistake of trying to watch it, you'll lose out on time you'll never get back without anything to show for it. I can't imagine who this was intended for.

Extremely bingeable and lots of fun. I absolutely love Kate Hudson and the rest of the case is great too. Often literally laughed out loud. This has broad appeal as well--my mother-in-law, my husband, and my teenage daughter and I were all immediately hooked.

This show about overcoming sexisim and achieving success as a person in the sports industry shows many issues that both players and managers would have within an organization. Mixed with a comedic family drama and a huge cast, this show will have you laughing and wanting to know more as you progressively watch it.

1st season was great until the excessive amount of gay sex scenes. There’s no need for this homosexual content with a basketball based show focused on a woman working her way up the ladder. Super unnecessary and NO ONE WANTS TO SEE THIS.Leave the GAYNESS for GAY based shows and movies! Praying Season 2 is LESS with the GAY and more with the YAY! Enough with trying to force Gay communities onto us. PLEASE GET RID of this. HAD MY FAMILY WATCHING THIS, and THEY ARE DISGUSTED! Make it stop! Outside of that. Great sho, great acting, funny topics, great upswing in content toward her ladder growing bigger in her career life. Excited to see what comes with season 2.

Light, charming and funny television. Kate Hudson is a strong lead, you will quickly find yourself rooting for, with a bevvy of great supporting actors, all of whom have both wonderful comic timing and the ability to play believable drama. Guaranteed to give you at least a few laugh-out-loud moments - and a tear or two - in every episode.

Kate Hudson is brilliantly funny, it's basically a better version of Ted Lasso

Quick wrighting with engaging characters kept my phone down and my eyes on the screen. That doesn't happen much! Witty dialog made me laugh out loud and had to rewind to catch the jokes I missed because of my laughter. An absolute delight and easy watch in the comedy genre which has been so lacking latley. Kate Hudson is cold drink in the desert and my thirst is finally quenched! I'm so happy she's back doing what she does best...making people laugh & feel good with the joy and heart she brings to this show.

A television program supposedly about a professional basketball team where not one person on camera looks or sounds like they know anything about basketball. Kate hudson wandering around looking smug. Ted lasso for dummies.

Just like “Succession,” this series starts with 3 brothers and 1 sister vying to run their family’s biz. In this case, it’s the LA Waves, a fictional basketball team. There are also major differences from the HBO hit. First, it’s a sports team: Fortunately, there’s almost no actual game footage, but comparisons are also inevitable with another recent hit, “Ted Lasso.” Second, it’s a more obvious comedy, but the family’s smug entitlement is on full display. After one brother (Justin Theroux) ends up in the hospital, he assigns his sis (Kate Hudson) to take over as president of the franchise. Meanwhile, she faces continual conflict from her two other hapless siblings (Drew Tarver as the frustrated gay and Scott MacArthur as the sweet, dumb one). The direction is tight, the soundtrack is cool and the performances are all enjoyable, although a bit more quirk might have added to the fun. If you decide NOT to watch the entire series, skip ahead to Ep 7 because Nicole Sullivan is an absolute hoot as one of the player’s moms. As comedies go, this one doesn’t provide many outright laughs, but there’s a spritely energy and upbeat attitude that keeps it “running." (First season is ten 30-minute eps and judging from the final show, a 2nd season is planned.)
