Titletown High (2021)
Should have been two separate shows
After watching the entire series I honestly feel like this would've been much better being two totally separate three episode series. As a 40+ year old man I am fascinated by the football aspect, the coaching, and the scandal associated with Coach Probst throughout his career. I really could not care less about who the players are dating or the little cutesy high school drama that they tried to cram into the middle of the series. Pull the series.. do some quick cutting and pasting and make it two different documentaries. One about football and another of our high school girlfriends.
The Unicorn: It's the Thought That Counts (2020)
Disappointing forced episode.
I am a huge fan of The Unicorn series as a whole. I enjoy the character development and the quirks that make them endearing. That is why this episode was such a colossal disappointment. From the word go this episode was poorly executed narrative on what could have been a great conversation on racial issues between a diverse group of friends.
The only line in the entire episode what was well timed and even touched the heart of the issue was his line "Ben won't even go on a walk without his ID." Awesome, we are on the right track and heading toward a great conversation about race.... nope... The rest of the episode was a confusing hodgepodge of "Grrr, I'm so angry" and the weird juxtaposition of white people aren't doing enough but they are trying too hard and that Forest and Delia are too stupid to have an actual conversation with their friends so they should just sit down and shut up.
Swing and a miss on what should have been a softball of a topic for a cast of this caliber.
