About
If you want a warm, grounded drama about community, family, and growing up with sports as the backdrop, this is a great fit; Not for you if you dislike small-town realism or teen-focused stories like Freaks and Geeks.
Pros: heartfelt relationships; addictive, emotional drama; easy to binge | Cons: some uneven seasons; charm dips later; ending underwhelms some
