Agree with the negative reviews. I watched it on a plane because I figured it couldn’t be that bad with the RT scores and how much money it made.

It was really bad CGI and just wasn’t a good story. I didn’t care at all about the characters like you do in the first one and the whole thing felt like a money grab. Was really disappointed and still wondering how it did so well at the box office.
Agree with everything said. Non book reader here but loved season 1. Season 2 was very good but some of the storylines dragged. Still looking forward to season three
Good detailed article detailing how Wrexham put it all together this year. Long read but very interesting.

Well they seem to have priced out the small fan base they had. Raising prices every year for a mediocre to bad product on the court doesn’t promote ticket sales. Not sure what other markets pricing is but they need to be on the low end until things get better.

Man on the inside was surprisingly good. If you like Ted Danson you’ll enjoy it. Starts a little slow but finds its groove after a couple of episodes.
Really love the show but the ending was so anti climatic it just made me want to get the books. I enjoy a good cliffhanger but would have preferred some resolution to some of the season 2 storylines we really didn’t get. Maybe that’s how the books line out but finish the story and then tease the past storyline going into season 3.

Overall still one of the best shows out there for me but just let me unsatisfied with the ending.

Enjoyed the first season. Couldn’t get halfway through the second once the Covid storyline and random lesbian relationship started. Didn’t really care it went that way it was just so random and seemed lazy and stupid so I gave up.
Dollywood is a great park. Clean and friendly staff with great rides. Haven’t done silver dollar city but I’ve heard similar nice things about that one as well. Don’t think you can go wrong if that’s your main reason for going to the area
Agree this was fantastic and well done.

For those asking about the Steve Martin/martin short comedy tour I know it was on Netflix for a while and it’s also fantastic. Not sure if it’s still there but definitely worth a watch if you can find it.

As stated above it was a great start and just went downhill quickly. I absolutely loved S1 and S2 was ok but not great at all. Then S3 only made it though 2 episodes and just couldn’t do it anymore. It’s almost like the writers took themselves way too seriously and wrote this corporate drama that just didn’t belong. Either that or they ran out of ideas which is just as sad.

Really disappointed and miss the lightheartedness of S1.

Great food everywhere and really haven’t had a bad meal there. Make sure to make reservations though if you’re going to a nice resteraunt there.

Someone mentioned altitude. If you are from the gulf coast start drinking water as soon as you get off the plane and stay hydrated. Was a tip I got after a couple of trips there and it really works for the altitude sickness.

Can’t argue with any of the suggestions except for maybe morning show. Season 1 was good but 2 was just awful imo.

And like said above most of their content is great but it’s not a lot. For $5-6 a month it was worth keeping but think it’s going up to $12 or something like that.

I’ll also add mythic quest the list above. Pretty funny show.

It was really bad. I was talked into watching it on Disney+ with the kids and it was excruciating to sit through. CGI was awful and the acting wasn’t better. Setting it in the carribean was just dumb but I guess that’s how they excused casting Ariel. The kids didn’t like it either which I suppose is a blessing. No idea how that has a 94% audience score on RT.

On the flip side was pleasantly surprised with elemental. Scared to watch anything disney these days because they’ve been so bad but it was a decent flick.

I’ll bump this up. Also interested if anyone has had any experiences.
Tickets for the semi finals should get you into both games
They should with that 4 goal win but not guaranteed
They should still advance with a draw on Tuesday on GD as long as wales doesn’t beat England.
I don’t think Vegas knows what to do with this lsu team. You never know what version of the tigers you’re going to get from weeks to week even with the wins.

Agree with all the comments. I never thought I would have to screen a Pixar movie before watching it with the kids but wish I had. It was promoted as a family movie but really not appropriate for younger kids.

On top of that it really just wasn’t a good movie. Complete rip off of teen wolf and Godzilla disguised as a “diverse” coming of age movie with a Chinese background. Not sure who this movies was made for but won’t be watching again (and wish I hadn’t watched it the first time).

Thanks for posting. Was wondering when/if this was ever coming back.
