Heels

I was unsure this show would work. I'm a wrestling fan, and I know how hard it is to portray the art form, and those who perform it. But this show continues to surprise me week after week. I loved Amell as Oliver Queen on Arrow, and some of his other work. He is perfect in this role and he carries it well but I expected that. What has surprised me is the talent of the surrounding cast, especially the women. Alison Luff, Mary McCormick, and Kelli Berglund are killing it on a weekly basis. There have been some awesome cameo performances that wrestling fans will appreciate and even former NFL star James Harrison is solid and entertaining. My favorite character is Wild Bill, who is played by the great Chris Bauer. The Wire fans will remember him as Frank Sobotka. I just remember him for always being a top notch talent, whatever the role. These great performances are aided by some solid storylines that will keep you invested in the show and the characters.

My only complaints would be the character of Ace Spade, played by Alexander Ludwig, and the awful opening credits and the song that goes with it. Other than that, I thoroughly enjoy this show. I hope it gets another season.

Not a wrestling fan but this is pretty good. Hope this get's a second season because it's much more than wrestling, it's a good drama that makes you think on what you wish or goals you want to achieve in this life.

I grew up with my dad and brother watching wresting, but I never really paid much attention to it. Heels starts strong and draw you in right away. I don't think you need to be a wresting fan to enjoy this. Ultimately, this is the story of rivalry between two brothers and anyone that has siblings can understand to that.

I hate that Starz canceled this show on a cliffhanger, so if you like a complete storyline don't start heels like I did. I loved the two seasons and I don't know what show to compare it to maybe Kingdom and the movie fighting with my family. I really hope another Network like Netflix or Prime picks this show up and gives it the two or three more seasons it deserves. Alof of people don't have Starz, if it was on Netflix it would be a really popular hit show guaranteed. Someone please let Amell and company compete this show, I mean Netflix did it for Manifest but they blew that one big time.....

I just finished Season 1 of Heels and came away pretty impressed. It's a show that's absolutely worth watching. I came into the show already a fan of both Stephen Amell & Alexander Ludwig but this show made even a bigger fan. They both do an incredible job here as does the supporting cast. Those two play two brothers in a Georgia community that own, run and participate in an independent wrestling company. It shows the rivalry between the brothers both in the ring and in their regular lives as they try to grow the company. I already knew about the wrestling world and how independent organizations struggle to keep up but you don't have to be a fan of wrestling to enjoy this show. The writing is just as good as the acting as it will pull you in from the very first episode. I can't wait for another season.
