Stick

20th century man hits the spot in episode 2nd and Stick is so great not sure why this has 6.9 along with average reviews. Owen Wilson is great as always and the kid that plays Santi is very talented. My mom has been wanting me to watch this it's so well worth it, most apple shows are phenomenal like how HBO has amazing content!

I'm so confused by the hate on Stick it's great entertainment, easy to watch, and well directed. Marc Maron is wonderful in anything I've seen him in. The soundtrack is masterful, this show is so great even though a few things go wrong sometimes I really like it all others should too!

This show is well cast, and endearing. But it's also extremely light and fluffy. The first three episodes are fun in that way shows should be, but at the same time Owen Wilson is playing a variation of every character he's ever played.

You're waiting for the shoe to drop, or the big thing to happen, and it kind of never does. It's the kind of show you put on Sunday afternoon when you need a decent nap and aren't too scared to miss an episode because the "previously on" will fill in the blanks.

If you're looking for something easy and full of surface, this is the show for you. But then again, that's only after the first three episodes. I will happily eat my hat if it turns into something deeper as it goes along.

But hey, the soundtrack to this show is pretty great.

The first few episodes from this show were pretty lame. Lots of the characters could be better. However--it gets better. Starting episode 8 it gets really good. By 9-10, I really started to like the show. Owen Wilson does an amazing job, the kid grows on you. Their relation makes the show worth watching. The first half of the season is like a 6/10, but the later half is much better. Would love to see a second season.

My hopes weren't particularly high with this one as the marketing seemed very lightweight and the first episode in particular included every single washed up star cliche in the book. But as the show goes on and the core premise started to take shape, I soon find myself looking forward to each episode.

Stick has been dubbed 'the golf Ted Lasso' but doesn't quite swing for the same dramatic depths (other than a few standout scenes) and the writing is not quite as tight (whether intentional or not, almost every character has moments where they come across as unlikeable or rude).

However what we do have is a light, breezy watch that doesn't outstay its welcome, and a few moments of euphoria when everything clicks and the show is firing on all cylinders. If you're going throgh a tough time in your life, this might just be the show you need right now.

Bonus points if you're a golf fan - there's plenty of references and the actual golfing itself is shot rather well!

Interesting characters, decent writing, good acting and one snotty millennial actress Lilly Kay just destroys the show and renders it unwatchable. The chemistry between the rest of the cast is good, she is like a permanent oil stain on a racetrack.

Good portrayal of what it is like to be a golfer, the precarious balance between confidence and coming off the rails at any moment. The precarious balance between letting a teenager test himself and providing the safety net when he predictably fails. Owen Wilson is the perfect "former great golfer" - equal measure of chaos, arrogance and neediness.
