Fußball-Eltern

A good comedy based on situations in reality Arent easy to make and this show proofs it. None of the characters are funny or you can have a connection with. Sure you do recognize all the stereotype parents on the sidelines, but here it doesnt work. The characters are too flat. Luckily there are only 6 30 minuten episodes, but it says a lot I havent laughed a single time during these 3 hours. The writer of this series has proven herself in the past, but this time she focussed too much on her own role she was playing, which causes all other actors had no space to do something with their roles. Too bad, since the idea had potential.

I had high hopes for Football Parents-a show that promised to blend comedy and heartfelt moments with the chaotic world of youth sports. Instead, I got a shallow, tone-deaf mess that confuses yelling with humor and clichés with storytelling.

From the first episode, it's clear the writers are leaning hard on tired tropes: the overbearing dad, the clueless mom, the "quirky" coach who's just annoying. Not a single character feels real or worth rooting for. The dialogue is awkward, the jokes land with a thud, and any attempt at emotional depth is smothered by melodrama or eye-roll-worthy life lessons.

Worse, the show seems to have no idea what audience it's trying to reach. It's too immature for adults and too bland for teens. And don't even get me started on the pacing-half the scenes feel like filler, and by episode three, I was checking how much time was left more often than watching.

If you're looking for a show that captures the humor and heart of parenting in sports, look elsewhere. Football Parents is a fumble from start to finish.

Going to watch full of anticipation because ...lice mothers. But unfortunately, this series is sadly bad. All clichés are taken out of the closet and incredibly thickened and glued to characters, making you rather think you're looking at a failed farce. This is just really not fun. If this is Netflix worthy, then everyone can crawl behind their laptop for a week and go wild without wondering if so many over the top scenes still seem credible. I can't escape the impression that Ilse Warringa thought; I have a good series as a reference and can now easily cash in. Think she has now lost her credit with football parents.

This is a solid comic series. I would love to see it having season 2. It wasn't THAT good in the first half of the show because the audience are still seeing the parents who are annoying and unlikable. Most parents' characters are superficial and single-layered particularly in episode 1 and 2. However, the magic of the show is it brings the audience into the kids' perspective. From the second half of the show, you start to realize the show is not to seriously talk about how football parents parent, but joyfully talk about how football kids are being kids despite the dysfunctional parents. It has a warm and fairytale-like ending. You want to know what will happen to the team next. Also Ilse Warringa contributed incredibly fun screenplay!!

So please do not let haters stop you producing season 2. It is fun to watch! We should be more like kids than parents.

I am deaf. I find it funny i laughed a lot. I am hoping to see Season 2. They did awesome job. Sweet mom and sweet boy remind of my aunt and cousin. I love them to death and always cheer me up. This is my new favorite so far and football parents are so judge what i dislike in real life. But in this show it show how silly they are and being randomly taking too serious over games. Boys supposed to have fun and enjoy as boys. Not Parents lol. They need to chilling out and support like sweet mom is super supportive. She should be best actress and best football mom supportive. Love her for that lol.
