Lakers: Tiempo de ganar

Very entertaining. Offbeat direction and exaggerated characters keep it full of surprises. Forget trying to compare it to reality or searching for a political stance; it's just fast paced fun and entertainment. Just relax and enjoy it.

Maybe the best sports show I've ever watched. Wonderfully written and wildly entertaining.

The first season was fantastic and I was so excited for the second, but obviously highly disappointed to see how they had to end it.

So much garbage out there and something so fantastic gets canceled?

This shows the absolute lack of foresight to see ratings beyond the now.

This could have been a classic for the ages that would be watched over and over like Breaking Bad or Game of Thrones but in the sports genre.

The casting and writing are all top-notch. I recommended this show to anyone that will listen.

Best thing they put out since Game of Thrones.

HBO=Has Been Organization.

Now I freakin loved this show, the atmosphere, mood, music, actors, directors, writers all a total slam dunk. But yet again, HBO pulls the plug. Haven't seen a piece like this since Vinyl. And yeah, HBO put that out of rotation too.

Apparently it's due to lack of viewers and poor marketing. So what does it take to get a great and solid show to run several seasons? Atleast let the cast and writers complete the third season.

But then again, I guess we live in a world now, where there's 19 different reality shows about Kim Kardashian's tail. Or about two overweight sisters competing about who can eat their way into an oversized coffin first.

What can ya say?

Pull the plug!

I don't know if every detail is correct and I don't care. This show is FUN. The depiction of jerry west is hysterical; I wouldn't be surprised if jerry has already sued the show. I never rooted for the Lakers though I always admired their style. This series takes you back to a time when sports was about competition and fun and not about slogans on the court.

The decision to cancel the show is still mindbogglng to me. I thought they received positive reviews from critics and fans.

Anyway, I really enjoyed the show. I might be biased as I'm a big Lakers' fan. But I think the combinaton of well established stars (Reilly, Brody, Clarke) and the least known ones did work. I really like Quincy Isaiah acting as Magic, it's perfect. The different pace between first and second season might be confusing but it's not a major flaw. The cinematography is also very good and it fits the narrative of the show. It's Lakers, 1980's Lakers, the showtime.

Again, I'm still annoyed with the show cancellation. I thought there could be more saucy stories or plots to be developed in the following seasons.
