21 Thunder

Pilot episode definitely kept my interest, especially after the first 10 minutes of character introductions. Suspenseful, good possibility for upcoming story lines, good looking cast, and good writing. Hometown bias because the show's filmed in Montreal, and doesn't shy away from that fact--a lot of American shows use Montreal to film in, but pretend they're set elsewhere.Definitely will watch next episode. Television pilots are almost never this good.

I gave this two episodes before giving up. This is supposed to be about a U-21 team in the MLS.

First of all: barely anyone of the players look like they're 21. A fair lot of them look almost 30. It can't be that hard to find some actors to fit the bill especially since some of them are overacting as if their life depended on it. To add to that the over-the-top situations half of them find themselves after just two episodes may fit a soap opera, they shouldn't be in here.

Second: if you're going to make a series about football/soccer at least get some people in there that can actually play. The training sequences are horrible, players can barely control a ball, let alone pass it. Same for the matches: what's this obsession with overhead kicks? It's like making a series about basketball where every other game is decided on a full court shot.

If you're watching this on Netflix, chances are Club de Cuervos is on there as well. Which is much much better.

Wow! double AND TRIPLE Wow! I am always watching for female characters, in new shows, who have real agency - who act with ambition and ADVENTUROUSNESS on the factors which make up their world! Lara and Christie are fascinating!!!! I haven't seen women like them before on TV. Smart, funny, super unique. I am not sure what Fatima, who I have only seen so far in episode 3, will turn out to do....but for now i will just say that I love her dancing, and she made a vivid first impression on Junior and his brother!! She looks wonderful! I wonder what she will do/be/become. An amazing new face on national TV. And stunning in the extreme is the owner of the team. PERFECT agency!!! Where do you find these people? All these women are gems.....I will follow their destinies on this series with the greatest interest. And of course the GUYS who make up the team too!!!!

Very bad and I love football. Maybe they should let the English redo the whole damn thing. I could not watch another episode beyond the first.

Bad Writing and bad acting. How anyone rates this more than 1 is beyond me. Watch it if you are very young and.... on second thought just do not watch it at any age. It has no redeeming points. The show has been contrived to take advantage of football lovers. It fails on all points.

I do not know that why i watched the full season 1. May be just because of football. But truly speaking, this is one of the worst football related TV shows. Unnecessary sex scene, no mystery, no good plot with football, nothing. Cast are so below average. Average editing and below average direction ! ! There are lots of good sports related TV shows and movies but this one will give you pain in your mind !
