Pitch

I loved this show! The plot was inspiring. I find baseball to be a boring sport to watch, but Pitch has made baseball exciting--I can't get enough of it. I disagree with everyone who says this is a show for "feminists." This show has something for everybody. The female lead, Kylie Bunbury, is an amazing actress and her character is incredibly layered, as well as the rest of the cast. As the series went on, the plot got better and better. The relationships develop well, and the chemistry between the leads is electric. They have each other's backs on the field and off, and the pace at which the show reveals story details keeps you engaged. Season two is something to look forward to! All in all, I highly recommend this show.

Canadian born model, actress Kyle Bunbury gives the new baseball show on Fox exactly what it needs to develop into a must see show. Rarely do any of us hit a home right out of the gate; but through patience, consistency and excellent writing television shows eventually give us a reason to watch. It is the same as watching 9 innings of a baseball game; the best games start slow and end with an amazing finish. Bunbury is from Minnesota and finds her center there. A compliment to her and our progressive, gorgeous state. If you're not a baseball fan don't bother turning in because the beauty of this show will be lost on you. Her recognizable, talented co-stars like Michael Beach, Ali Slater, Dan Lauria and Mark-Paul Gosselaar all contribute to the success of this show. Throw in real life commentator Hank Buck for authenticity and humor. Easily one of the best new shows of the season. Go Kylie! We are cheering for you!

Perfect Pitch! Get it!

Ideal show for the #MeToo era. Too bad more people didn't watch. I really enjoyed it.

For a television series to work you need to have list of characters you can get to enjoy watching. Not all have to do everything in every scene to make you go wow or be funny. The list of actors and actresses in the show have a good chemistry on screen, the script is set at a great pace with nice touches of emotion and twists. You want to believe in the end that all will come out for whoever you are most convinced by and the way the script has the characters interacting so far is a pleasure to see. This a show about hope and if you work hard enough then your aspirations can come true. The world surrounds itself with negativity far too much and we as viewers are looking for flaws rather than celebrating a great story line, with plot twists and the occasional smile along the way. Pitch has so far managed this and I have great hopes that it will to the end. In the four episodes watched, never has a scene dragged on too long or the dialogue for the next scene been too fast paced to make it confusing. A TV show is there to entertain and this one does. Give it a go.

Ginny Baker (Kylie Bunbury) is the first female MLB player and the new pitcher for the San Diego Padres. Mike Lawson (Mark-Paul Gosselaar) is the veteran catcher on the last leg of his celebrated career. Oscar Arguella (Mark Consuelos) is the GM. Outfielder Blip Sanders (Mo McRae) and his wife Evelyn (Meagan Holder) are Ginny's friends. Al Luongo (Dan Lauria) is the gruff, old-fashion manager. Ginny's father is dead and her brother is desperate to cash in on her fame. Amelia Slater (Ali Larter) quits her job to be solely her manager with assistant Eliot (Tim Jo).

This could have been a bad gimmicky TV show. The use of real MLB teams helps a lot but it's Bunbury that makes this show works. She has great sincerity and terrific charms. Gosselaar is now a veteran of TV acting and uses it to deliver a veteran performance. This is a solid show although it only lasted one season with ten episodes.
