Spinning Out

I couldn't get enough of this,I hope they bring a season 2 out.

I loved this series! It hits on mental health which is close to my heart due to losing a friend to Suicide and my best friend being bi-polar!! Mental health needs to be talked about and this show did it and did it WELL!!! I've experienced the manic side with my friend. Way to go Netflix!! Keep bringing more like this

Between the beautiful choreographed skating routines and gorgeous costumes the series shows the hardships of the sport and everyday life and family. Well developed characters with a small backstory for each main character in each episode which I enjoyed. It discusses mental health, the tribulations of race and wealth, familial relationships, sex and friendship. I really hope the show continues on to another season!

So I was a little bored and I came around this on Netflix. Thought it was going to be a light fun show to watch. Planned on watching one episode that evening Bing watched the full 10 episodes on one night. It was surprisingly good! I got really drawn into the story. I really enjoyed it!

I am sure most are going to say it is the same old story-a night time soap-but it is not. This story seems to jump back and forth from just that-a story-then some reality thrown in. Touches on some very serious issues and they are presented well. There is just enough skating to keep skating fans happy and non-skating fans from being bored.

Some good actors involved. I just love January Jones-perfect as usual. I hope if there is a 2nd season that they scrap Johnny Weir-do we really have to put up with him. He is not a good actor-in fact he is not an actor-he does not fit in well-he is the reason I cannot watch figure skating-when he is the commentator, it's always about him and his god like statements that distract from the skater and their talents.
