Ballers

I never thought I would watch something like this and I am rating it 8! Also this is my first comment on Imbd. But after a few episodes I couldn't stop. Political, entertaining and touching - not many tv series can do that..

The Rock is amazing as well as most of the actors. All the characters evolve and every episode is taking you to a place where you didn't have a clue about. I have learned something new- thanks.

I only made this review because it might get people who normally wouldn't watch this kind of series to give it a shot. And I don't want to them to miss the chance to see something totally different.

Loved the show until season 4. The writers political agenda Is so obvious it sickens me.So I deleted the series and won't watch it again

I really enjoyed Ballers as it was such a fun show and I already miss it! The Rock and Rob Corddry lead an excellent cast with a lot of amazing cameos throughout the series! It's about a former superstar football player named Spencer Strasmore (The Rock) who becomes a financial advisor/manager to other NFL players. Along with his partner Joe (Rob Corddry) they become very successful and start their own company in Miami. Even though Joe warns him not to he becomes much more than just an financial advisor to his players and helps them with their lives and all the problems they get into to. It's a lot like Entourage and even though it wasn't quite as good as that it's still absolutely worth watching!

So i watched all 5 seasons of Ballers, and i really liked this show but... it's also a show that doesn't know what it wants to be.

It started as a comedy, and it was good but at some point it became much more serious and darker.

I don't mind that they wanted to tackle some more serious issues, but i think they lost a lot of their audience at that point because that's not most people were watching the show.

Also, i really don't like how so much happens off the screen between seasons. I like it more when a new season starts when the last one ended, or it's like you've missed a bunch of episodes.

If you push through the first couple of episode this becomes an amazing show. Funny. Easy. Entertaining.

The Rock really stole my heart.

All the characters were so real, so human.
