Summary
Reviewers say 'A League of Their Own' is lauded for its diverse representation, nuanced storytelling, and historical accuracy. The show expands on the original movie's themes, highlighting personal stories and social issues like LGBTQ+ representation and racial inequality. However, some critics argue it strays from the original's baseball focus and lacks historical authenticity. Complaints about anachronistic elements and overemphasis on social issues arise. Acting and character development receive mixed feedback, with compelling performances for some and shortcomings for others.

I don't understand the bad reviews!!! I think the show is well written and has a lot of heart. I like that there are multiple storylines and they incorporate a lot of important topics. I would like to note that these storylines aren't about being "woke"- as some reviews have stated. All of the topics and issues included have always been around! So, sit back and enjoy the show!!
I've binged it twice since it was released and couldn't find a single thing I didn't like even on the second time around. It's funny, heart-warming, brilliantly produced,
well written, well scored and well acted. Has the right amount of angst to pay off and there was no 'misery for misery's sake', which ruins so many other shows made today. This seems to have been written with the audience in mind, rather than to be groundbreaking or arty, and I mean that in the best possible way.
I wish I could erase it from my brain and watch it again for the first time. Loved it.

Enjoyable series! Great representation across the board. Lots of humor and heart. If you enjoy shows like Mrs. Maisel or Hacks or anything based around women, especially LGBTQ women (of all backgrounds), you'll enjoy this one. Highly recommended.
And this show is the best show I've seen all year. Immediately addicted. Cup filled up and overflowing with gratitude for the queer stories told in this show. Deserves all the praise. Thank you for making a life changing masterpiece.
It's funny, it's well written, it's got great casting! It's got heart too, I don't know what more you could want! Excellent show! I''my always up for an all women cast, but they really did well casting the right women, in this one.
