I'm officially in my "gotta find all the convos about this show" phase. This show is so excellent in so many ways!
I'm also in that phase! I gotta find all their interviews!!!!!
The best phase once u finish a great show !!! 😭
💯 same
Binged it yesterday. Awesome show! Definitely doing the same 🤣
Same! I didn’t want any spoilers. 😂
Maxine has very quickly become an important character to me. I don't think I've ever felt so seen by a character. Every obstacle she faces is informed by her race, gender, sexuality and ambition and it was truly a blessing to see her story take center stage.
She was truly the best character! At first I thought they were just going to show her briefly to acknowledge the experience of the times (like the nod in the original movie). Then I was worried they were going to have her play on the Peaches, erasing all of that. Not just historically inaccurate, but taking away one of the obstacles that fires her up. Then I thought her story was going to be just this disjointed "othering" of her storyline, running separate from the "main" one. By EP2 I was screaming, "GIVE MAX HER OWN SHOW!" In the end, I love the way they wove the two together, letting Max and Carsen interact where it was believable for the times, and show the two stories in parallel, which just made it all the more jarring and realistic. I still want an Adventures of Max and Clance series, but maybe I'm hoping for way too much!
I tried not to binge it, but that was impossible. The series was excellent and everyone I know that has actually watched it, loved it. I truly hope there’s a season 2!
I tried not to aswel. went to bed at 5am. Season two would be a dream, I can't see the storyline growth ever getting redundant
I did the same thing. I sat down, 10 pm, said, I will watch one or 2 epi, well, I was up until dawn. I can not remember being so invested in a show...and it was the ENTIRE show, not just a coupel charecters...The entire cast was so amazing!
It is impossible...I actually rewatched it after I finished it haha! Never done that in my life.
Since I first replied to your comment, I have watched it 3 times, so far...This is a feel good series that I feel like I have waited my entire life for...ad I am probably older than most of you! I am so in love with the entire cast. I am so invested in those charecters, more so than anything I have ever scene. WHEN IS SEASON 2????
@@lisass1969 I love that and plan to watch it again over the weekend myself! It can only help, as the viewership will determine if it gets picked up. We may be of a similar age and it’s incredible to have a quality series like this. What we’ve waited for indeed! 🙂
Having now watched the entire season, what Abbi says at the very end about D'Arcy's delivery of the "I thought so" line at the end of the pilot makes SO much sense! Like I can completely see how the writing for Greta evolved between the pilot and the rest of the series purely based on D'Arcy's delivery of that line, and I'm so glad they were able to account for the actors' takes on the characters in the pilot in the writing for the rest of the season!
D'arcy Carden is really charming in this show, and Abbi and Chanté are great leads! can't wait for season 2
Yikes
@@dustyvaughn528 men truly cannot cope with the existence of things that are not made for them, huh?
Cringe alert!
@@brunagardel4047 I didn't care at all. I liked this show so much. It's just uneducated white men feel entitled and expect the world revolve around them. D'Arcy was great in The Good Place but a League of Their Own is her show, she's the star, and I hope she gets a couple of seasons. I mean, who doesn't like a little girl on girl action?
@@alpinemustang Cringe Alert indeed.... Seriously, Doody, shouldn't you be attacking the local FBI office right now?😀
I’m in my “I just found a new show I need to know everything about it” and I’m really enjoying it cause I love this cast
As a young latina queer woman always loving league of their own this series was a dream come true for me Can’t wait for season 2 !!!
It's pretty trash
@@interceptingfist5682 Did you find Hunter Biden's Laptop in those boxes the FBI took?
Yassss! Can't wait!
@@interceptingfist5682 Somebody's triggered
@@interceptingfist5682 It’s perfect
An absolute triumph! Abbi and Chanté are fantastic leads and Carden was absolutely *phenomenal* as Greta. I sincerely, sincerely appreciated the balance between showing the very harsh reality of being queer during this era with the joy and victorious moments of finding community despite that. I can't wait for season 2 because there is so much more to tell with these characters! This is a true testament to what excellent media can be made when queer women and women of color are steering the ship behind the scenes and on the screen.
I greatly appreciate the balance of sad realism with the happier moments too. It's difficult to find that, especially with lesbian/gay characters set in the past. It felt like a very respectful portrayal of multiple groups. Told in a way which showed the weight of the prejudice & barriers of the time but also the strength of those affected & the happy moments they were still able to create.
The stand out performances for me were D'Arcy Carden as Greta &
Gbemisola Ikumelo as Clance. They both felt like fully formed characters with charisma & genuine personality. Wonderful performances I hope to see more of.
i just watched this series through like 4 times in a row. i loved it. im so disappointed they arent making the second season to finish it off. its brilliant
My wife and I have already watched the First Season 3 times. Love it
I had no idea how amazing the series was going to be. I just thought it was going to be another remake that didn't need to happen, and that I'd be turning it off before the end of the 1st episode. Yeah, I binged the entire season all last night. This was done so well, with so many stories that needed to be told, and in a genuine light.
one of the greatest shows ever
i can't get enough of it
i want season 2 right now
This show shines light on so many topics which are often overlooked yet it never feels forced. It is so easy to slip into the perspective of women who had to fight so hard. While watching every episode you just reflect on a lot of issues you might not normally think about to much, especially if you are not part of that minority. Great show overall I loved it so much and really think there is room for more stories in futher seasons!
the show was absolutely brilliant, the last episode made me cry
I loved this show! and I'm recommending it to everyone who asks me for something new to watch. The representation of women and the lesbian/bi community is great! The racism of the time.. all the characters give a show of interpretation! I can't wait for the second season.
Excellent series, it takes stories not recognized in the 1992 film and expands the narrative. Based on real events but showing characters that are mixtures of experiences, it provides an emotional representation of LGBT women in the 40's. Bringing different types of relationships, from romantic to friendship, these are funny, interesting and crying episodes at the same time. Created and produced by queer people it's a wonderful series, I'm looking forward to season 2!
This was so awesome to learn and see how y’all are behind the scenes after watching such a magnificent show that hit me in all the right ways
Loved this conversation around the table. Such a relaxed atmosphere that allowed everyone to contribute wonderful input. 👍
This show was so amazing.. it made me smile..feel sad..laugh.. thrilled..to shed a tear in the last episode where they all support Jo .. it was fun.. love.. sadness.. regrets..own up your life.. so much more.. really.. I am waiting for next season
After watching the show twice and now watching this i really, reaaaallly can't wait for it to be renewed. What a special thing you guys did.
I fell inlove with the characters' stories and I need the season 2 immediately
Just binged watched the whole series and already want to watch it again! love it!
On my third watch of those show and I really like how supportive greta is toward carson from the very beginning. You can also see her intrigue in the first glance she has of carson.
I decided to just start the first episode or 2 at 11pm and then 7 and 1/2 hours later I ended up finishing the whole show didn’t get any sleep that night but who cares because it was amazing
same, and now i am still not done, because now the interviews !!
Max and Clance are my new favorite TV BFFs! 🥰
Amé todo esto!!🥰🥰 estoy que alucino con esta serie hace 3 días que estoy en este loop de necesito más , quiero ver más.🥰🤩👏🏼👏🏼
Loved it! So wonderful there is queer, Latinx, and African American representation, unlike the movie. I'm already looking forward to season 2!
I've watched it 3 times and it's a MASTERPIECE!! If there's not a season 2, I'll seriously cry. Hard ugly cry.
Only 2 episodes in and I'm already in love with this show!
Chante Adams owns this role and her comments above are great!
I just finished A LEAGUE OF THEIR OWN. Please there had to be MORE, LOTS MORE!!!
I truly admired the way that the black families were portrayed. FINALLY, Coates Street in Coatesville PA was just like these families. Hard workers. Beautiful families. Religious foundations. I HOPE THERE IS MORE!!!👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Ooh when she says "what if, right here, right now, we forget the rules"
Beautiful video. Thank you. They're all adorable
Love this cast and binged the show all weekend. I can’t wait for the next season!
We NEED a season 2’
D'Arcy should definitely win all of the awards!
The best series of the year!
THEY ARE SO FREAKING CUTE❤️😭😍
We need season 2 NOW!
its beeen soooooo long where is it already ?
It was cool watching you guys film the movie in my area.
SEASON 2 COME ONNN PLSSS
Uncle Bertie was amazing omg all of ya 💗
i could watch them talk for hours!!!

Im in love with this show!!!
Watched the whole series in 3 days! LOVED IT! I’m recommending it to all my softball friends! 😉
This is awesome, I loved tha movire and never thought about a show for it but it's perfect idea :)
I loved this show so much!! one of my faves
Absolutely loved it. Thank you so much for making this show! ⚾️
Just being honest here...😤🤦♂️

I was so skeptical about this and by end of ep. 1 I was sold; y'all made me a believer. Roberta Colindrez & Chanté Adams are fierce talent on the rise - excited for them. Carson + Greta are definitely the new "Will they or won't they?" of primetime TV🍿🤩🔥😜
haven't even got to ep 3 yet but hoping for more Meg stalter (her comedy is really growing on me). don't sleep on her 🤩
chante adams i love you
Totally binged it!
I binged it so I can finally watch the interviews
Love the show! Waiting for season 2!
Love this series. So hope season 2 is on the way!
Love this show! I want amazon to release bts of their baseball practice please!!
The Show is Great and The Actresses are so great.
The conditions of women in the past was so NOT good. They had to fight for their Rights & Choices.
I have never seen a series on baseball let alone women baseball, it was so amazing omg I want season 2, everyone nailed their characters be it Greta, Carson, each and all of em 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻💓💓💓💓💓 they showed so much of good life changing stuff , be it married women working, be it girls persuing their dream of playing baseball, be it queer in that era, and how queers were treated back then, the black and white racial difference ah, this show gave alot ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ realest issues 🤍
Watching first ep,so much fun,thx
officially ready for season two!!
It is so fun to have a show about sports that is just all heart, I've missed that in movies/tv! And all the relationships are so pitch perfect that you can't help rooting for all of them, even the complicated ones like between Max and her mom
Have you seen the original movie?
Yes!!!!!
I so f**king LOVE this series.... I am rooting for season 2. I'd really like to address this directly with the powers the be at Prime but I haven't figured out how to connect with the right people yet. Anybody??? Anybody???
That’s a great show. Love it. This deserve a lot
The show needs to be renewed for season 2!!!!!!!!
Also lol is that Abbi's neighbour / roommate on broad city 😂
What?!!!
Ready for season twoooo pleaaase
It feels a little random, but it is def a classic though
Reading the amazon reviews for this amazing show is so disheartening. Those bigots need to watch this interview
this show is so wonderful
Cannot wait for season 2!
I LOVE THEM
I love this show!! Is sooooo good...
yes please
More more please
3:09 !
Omg I watched it 2 days back and this show was amazing 💖💖💖💖
The director looks like the roommate from broad city
This show, the chemistry, the actors, the love, the stories!!!! THIS SHOW IS THE BEST! The best queer representation out there! Thank you for this! PLEASE find a way to release a second season!
Well I had never heard of the film so. Doesn't bother me that it's a remake.
And I've heard it isn't really anything like the film at all.
❤❤❤❤
Love this show so far!
WATCH A SECRET LOVE!
Dude sounds like John mulaney if he was about to burp
You are incorrect sir.
He sounds like carol channing.😂
I'm sorry, but what's wrong with saying the word lesbian? 🙂
??? Maybe it sounds too binary?
@@knoahbody69 🤡
Because not everyone woman who loves women is a lesbian, bisexual, pansexual etc people exist
🤍
#Diversity done well.
I wonder how many of the baseball shots are real and how many are cgi
I heard they trained and whatnot, but I bet certain shots of the ball are, but that's fine
@@allyrose6437 totally fine! I just like knowing that they're now decent at baseball haha
@@yariiray158 yeah they can play for sure, they ain't making impressive speeds or anything I guess, which understandable lmao
@@allyrose6437 lmao yea makes sense but at least it's not all fake
The problem I had with it is they didn't need CGI 30 years ago to make it believable and it looked much better. The CGI was very distracting, gloves popping and balls speeding through the air sounds like they're throwing 90 and every swing or throw was a close up shot so there's no illusion of continuous plays.
Oh and most of these comments are generic bot comments.
You mean like you?
@@knoahbody69 🤡
I totally thought the mother and friend were going to start making out at the end.
huh?
This reboot is a just a romanticization of cheating. Geena Davis version was more about female empowerment and a real love story. Charlie doesn't deserve what Carson put him through.
spoiler alert they all come out as lesbians.
Only half of them lol
Can never replace Dottie… original was the best
There is no Dottie in this, mostly new characters. The coach isn't even the same as Tom Hanks' character
@@kellypat125 yea I know the show is horribly.. the movie is a classic.
If you actually watched this, you would know that the point was not to remake or replace the movie. You're allowed to not like it, but come on, man.
No one is trying to replace Dottie… your homophobia is showing.
@@jays.4552 story is average at best and they didn’t even let Max play…. She had to go on a globetrotter type of team
I find it very sad nobody is talking about the 1992 film since while I havent seen the movie of the original, this feels like another case of 2016 Ghostbusters in which they didnt even attempt to understand why the original book or film was successful.
Some people here are talking about it somewhat, but man without the backup of Tom Hanks, Madonna, Rosie O'Donell or such, even watching the show, this isnt how the 40s acted and the cursing is extemely questionable.
Im watching it as we speak but I dont think the film was ever............questionable to say the least.
Makes me sad that nobody has seen the 1992 classic as old school fans would say (I dont know why these shows are trying so damn hard to replace the original classic source material when the original film was an instant classic. Its like remaking Back to the Future but it has Justin Bieber and there was not only cursing, but the doc is a teenager girl who Marty wants to have sex with. That shit aint flying and Robert Zummekas would be hellishly pissed if that ever happened).
Skipping this like Paper Girls (another bad Amazon show that has the worst ending ever next to Invincible and wont get another season. Great work Amazon Prime you just failed again here).
This saddens me.
Refreshing? My ass. #GoWokeGoBroke
I highly doubt that. This series definitely is though!
You're right. You need to save that money for tRump's legal defense fund. He's gonna need it.

It's more historically accurate than the movie
Oh honey you're so sad.
This was not needed. There are many people who do not like this. It looks stupid and unappealing. I think I will rewatch the movie now.
So should things not be made unless EVERYONE likes it??! 🤦🏽♀️
If it’s not for you, don’t watch. This isn’t a hard concept. Sheesh.
@@thenebean9 the problem is it's an unnecessary remake. Should've just done something original

@@knoahbody69 🤡
@@interceptingfist5682 it’s not a remake. It’s more an expansion on what the movie was, without rehashing the movie at all. There are plenty of other remakes and movies with way too many sequels to sit here and bitch about this one.
Refreshing reboot? What a joke. Refreshing means woke BS
you wouldnt know since you havent watched the show but since its women centric its obviously bad isnt it mate?
@@sunlight4880 you obviously don't know because the original was mostly woman based
@@alintampa You think he cares? He's too busy blogging about 87k IRS Agents.
@@alintampa yeah but gay women is woke bs?
@@knoahbody69 true slay
This show lacks the authenticity of the movie. The 1992 film felt so true to the world war 2 generation. They looked the part and acted the part. The series feels like a bunch women from 2022 dressing up like world war 2 generation women for Halloween. It’s really hard to buy into.
Were you alive during WWII or are you posting what Alex Jones wants you to post?
@@knoahbody69 🤡
it tanked.
gee, I wonder why?
It's actually good the only reason it has bad reviews is because bitter guys rated it low before it came out. The show was more historically accurate anyway
