Swagger

Great writing, Great Acting, Real life stories. The creative team has done an a amazing job with this show. I've watched all episodes and thought episode 7 was the best, until I saw episode 8. Can't wait to see how it ends.

I really love this show, and how everything is progressing. The story telling is nice, and the idea of it is just good and new for me.

But, and thats where things need to just be said. The story of being muslim, and the conversation in that part is quite poor. The prayer was wrong and the conversation is just what are you even talking about. I think, as a muslim that was a huge slap on my face. The very disrespectful way of just showing how muslims live or pray or talk. The conversation between the father and son in season 2, is just stupid. Any muslim can relate that that part is not real. Well that's my only comment. If you want to show muslims and islam, you need a muslim guy to rewrite the muslim part of a character, at least to show the real part, not being very fake like that.

I love this show! I live in B'more and they did a great job capturing the interpersonal drama as well as the struggles.

It's refreshing to see a show mix races and not attack either one. I'm tired of seeing shows push some political agenda, but Swagger tells a story and forces you to connect with the characters.

My title says it all. O'Shea takes this from a mediocre watch to a fun watch.

Other notes:

-The basketball is believable enough to where it doesn't ruin the show.

-I like the emphasis on social media, and how it drives a lot of decisions today, and how much of a negative impact it can have.

-Because this show revolves around sports, you have to suffer through some typical cliches, like the evil white coach who has a backwards baseball hat on at all times. Or the star player is selfish, makes his teammates mad episode that always occurs.

Overall, cliches aside, I've enjoyed the first 3 episodes and I look forward to more. Apple + is really starting to find its groove with its original content.

Strong series! Great acting with a full and meaningful storyline. There are several mini stories going on at the same time to keep the ball rolling. Can't wait for the next episode.
