This is a rare show. Interesting, funny, moving, authentic and above all heartfelt. It may surprise people to know this is much less about Reynolds and McElhenney and more about a community, a forgotten part of the UK, local characters and a football (soccer) set-up that is immensely likeable (when compared with the grossed-out British Premier League). That is not to say that Ryan Reynolds' renowned wit doesn't pepper the series, but it's not the main course.

This could so easily have been a goofed-up Disney show full of scripted laughs, but it's far from it. Instead we see the Hollywood stars build a genuine empathy and passion that infects an entire town. The real stars are in Wales and they won't have previously have an IMBD back history. You should watch it.
