Time Bandits is an IP literally no one cares about lol
Only super nerds.

I tried watching it for the first time maybe 5 years ago and quit about halfway through.

I think it's one that you need nostalgia to kick in to enjoy. Something similar to Baron Munchausen for myself. It's not a great movie but I watched the shit out of it as a kid.

It will probably have the same issue as Willow: it’s banking on nostalgia while completely missing the mark on why people liked it originally

Athough I haven’t seen the Time Bandits show yet so who knows, maybe they’ll prove the above statement wrong

Don't bother. It could've been a slam dunk, with the "burnout loser professional athlete mentors young guy with tons of talent" and they couldn't help themselves. Sadly it started out decent, and I can't think of any shows about golf like this.

But holy shit they went whole hog on woke retardation. This should be a hard pass for everyone.

Couldnt agree more. People calling this Ted Lasso for golf are insane. The shows arent the same at all other than being about a sport. Ted Lasso was at least good for the first couple seasons. This show turns to shit quickly by episode 3.

The first episode wasn't very interesting so I just stopped after that. And I love golf.
