Ryan Reynolds can do no wrong. Seriously, I subscribe to his youtube channel just to watch all the ads he makes.

The entire season has finished airing so I finally decided to give it a shot. I like it for what it is. A "real" tale of local boy made good, so to speak. Before watching this, I thought it was a Ryan Reynolds / Hugh Jackman thing, just dicking around with each other. Turns out Hugh isn't in it. It's the dude from Always Sunny in Philadelphia and Mythic Quest. And this whole thing of owning a team was his idea, but he knew he didn't have the finances to keep it afloat if they climbed the rankings into higher tiered organizations, so he needed Ryan's cash to make it work. They became instagram friends or something and that's how they started talking, having never met each other in real life. It's a documentary style series. I like it so far.

They aren't local to them. But the team and all of its players and leadership are locals. But with Always Sunny guy, they pulled out his Philly background. Born and raised out there, and he made good of himself, so they're trying to tell the story that if this guy can make good, the team should also be able to make good.
However, life comes at you fast, and 2nd episode was rough. That said, I'm still enjoying the show.

yeah i liked it a lot more than i thought i would. i started watching because of ryan, but he and rob aren't in it very much. it's much more about the people of wrexham trying to rise above their current station. if i knew ryan and rob were only in it as much as they are i probably wouldn't have watched it, since i don't really care about soccer, but i'm glad i watched it
