Watch Shrinking on Apple TV
If you are a fan of Ted Lasso, there is a new, fun comedy on Apple TV called Shrinking that is written by the same people. While not a soccer (nor sports) TV show, a lot of the same witty, feel good humor shines through in Shrinking. Shrinking stars Jason Segel, Jessica Williams, and Harrison…

Watch the Bill Russell: Legend Documentary on Netflix
Bill Russell was one of the most famous NBA players of all time, even though he played in the 1950s-1960s. Every NBA fan knows him, and even most casual sports fans have heard his name in some capacity (either because of his 11 rings or his civil rights activism off the court). I knew of…

Using CrunchyRoll to Watch Anime
I used to watch anime on Netflix or some other websites (if you watch anime, you probably know what I am talking about), but I recently began subscribing to CrunchyRoll’s “Mega Fan” plan ($9.99/month). Compared to CrunchyRoll, Netflix has a small collection of anime in the US, and only has mostly older seasons for the…

Alice in Borderland Season 2 is a Must Watch!
Alice in Borderland season 1 was one of my favorite Japanese shows, and I always thought it was way better than the Squid Game (similar genres, but Alice in Borderland never got the same recognition globally). Season 2 of Alice in Borderland was a continuation of season 1, which had left off on a bit…

Best TV Shows to Watch on Hulu: Welcome to Wrexham
I’m not a huge soccer fan, although with the World Cup going on I have been watching more soccer recently than ever before. Welcome to Wrexham though, is a show that like Ted Lasso, transcends soccer. Welcome to Wrexham is a real-life story about the Wrexham Football Club, which was recently bought by Ryan Reynolds…

Best Anime to Watch: Classroom of the Elite
Classroom of the Elite is an anime that was recommended to me by the Cruncyhroll algorithm, and it did not disappoint. Classroom of the Elite is a short anime right now (still coming out, but only 2 seasons and 24 episodes that have been released), so it is a good time to start before season…

Best TV Shows to Watch on Netflix: Cyberpunk Edgerunners
Cyberpunk Edgerunners is a recently released anime on Netflix based off of the popular video game Cyberpunk. I never was able to finish Arcane (the animation series based off the video game League of Legends), but I would imagine it is a somewhat similar concept. Cyberpunk Edgerunners is an anime, but the animation is a…

Best Anime to Watch: Aoashi
One of my favorite recent anime is called Aoashi, and it is a soccer anime. There are a lot of similarities to Haikyuu, although I would say Aoashi is less dramatic and not as over exaggerated as Haikyuu (both good and bad). Aoashi is about a soccer player named Aoi Ashito and his rise throughout…

Best Japanese Shows to Watch: Dragon Zakura 2
Dragon Zakura 2 is a sequel to the popular show Dragon Zakura (it came out in 2005 though, so I have not seen that one yet). The star of Dragon Zakura 2 is Hiroshi Abe, who was voted the most popular actor in Japan last year. Dragon Zakura 2 is about a lawyer/teacher who uses…

Best Anime to Watch: Ousama Ranking
Ousama Ranking is a feel-good anime, with the star of the show being Bochi, a mute/deaf prince. Although Bochi does not say a single word throughout the show, he is a great character and someone who is easy to root for. Ousama Ranking’s feels similar to an anime version of The Alchemist, and is an…
