So wanting a season 2 of A league of their own. So many stories still to tell. Season 1 was so well written with a team of great actors with a genuine bond. Ended up caring about every one of the characters & their own journey.
How stupid remake into tv show so good enjoy it and love it icon classic Tom Hanks is the best character.
The wonderful remake. Then again think about looking on the superhero renditions of shows they’re making this is a nice change.
