The series offers a wide range of comedy family events where Lainey tries to gain respect among her classmates. On the other hand, coach Glascott and Coach Mellor have a strong and honest friendly competition where they can be emotionally interested in the math teacher, which is very comedic.
Rough edges are quickly sanded, and yet the players are good - Meadows, especially, seems more valuable to comedy with every new role; they make it possible to look past the homilies.
