"Footballers' Wives"

Is anyone else becoming addicted to this show? On at 9:30 p.m. Mondays on Ten?

I was skeptical at first, thinking that it was just another run-of-the-mill drama built around a fictional soccer team, but it's looking like a well-done soap.

Would like to see Ten keep airing this show after "Secret Life of Us" when that show returns... might make two hours of wonderful "guilty pleasure" viewing on Monday nights, and worth taping. :D

Cheers,
William
 
And yes, I know that "Footballers'" has two l's... silly fingers of mine. :eek:

Can a moderator please fix the title for me? Thanks in advance...

Cheers,
William
 
It's so trashy and tabloid that one can't help watching it.:o I don't know whether I want to admit watching that rubbish:o - oh well, it's done now.
I would hope no real football team has so many dysfunctional characters. A Wayne Carey-Kelli Stevens type happening would go un-noticed at that club.

Play debuting in Brisbane in a couple of weeks "Football Moll's".

Married to an AFL player with a brother as a RU player and a family background in RL and friends (all female) that between them follow all 3 codes. Or something like that - it was early yesterday morning I was reading it and didn't take too much notice.

Looks like it is going to be good, and a tv production house in Perth has already picked it up and will be filming a pilot based on the play in a couple of months.

If you guys haven't seen/heard of it via the net already, I could dig out the paper and copy it onto here if you are intersted, sometime tomrrow probably.

D.
 
Ok, I watch Neighbours cause of my mum and sister, but Footballers Wives?

I hate that show. Those ugly woman and those ugly soccer players, especially the one with huge ears.

And you actually liked the secret life of us! With that annoying guy who now does...HUNGRY JACKS ADS!

AHHHHHH!!!:eek: :eek: :eek:
 
A pretty stupid show and full of too many blondes. Susie Amy (the Brunette) looks pretty hot though.

Nope but my Dad is addicted to it.
 
Love it. Never watched a soap before.

Apparantly it is huge in England - they have FW parties and try to guess which real footballer each scenario in the plot is based on.
 
The papaer said its so bad it's good. Well they were half right.

Does show what happens when they get megabucks and nothing to fill their spare time.

I have a question though. Their 'home' grounds get used once a fortnight but they hardly ever train on it - have another field somewhere.

I am addicted to this show. It's all a bit of fun, pretty trashy, but classy trash imo.

With Salvatore Biagi and Ian Holmsley under the same roof we are sure for more madcap adventures.
 
i watched it for the first time last night... it was actually not that bad!! well, it was ****ting and pointless, but very entertaining!!! :)
 
The gyms usually are, but due to the wear and tear and the poor weather, the main pitch isn't trained on. The training grounds are often a fair distance from the main stadium due to space restrictions.
 
Yes, I'm addicted - but I don't really enjoy it all that much, ie in the way I love Secret Life or whatever. There's something about it that makes me want to watch it (how about the cute guy...Chardonnay's husband!), but bloody hell, Jason and his wife...arghhh, give me a gun. Yes, it's trashy, but I watch it. How 'real' is it supposed to be?
 
I'm in two minds about this show. I find myself watching it every week but nothing much seems to be happening. I think something big is just around the corner .... hopefully.

You summed it up well, Rocco.

It's crap, yes-- but it's crap that's done well. :D

Mind you, I've also admitted to being a religious watcher of "Melrose Place" back in the '90s, so as far as "guilty-pleasure programming" goes, shows like this and "Secret Life" are right up my alley. :D :D

Cheers,
William
