I don't care what you guys think, The Bronx is Burning is my new favorite ESPN show, despite me hating the yankees. The fact that I hate the yankees doesn't stop me from thinking that they have a great history (especially considering they have, uh, 26 world series titles, and 39 AL pennants), they are also the only team to have a Hall of Famer at every position.
But enough about the yankees, the new show on ESPN (new episode airs every Tuesday) entertains me, although, it is a little cheesy, if you look at the costumes closely they look really cheesy. Reggie Jackson's (played by Daniel Sunjata) hair you can tell is fake, and same with Steinbrenner's (played by Oliver Platt). But I do like Billy Martin (played by John Turturro) in this show. This show, is far from perfect, but it is good enough for me to sit down every Tuesday at ten, and watch.
The main reason I watch this show is because I learn alot about the yankees in this time period (the show takes place 15 years before I was even born). And I haven't researched much about the yankees from before the 1990's, all I know is they have the best history in the league.
I don't get why they put "Son of Sam" in there. I know that it was going on at the same time, in the same town, but they just messed up the whole plot by putting it in there. Well, anyways, I think that this is the best show on ESPN right now. Does anyone remember the show Bonds on Bonds? Haha that was the most pointless show that I can ever remember ESPN showing.
