Vashirdfel Simply A Masterpiece
Twilightfa Watch something else. There are very few redeeming qualities to this film.
BelSports This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.
Tymon Sutton The acting is good, and the firecracker script has some excellent ideas.
sassheckscher I loved this show. And thanks to sharp eyed friends have managed now to record all of it for posterity!I like my television to be the kick-off-your-shoes-chill-out-on-the-sofa kind. And Players fits the bill perfectly. Great fun, great deceptive plots, three wholly believable leads with great chemistry, a sense of humour. It couldn't have been more tailormade for my enjoyment if it tried.
Mac-59 I kind of like this show. I must admit that I rolled my eyes once or twice when I saw that Ice T was in the lead, knowing that rappers usually aren't the best actors in the business. But I soon noticed that this guy has a appealing quality: he's willing to abandon (partially) his tough-guy gangsta rapper routine and make a jerk of himself.Something Ice Cube ought to do. Every time I see him, even as a comic relief (Anaconda), he always seems to frown and tough himself up like he's afraid he'll lose his rep in the hood or something. At least Ice T take a few risks, drops the bull, and looking appropriately goofy every know and then and I think that makes him more appealing to a wider range of people. This along with the series clever plots and direction, I can think of worse ways to spend my evening.
logik I have to agree with my fellow player: Why did this show get cancelled? Players was the best thing that ever happened to "The Peacock" (NBC). Here we had the perfect blend of comedy and drama a la con...sure the premise has been used before, but this show had undeniable character.My hats off to the cast and crew of the show. We miss you dearly :)
Gislef Players was a 90's update of the Sting-like con artist/scam series, which dates back to shows like Mission Impossible andSwitch. The three characters were an interesting mix, and the cons were both complex enough to be believable but simple enough that you didn't sit there later and go, "Huh?" NBC basically under-promoted it and subjected it to frequent pre-emptions inits Friday time-slot. Boo.
