📺 Onside: Major League Soccer ⚽️
Monday, March 10, 2025
Recently finished Onside: Major League Soccer, the documentary series on TV+ about the past MLS season.
It was a nice and refreshing view compared to team-specific documentaries I’ve seen in the football (⚽️) world, and I really enjoyed the variety of discovering different teams, personalities, and players!
For someone like me, based in Europe, it was super useful to learn more about this league and its personalities. I wish more teams were covered, but I’m assuming that this would be the case if the show was to get renewed for another few seasons… MLS has definitely had the perception of being the “soon-to-be in the Top 5 of football leagues in the world” for 15 years now and we’re still waiting to see it happen, but at least the marketing has been good and the level of play has increased significantly. Though there’s still a lot of work to be done at youth level for the sport to become as mainstream and universal as it is in the rest of the world.
Next up on my watchlist:
- Drive to Survive (Season 7), before the start of the new Formula 1 season, this weekend.
- The Handmaid’s Tale (Season 5) for research…
