I was surprised that no one has commented and it's been on for 2 months, already. I think it's pretty good, which is saying something as I don't really like reality shows or team sports. The stupid "life lessons" at the end of each episode annoy me, though.

"Movies, movies, politics and movies."
No, you're not alone! :)
Same here, can't stand reality shows, but this one has hardly any forced drama, and it's a little closer to a documentary anyway (which makes me wish they'd show a little more of the basics: how did these guys get into it, what are the training routines, etc...)
I especially like how all these guys are just kinda "normal".
It would've been cool to have a crossover at some point: the highschool kid see what it's like to do it in college, and Tux to go see how Bango rolls.
I don't mind the narrative thread (or "life lessons" as you call them), as they tie it all together somehow. Granted, it can get a little heavy handed, but it's a nice coda to each episode.
I enjoyed the show thoroughly.
What I learned from it is that these guys should get paid more.
Yeah ok, HS and college can't get paid, but Mascots in general deserve so much more respect than they get.
No! You are not the only!
Because it's lame.
shareNo. Apparently there are four of you.
shareStarted watching it the day after Easter on hulu and just finished the last episode tonight. I loved it and will watch it again this summer!
I'm a school teacher; more than a quarter century (I like to say it that way because it sounds like the FOREVER that it feels like) and have taught adults, high school, elementary and now middle school. I adored the positive vibes of this show and Rooty and Tux in particular.
I can't recommend is highly enough! Oh, and I actually liked the endings; they tied the episode and the mascots together.

No signature lines were harmed in the making of this signature line.
This was really awesome and documentary like and shows how you can make something really interesting in the genre. Hopefully this is screened for emmy voters.
shareI started watching just for a laugh and boredom in my hotel and by the end shed a tear for the guys. Very powerful show. I'd hope that the next season they do a follow-up especially Tux I felt for him the most.
shareI am watching too. I live near Wilkes Barre and I love Tux!
