You've never seen Jerry Maguire or When Harry Met Sally? Damn, we need to remedy that immediately. Especially When Harry Met Sally, arguably the single best rom-com ever made.

It's fitting the restaurant owner said Coaches are like Fathers, because that's all this show is about. Fathers.

Not sure if you've been told this before, but the actors that play Higgins and his wife are married in real life! Jeremy Swift and Mary Roscoe, they're so cute!

There is a Notting Hill reference too. Loved the Princess Bride call back ... that one flies under the radar.

Maple: you and your significant other should curl up and watch some of those famous rom-coms--they are all really good, you are missing out on Jerry Maguire, Notting Hill, Bridget Jones Diary, and When Harry Met Sally. :)

I'd be down for a Showgirls watch along with Maple. It's definitely a shit movie, but it's pretty fun to laugh AT it.

I wouldn't say you need to know anything about football to appreciate the show, but some of the characters are essentially caricatures of real life players, and others are an amalgamation of a bunch of different people. For instance Roy Kent is obviously inspired by Roy Keane. Dani Rojas is Javier Hernandez. Someone who will be introduced later is blatantly Zlatan Ibrahimović. Jamie Tart is an amalgamation of a bunch of people from David Beckham to Jack Grealish. The there's Sam, who everything about him just screams N'Golo Kante. Even Nate, the evoking of Jose Mourinho only becomes more obvious as the series goes on. However would having an understanding of who these people are make the show better? Probably not.

Honestly, I feel like Showgirls is misunderstood. It was Paul Verhoeven, he's famous for satirical takes on genre movies, and I feel like people missed the point of what he was doing so often and so early in his career, he felt the need to keep going further and further with it. Then at a point people who didn't get the satire didn't care and just wrote it off as a bad movie. Starship Troopers is a perfect example of that, it's a beloved cult classic now, but when it was released audiences and critics a like panned it. All Paul Verhoeven movies in that era were like that. Robocop, Total Recall, Basic Instinct, Starship Troopers, Showgirls... hell, even Hollow man. They all have a satirical element to them, and it just so happens that the films people love the most are the ones where the satire is harder to discern, and just comes across as style.

Plus, you get to see Jesse Spano's boobs. And yeah, I'm a fan of Verhoeven. Been so long since I've seen Showgirls, I don't remember a lot about it. I remember being entertained by it.
