"Hellcats"

Igår var det svensk premiär för den nya TV-serien "Hellcats"

HELLCATS is a coming-of-age story about Marti Perkins (Aly Michalka, "The Roommate," "Bandslam"), a pre-law scholarship student at Lancer University in Memphis, Tennessee. Marti is a hip, edgy townie with working class roots, whose world flips upside down, literally and figuratively, when her scholarship is cancelled and her well-meaning but irresponsible mother, Wanda (Gail O'Grady, "NYPD Blue," "American Dreams") neglects to inform her. Broke and out of options, Marti realizes the only way she can stay in school is by repurposing her dormant gymnastic skills to win a place on the Hellcats – Lancer's legendary cheer squad – and the scholarship that comes with it. She had been a rising star in high school gymnastics until she abruptly quit senior year, so Marti knows she has the moves and athleticism needed for the squad. When she rocks the tryouts and "makes the mat," Marti is thrust into a world of camaraderie, backstabbing, and competition that takes place at the intersection of the Memphis music scene, backroom academia, college town politics and big money collegiate sports – in the Deep South, football is God.

Jag tyckte serien hade potential. Jag tror inte att det är den djupaste serien direkt utan mer gjord för att underhålla vilket jag inte tycker att det är något fel med. Jag hade lite svårt för huvudrollsinnehavaren men hon kanske växer efterhand hon blir lite mer varm i kläderna. Jag tror att jag kommer ge den några avsnitt till.
