    Ballers on HBO starring Dwayne Johnson. The fifth and final season begins tomorrow. Any other fans of this series?

    There's probably a reason for that. You know?

    Because they’ve never given it a chance?

    Or because it isn't very good. One of two reasons, I'd wager.

    One and that was more than enough. It seemed like Dwayne Johnson's version of "Entourage" (which I never liked).

    It really picks up in Season 2&3. I tried 3 times to get into Entourage at the insistence of friends who thought I’d love it. Could never make it through a few episodes. I see Ballers as more like Californiacation.

    Ballers has strong pedigree. With Peter Berg (Friday Night Lights) and Mark Wahlberg (Entourage) in the mix! Berg has a long history of great sports-related projects and Wahlberg has a feel for the 'behind-the-scenes' type shows. The series has had its highs and lows, I personally prefer the 1st few seasons. Should be noted that although it isn't the primary focus of the show, the ugly reality of the NFL is often touched on. I find this to be commendable.

    I’ll give it another go, I guess. I really hated “Entourage”. But I respect your suggestions and opinions enough to give this another whirl.

    I gave up on this show halfway through the first season. I was a fan of Entourage, but just could not get into this series. I might give it another try.

    I’m glad there’s at least a few Ballers fans in the house. I was going to start a thread on Power, another show I love, but won’t since this one bombed.

    It has its moments but its not something I give my undivided attention to. More like something I put on, while I'm doing something else with my time, like right now as I'm typing this. The incessant rap crap I find extremely annoying.
