A League of Their Own

Screenshot from A League of Their Own

What: Series, 8 episodes, 60 mins.
Where: Prime Video
When: Now
Genre: Drama
Why should watch: A successful remake of a beloved 30-year-old movie that manages to update a film set in the ’40s. While successfully embracing the underdog energy of the original, this remake addresses issues of race and has lots more lesbians. A Black player is introduced and denied a spot on the Peaches while Latinx players battle racism. There’s plenty of interplayer romance and complexity in a series that gently refurbishes the original League.
