1st & Ten (1984–1991)
8/10
Pretty good

Okay I am sure this series is not for some, even most, people but I like it quite a bit. The first three to four of the six seasons are pretty much based on rough football humor. Somewhere in season four they started to mix in some drama which, in my opinion, lessened the overall episodes. There are several characters that are in the entire series, although not necessarily in all 80 episodes. This series shows both good and the bad of pro football. The booze, the pills, the girls, the machinations of owners, trainers, and upper management. They do change team owners and such with out a lot of reasons around season 3-4. Why Delta Burke left in the middle of season three is never explained. I thought she did a great job in her role. One of the nice things about this show is they use real pro players at times. Usually all-pros such as Marcus Allen, Lawrence Taylor, O.J. Simpson, etc. but most of the cast may have played college ball at best. It is still a good series. There is some nudity from time to time but nothing other than breasts are exposed. So if you don't care about incidental nudity in rather limited circumstances you may enjoy the series.
