HEELS SERIES REVIEW
RING THE BELL!!! It is now time for our OneOfUs Kingdom main event of the evening, a fatal four-way review of the Starz professional wrestling drama, “Heels”! Jack and Ace Spade (Stephen Amell, Alexander Ludwig) may be brothers, but that means nothing in the squared circle as away from the bright lights and the realm of kayfabe, they are still at odds over their late father’s promotion, that Jack is currently running and reigns as its longstanding champion. But Ace’s possible call up to the big show up north and Jack’s struggles to obtain a more national audience create chaos for both their personal and professional lives. Mary McCormack, Alison Luff, Kelli Berglund, Allen Maldonado, and Chris Bauer co-star in this new series from “Loki” showrunner Michael Waldron. Brawling in the ring tonight is Bradley, Jordan, Rae, and Neil who are here to let you know if the first season is a Stone-Cold Stunner or just barely able to be a curtain jerker.
CREATED BY: Michael Waldron
STARRING: Stephen Amell, Jaxon McHan, Alexander Ludwig, Mason Gillette, Alison Luff, Mary McCormack, Kelli Berglund, Allen Maldonado, James Harrison, Roxton Garcia, Chris Bauer, David James Elliott, Duke Davis Roberts, Trey Tucker, Robby Ramos, Phil Brooks, Bonnie Somerville, Christian Adam, Alice Barrett Mitchell, Erica Pappas, Mike O’Malley
YOUR REVIEWERS
Bradly Martin (Screener Squad, Eye on the Prize, Breakfast Pub)
Bradly Martin was born in the united states and grew up on a healthy diet of sports, films, and books. A rather shy lad who kept to himself, Bradly soon discovered the best way to know a person was to know what people liked. Throughout the years Bradly became a fan of many things and a fanatic of none. From Doctor Dre, to Doctor Strange and the who’s who of Whos. From Playstation to the Dreamcast and Marvel to DC. From LeBron James to James Bond and Lord of the Rings to Lord Palmerston (or Pitt the Elder if you agree with Wade Boggs) and is a huge fan of dad jokes and randomly obscure Simpsons references. Armed with a vast knowledge of comics, films, and pop culture. Bradly traveled the world making friends and sharing takes. As a young man Bradly married the love of his life young and grew older every year with each new child brought into the brood. If trends continue, Scientists predict that .2% of Canada (where Bradly and family reside) will be populated by Bradly’s children by the year 2029. You can hear him leading and listening to his favorite critics on the Screener Squad and Eye on the prize and maybe even provide some comments of his own.
Jordan Cobb (Screener Squad)
Born with a comic book in one hand, a camera in the other, and in front of the television as WrestleMania played out, Jordan Worth Cobb was thus birthed into this crazy world. A Digital Filmmaking major from the University of Central Arkansas, Jordan has done it all in film from directing, writing, editing, and producing in addition to skills involved in film and TV criticism, journalism, and years of podcasting experience. On any given day, her ADHD riddled brain bounces focus from film to pro wrestling to TV to superheroes to noir to video games to espionage and yes, even to sports. She played little league you know. For more of this eccentric nerd, you can follow her on Twitter here and read her original writings on Deepest Corners of My Notebook.
Lyrae Anderson (Screener Squad)
You can call me Rae. You can also call me a film lover. I’ll watch it all — small screen; big screen, and everything in between. I have attended and worked for Fantastic Fest and South by Southwest for many years. I married a film geek as well. While we don’t agree on everything, we agree on our love of movies.
Neil Anderson (Screener Squad)
I first got hooked on movies when I saw Star Wars at a drive-in theater as a kid. Growing up in a small, rural town meant not having access to a lot of movies. In college, that all changed. I couldn’t get enough. I love it all — flicks, films, movies, and cinema. I still have that wide-eyed wonder of that kid watching movies from the back of a pick-up truck at the drive-in.
