Wife watched it tonight. I was reading my digital book (king killer chronicle, highly t commend) and was glancing up periodically.....,******* that was awful. How many lame ass cliches and tropes could they fit into that hour.

solid curveball at the end of the episode.

So far this is saved from being the worst new show by Lethal Weapon (looking for McGuyver to make another save here), but it has a long way to go to catch up to the next worst show in The Good Place.

As others have said, I'll give good place a pass for the first half dozen episodes because of Michael Schur

Ha...everyone saw that coming. I'm done with this train wreck. Time to add it to the pile of shows that never had a chance(macguyver, lethal weapon, etc.).

My wife watches it. I had serious issues in episode 1 when they described the throwing motion of a circle change, and called it a screwball.

Yeah, I learned that pitch in little league and it was effective for one batter.

I have kept with it cause it's a break from cop/law shows.

Then you weren't doing it right. A good circle change can be a money pitch.

Although it's not a screwball it can have similar movement. A slider cutting away and a circle change trailing inwards and down gives good offspeed options for batters from both sides of the plate.

everyone in our little league learned it at the same time (baseball camp at the HS), and it was the only "breaking" pitch most of us had. Pretty easy to sit on it when most pitchers throw fastball, fastball, change.

I realize thy have similar movements (I was a catcher all my life) but the grip and hand position are very different.

It's not a huge deal...just something that really irked my with my baseball background.
