Rovers Audience Reviews

Lovesusti The Worst Film Ever
GamerTab That was an excellent one.
Pluskylang Great Film overall
Philippa All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
grahamsp I was really looking forward to this new Craig Cash comedy but what a let down. Couldn't raise a laugh in 6 dreadful episodes. Stale unfunny slow moving just a few of the attributes that this rubbish has provided its viewers. Craig Cash's character is just embarrassing to watch. Over the top acting, unfunny lines just a ridiculous character with an annoying voice is enough to put you off. I see one or two reviews mention belly laughs! Beggars belief this is utter garbage unless you like a gentle Cannon and Ball like comedy. The gay couple are totally unbelievable and it doesn't work along with other weak characters. The eating the fish finger scene was just awful with Cash again trying to get laughs with horrific over acting. The only thing this series did for me was to despise Cash's character has to be one of the worst on television and that voice! Do not waste your time watching this crap.
asainty-53641 Rovers is a fantastic TV show which is about a non league team called Redbridge rovers who aren't a very good side at all. It has many funny moments and many funny characters who are all great fun . If u liked royal family or are into anykind of fun jolly comedy then this program could be for u. I wish there were more episodes and I'm waiting eagerly for more.This is a great new TV show with loads of funny moments. I just could not stop watching.All the characters are great especially Pete (craig crash). Sue Johnston as Dory was also an excellent performance. I would highly recommend it. Can't wait for the next season!!!!!
tlloydesq Craig Cash's odyssey through comedies in limited situations continues with Rovers – set in the club house of Redbridge Rovers, a semi professional English football team in levels 7 & 8 of the footballing pyramid.Is it a problem that Rovers' number 1 support Cash is also executive producer and director of the show? Having multiple roles means difficulties reigning in Craig's more excitable moments. But nothing is perfect.Those familiar with "Early Doors" will recognise the setup: a group of locals gather in the club house before and after games. They all have their own seats where they settle for the day. Conversation can be limited to a single group or can travel around the bar. In fact step forward director Cash for a smooth transition between different groups. "Royle Family" favourite Sue Johnson turns in a good performance as bar manager Doreen. Otherwise the acting is solid. The script is okay and grows as the first series progresses. You have to watch the whole first series to really get an appreciation of the show. Individual episodes lead you to miss the bigger picture. The humour is ribald but doesn't step over any lines. And there are a few teary moments.So a decent first series and hopefully more to come.
Ian Gregg Loved this.Excellent group of actors all very low key. Well written.I'd like to see more of their writing.Really hope this gets a second series.It's inoffensive and that is not a bad thing.Characters are beautifully portrayed.Having been a supporter of a non league team, it's not totally removed from reality.It had laugh out loud moments as well as genuine cringe-worthy bits.Look, it's got Sue Johnson in it, so it's going to be very watchable! Well worth watching. Go on. Give it a go.
