It’s been amazing watching Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney buy Wrexham A.F.C. – a seriously historic football club – back in 2020 and really become part of the town and its fans. The show does a great job of balancing the personal stories of the people in Wrexham with following the team’s progress. And the last three seasons have been incredible – they’ve just kept getting promoted, racking up league title after league title! It’s a really feel-good story.
