Must be, maybe. In real life Griselda was no beauty, by my eye

Lol. I was looking at these exact pictures earlier. Vergara must have been upset at being cast as a not so attractive women, so they have to reaffirm how attractive she is every 5 minutes. Every other character wants to or is sleeping with her and they continuously talk about her "tits and ass". They wrote in multiple scenes, that are in no way essential to the plot, of competing drug dealers telling her how much they want to sleep with her, and there's no way that happened to the real life Griselda. It's really odd.

If anything, Griselda probably had a requirement in her contract to sell the story that she be played by someone like Sofia Vergara lol.

I guess a somewhat plausible reason would be that the real-life Griselda, being a psychopath and ready to kill at the drop of that, demanded it from people around her and they complied to, you know, not be killed.

Has anyone run into this. I had no idea
"'Unlock all movies and TV shows

I have no idea how much, or why ad supported content is limited.

Season 2 started!

Maybe a US version would suck but a Canadian version would be cool and polite! Think of all the great people they could get! Think Jarome could still do it?

btw, there is also a Chinese version



The games are similar but designed to be more balanced I think. They tend to focus on all-rounder ability rather than just strengths. The teamwork games are more strategy-based. The editing is also more even, not so star-studded.

Yeah I think it's repetitive unless you know who the people are.

If there was a Canadian version we'd know the people and it'd be interesting, like Brian McGratten and Jesse Lumsden wresting over a ball.

I still enjoyed Physical 100, but same criticism I had even in season 1. They should have a men's version and a women's version. I feel bad for the women who participate, because there really is no chance for them to win. So even if they are super fit end elite in their field, they still won't have any chance.

Maybe they're just ahead of the curve.
If we're moving towards non gendered sports anyway, cis gendered women better get used to losing.

We just finished Physical 100 S1 and I need to know.... DID THEY FIX THE EDITING? I'm not sure I've ever seen a show that I simultaneously enjoyed and hated at the same time. It felt like every episode built to a climax, rolled credits, and then stumbled into the resolution in the first 10 minutes of the next episode.

Nope, that's how most Asian shows are.
