I’m watching the Showtime non-fiction series The Franchise, which follows the Giants during this MLB season.  I hate to call it a documentary, though that’s how it is promoted, because it seems more like a sports network special.

That’s not a bad thing for people who like that sort of show.  Personally, I appreciate the small moments a lot more than the glossy, carefully orchestrated montage elements that seem a lot like the filler produced for game broadcasts
