Yes, on the face of it I expected to like Mr. Robot. I don't think I made it through 5 episodes.

And I agree that a sports show in general would probably not be my thing as I hardly watch any sports (the exception is the Men's and Women's FIFA World Cups). However I was curious to learn more about English leagues and it being a comedy drew me in. Had it been a drama, not sure I would have given it a go.
