Because it makes Ruby Soho and Brit look like assholes.
Brit seems obsessed with Thunder Rosa for some reason, and Ruby Soho seems to really hold a grudge against someone who's apologized to her.
The bucks storyline is weird when they won't say why they disappeared for 3 months and why they're scared of the Chicago audience and why that crowd hats them all of the sudden.

I want to, but Tony Khan already irritates me, and all the stuff I've read about him on this in the Dynamite threads tells me to stay away, stay far, far away.

There's a handful of us who watched it after Dynamite. It was fun to watch in that setting.

it's interesting that this show, being on The same station that airs dynamite, can't play the official aew theme songs for some people and it's the WWE network style covers imposed over their entrances

Some of the most lighthearted fun the live threads have had in ages was just riffing on the show tbh, peeps missed out. It's honestly enjoyable, good insights, fun looks at backstage and actually funny whether it wants to be or not lol

So anything AEW doesn't have free reign on using license-wise is going to get dubbed over. It's really just for "Carry On Wayward Son," though.

It’s a bit disappointing that the show seems like a work the same way total divas was

I enjoyed bits and pieces of it. The Cole stuff was genuinely heart warming, the Britt stuff was usually unbearable, Sammy makes you go back and forth on if he's likeable or not, and the Bucks stuff was just not interesting because they tell you they were miserable being off the show, but don't tell you why (yes, WE know).
Despite all my complaints, I'm cool with it continuing. I enjoy backstage stuff and the live thread made it fun sometimes
Oh I think my favorite was written TK was shown watching a women's match he looked like he was watching paint dry then later in the episode the way they edited the clip, if looked like he saw a basic wrestling move from Jericho and lost his shit "OH WOW THAT'S AWESOME"

I have it on DVR, I'll probably get to it someday, especially if the writers strike goes on too long, but I think it's reality TV standard to make people look as bad as possible one way or another.

I watched the first episode, I don't really like watching them out of character talking about current/recent events within AEW, it kills some of the enjoyment for the actual show for me.

I watched the first two episodes hoping it'd be AEW's equivalent to WWE's Day Of docs or 365s but found out rapidly it was not going to be that, at all. Haven't tuned in since.

Also the whole "will we still know how to wrestle" angle from the Young Bucks was laughable.
I couldn't care less about Sammy, and as such, wanted to fastforward through his whole deal.
Felt bad for Tay saying she feels underused, saying she wants to work more, and then watching week after week as TK doesn't book her, even though he makes it a central aspect (at least for those episodes I watched) of this reality TV show.

I randomly caught the first episode. I didn't even know it was airing over here. It was exactly as I expected and as kayfabe as Dynamite.

It’s a weird blend of keeping kayfabe and breaking it. Strange, really.
