Disney+’s Big Shot episode 4 is titled Great in the Living Room and is extremely touching and teaches more great lessons.
Big Shot is a show that completely took me by surprise. It is so much more than just another basketball show — there is a whole lot of heart at the core. These girls are so easy to connect to, and I love that they go through real life problems. This allows the teens and tweens that are watching to feel seen, and perhaps even learn something.
In episode 4 of Big Shot there is a lot of these lessons to learn. Not only does Olive get a rude awakening when she tries to sign a sponsorship deal without adult help, she realizes that she needs to embrace who she really is when the truth is revealed.
At the same time, Coach Koryn is dealing with the viral release of Harpers expose painting him a light that he does not want for himself. He seeks redemption by trying to recruit a new player, and in turn shakes the whole teams confidence.
Big Shot episode 4 dives deeper into a few of the characters, which is truly appreciated and makes the show feel more wholesome and realistic. Getting to know the team, and their personal struggles, is sure to be helpful for the young girls, and boys, that tune into this series.
This show is one that families can watch and enjoy together, while learning together. It reminds me of when I used to watch Seventh Heaven with my mom and sister, each episode would mean something, and we would look forward to watching together each week. That is what I see Big Shot as – a show that teaches lessons because it embraces real life problem, instead of shying away from them. I can’t wait to see where it goes from here.
About Big Shot
After getting ousted from the NCAA, a men’s basketball coach is given a chance for redemption with a coaching position at an elite private high school. He soon learns that the teenage players require empathy and vulnerability — foreign concepts for the stoic Coach Korn (John Stamos). By learning how to connect with his players, Marvyn starts to grow into the person he’s always hoped to be. The girls learn to take themselves more seriously, finding their footing both on and off the court.
