I'm picking the ones I like

Spinning Out (2020)
The series follow a young woman as she trains to get qualified for the Olympics after an injury. I really enjoyed this drama and was disappointed when it was not renewed. I think timing probably had to do with it; a lot of decent shows didn't get renewed then.

Dare Me (2019)
Follows the rivalry, jealousy, drama and mystery that occurs when a new young coach takes over a cheerleading squad. Again one I enjoyed that didn't get renewed. This fictional series is a good companion to the non-scripted Cheer.
 
Friday Night Lights (2006-2011)
Drama following the American football players in a small town high school team. I like the series and watched all 5 seasons when it was added to Netflix but I never really got the kind of praise it was getting. And almost all of the teen characters were played by actors that look sooo old...closer to 30-looking than 18.
