'Cheese Rolling' takes us to Brockworth, Gloucestershire in England for a look at the local tradition of chasing a taped-up wheel of cheese down an extremely steep hill. In my case, it just happened to be the odd-numbered episodes that captured my interest.

The problem is that, because it's an anthology, each viewer is going to vibe harder with some episodes than others. One imagines that the show was pitched with an emphasis on its wholesomeness and positivity I can see it entertaining fans of shows like AppleTV+'s breakout hit Ted Lasso or Making It, NBC's crafting competition. Wilson's serene delivery lends the proceedings gravitas, even when the contest in question is inherently ridiculous (frog jumping) or disgusting (eating hot chili peppers) the Wes Anderson-manqué titles and art direction contribute to a sense of timelessness.

The new docuseries - which comes to Netflix from a gigantic team of executive producers that includes Martin Desmond Roe and Chris Uettwiller ( Shut Up And Dribble) Nick Frew ( Religion Of Sports) and Rainn Wilson (who also narrates) - is an anthology each episode takes a half-hour deep dive into an obscure or idiosyncratic competition. In the interest of full disclosure, I should preface this review with a confession: I take competition very seriously - even when the competition is very silly - which probably makes me the perfect audience for We Are The Champions.
