This show basically didn’t have a cynical bone in it’s whole body the entire way through and it was honestly better for it. At every turn I was expecting Beth to get abused or poo poo on by the chess players for her gender. Instead her adoptive father is a poo poo for entirely different reasons and the vast majority of players she met were ultimately extremely helpful if socially awkward as all hell.

It was a nice surprise to see that the people in charge were seemingly decent people trying their best.

You'd think he'd be more likely to recognize how good her chances were to win, and would have possibly more money. But I guess its better for the story this way. I got my names mixed up hard here and thought she asked the dad for money for the tournament initially. Mr Shaibel really was the best dad she ever had.
