patw-261864 January 2020
This show should be called the Dallas Cowboys/New England Patriots show as they talk about those two teams over 90% of the time, it's disgusting!

Repetitive & Stale
blizzdizzl237 May 2021
Shannon is great! Always brings great energy, interesting perspectives.

Skip on the other hand is just awful. Anytime something happens in the sports world that will be on the show the following morning, I already know exactly what Skip will have to say, how he will say it, and metaphors he uses. He has about 20 different lines he uses and recycles the same tired points. Skip seems to think the viewers are interested in a debate, rather than a conversation about topics. It seems like Skip tries to make every topic an argument.

On another level, the show hasn't really developed or changed since its inception. The graphics, set design, and video elements all seem to be the exact same... and it just seems boring now.

DALLAS COWBOYS
brownronald-084961 February 2024
People across the country are sick and tired of skip Bayless wanting to talk about the Dallas Cowboys 365 days a year there has to be other sports and other topics that could be addressed somewhere along the lines The Cowboys have not won anything since 1995 and nobody's interested in hearing about them daily Is there something that could be done to prevent this from happening over and over year after year again Let's find other tablets to talk about maybe the NBA are major league baseball or women's college basketball or NCAA men's basketball and football something other than the Cowboys can we have one day without the Cowboys at least a week.

Repetitive Material
jameshbryant12 September 2019
According to the show there are only 4 professional teams. All they talk about are the Dallas Cowboys, La Lakers, GS Warriors and New England Patriots. This used to be my favorite sports talk show now I cringe thinking about it.

The Dallas Cowboys Show
justinmoore-2616729 September 2021
Every topic is about Skip's Cowboys. I'll change the dial to see what the topic is and it's always Dallas and then I immediately change the channel. This isn't even hyperbole. Every time I tune in, it's a Cowboys topic. In season, off season, Cowboys 24/7. It's a joke. This show was good in the beginning, but it has become a platform for Skip to get on his soapbox about his favorite team.

Best duo in the sports talk industry
coreygrip30 June 2021
While Skip Bayless may have really bad takes and can be biased towards specific teams and players, he is misunderstood and not appreciated for he has done for the sports talk show industry. While this show often focuses mostly on Lebron James, the Dallas Cowboys, Tom Brady, and the New England Patriots I understand why because these teams and athletes generate the highest ratings due to their popularity. Shannon Sharpe is the complete opposite of Bayless when it comes to all of the topics above which leads to lively debates. Despite the main focus being on a select few teams and athletes, the best part of this show comes after the Super Bowl as the show opens up to many more topics on the NBA, the NFL offseason, and societal topics that intertwine with sports.

Sharpe is one of the best hires a network has ever made. He has great quotes from his grandparents and stories from his Hall of Fame playing days in the NFL. His energy is contagious and is always prepared for every topic. He is quite simply fantastic at what he does. This show is not for everyone, but the personalities and lively debates make up for any shortcomings making this show a great watch and listen.

One of my favorite sports shows!
AlsExGal29 November 2019
No, it doesn't have the comprehensive staff and research of HBO's old show "Inside the NFL", but it's fun! In fact, comparing this show to Inside the NFL when it was in its prime on HBO is like comparing Last Week Tonight with John Oliver to Sixty Minutes - a well researched and informative piece of entertainment versus serious journalism.

Shannon Sharpe and Skip Bayless have great chemistry together. Shannon knows how to push all of Skip's buttons, and those buttons mainly involve the Dallas Cowboys and how Jerry Jones seems to want a yes man as a coach more than a winner - cough, Jason Garrett, cough. This is a favorite of mine around football season. The pair discuss other sports though. Now that basketball season is gearing up they are bringing in more basketball related guests.

Give it a try. I really don't understand the current low rating. It could be because Skip is a bit obsessed with the Dallas Cowboys, since he's been a fan for years. But since I'm from Dallas I actually rather enjoy his eloquent and expressive frustration with Jerry Jones.

FINISHED WITH THE SHOW
grnsky-4278710 December 2019
I have listened to Skip since he was with First Take and follow to Fox. But I am finished with the show. Skip, we don't all live in Dallas and New England. After this weekend of selecting the College Football Playoffs and the Game of the Year between New Orleans and San Francisco. All you could talk about for 2 hours was Tom Brady and Patriots. Even when you talked about the New Orleans game for 2 minutes you went back to talking about Tom Brady.

We just get sick of it! I think if you talked about other teams more you would have much better ratings! Especially when you just had the most important matchup of the year and you just want to argue over Tom Brady.

I am turning you off! Bye

Love the Show
brothertcoleman21 July 2018
Skip and Shannon is better than Skip ever was with Stephen A Smith on First Take.It seems to me that there is better chemistry on Undisputed. I find myself chuckling all the time ,it's funny without really trying to be. Skip is a Lebron hater but I like him more on FS1 than ESPN ,especially when it comes to having an honest and open mind when it comes to racial injustice.Dont get me wrong, I watch First Take sometimes because I really appreciate Max's perspectives but Stephen seems to get too defensive because he know Max is almost always dead on,I dont see good chemistry.

Sharpe is a darn fool
wahoodb12 October 2022
Haven't watched the show in some time. Sharpe says the most ridiculous comments it's like listening to a 13yr old in the playground. Today he said baker got 5 coaches fired screaming like an undisciplined fool. Not a baker fan but u can't tell the audience comments that they get nothing out of bc its nonsense. C's get degrees. Stick to football shsnnon. U have a 2 cent head.. hvghhcgg gfgcch hjhhjijhg hugu b high j u gjihggg hghhvhi high u vijjh juhjihhff hghg. Ghhggu. Gfhvhhcfg gggcghg hey in bgh hu u hg.

It is just the Cowboys and Lakers show
goralaw15 June 2020
If it doesn't involve the Cowboys (Skip) or the Lakers (Shannon), then it doesn't get talked about. There are other mainstream sports and teams, folks--MLB, NHL. Heck, Jenny Taft is college football reporter. How about letting her run a segment or two??? This program stinks now.

What to say??
mwcanadian10 May 2021
I feel for Shannon and the rest of the hosts. This show is ruined by Skip Bayless. All the topics revolve around Dallas, Tom Brady or how bad LeBron James is (to Skip). There is only so much someone can take before they find Skip's show repetitive and that's really the issue it's the same team's or topics discussed and there's only so much Skip annoying we can take.

Why is the name of the show Undisputed and not the Dallas Cowboys Sh*! Show?
bioquest-3070031 December 2021
Undisputed has to be the absolute worst sports show on TV! The sports world does not revolve around the Dallas Cowboys and the Los Angeles Lakers. It is sickening to watch Skip speak and make his point of view. The other Fox sport shows are great. Please do us all a favor and cancel this program.

Thanks, A loyal Fox viewer.

Finished with this show again
heardkobe5 July 2022
Skip has so much hatred for LeBron James it's crazy. Just cancel the show if you don't let Shannon talk. It's always comes back to skip talking bad about LeBron. I bet he'd be quiet if he came on the show but why would he when all he does is hate on him. I'm glad ESPN got rid of him. His knowledge is from the Micheal Jordan days. He's not adapt to this days games. Skip just leave the show and let Shannon take over.

An Entertaining Sport Show
mycheeks-5094910 January 2022
It's a type of show that a caters to fans that look for comedy mixed in the detailed and smart analysis on sports.. It's also for people looking for analysts who are not bandwagon fans but loyal to a fault or the haters to a fault.. So the both of them make fun of each other's beliefs and have wise banters back and forth for each other. They also defend their beliefs with logic, observation and stats which is something you're looking for when sports is the topic and your favorite team/player is the subject, they don't just hate for no reason at all.. It's a great debate show.

Cowboy and LeBron Show
arihiggins18 July 2022
They need to change the name of the show to the Cowboys and LeBron show. That's all they ever talk about! You think Skip worships the Cowboys and Jerry Jones as God and Shannon worships LeBron as the next coming of Christ. Can't stand the show, you can change away from it and come back 30 minutes later and its still Cowboys this and LeBron that. Cowboys have been irrelevant for 25 years, at least LeBron is still competitive.

Barbershop-style Sports Debate Show
davidbrown-726656 October 2016
The only reason I am giving this show a "10" due to the honest banter during the sports debates. We all know that Skip Bayless is rather bias towards certain teams and athletes (Cowboys, Tom Brady, Tebow, and hates LeBron) but I rather watch an honest show than a commercialized bias show like First Take. With this show, you get a sportswriter perspective and a player perspective with Shannon Sharpe, Hall of Fame tight end for the Broncos. Both debaters come with full of knowledge and their conversations are interesting. They talk about not only sports topics but social issues which broadens the sports world into a different realm. What makes Undisputed better than most debate shows there's no censorship and less political correctness. First Take is all about PC and not stepping on sponsors toes. Skip Bayless is more carefree and able to speak upon his thoughts and feelings. Shannon Sharpe revealed the dirty side of the NFL that we as fans may not know which is intriguing. If you are a sports junkie like myself, you will enjoy this show.

A daily gabfest of sports debate supported by research and opinion.
blanbrn31 August 2017
The new series on "FS1" called "Undisputed" is clearly one that's entertaining and enjoyable as it's nice to hear the debate and Monday morning quarterback style of talk from journalists and die hard Cowboys fan Skip Bayless and former NFL TE Shannon Sharpe. As their views and opinion takes often always differ as sometimes the debates get loud with drama high deep voices! As to me Skip many times is a loud mouth know it all and Shannon a big motor mouth. Yet the show is given some spice and eye candy as the beautiful and sexy Joy Taylor is a knockout as the show's host. Overall this is an okay sports debate talk show yet for my money I say tune over to ESPN's "First Take" and watch Max, Stephen, and Molly.

100k Can't be Wrong?
recondoc6822 October 2021
Undisputed has been my early morning coffee past time since it debuted. Shannon Sharpe is a language rapid fire wit, engaging smile, passionate devotion to what he believes to be the facts of a topic. Skip Bayless speaks with the experience of an authentic journalist. Their give and take entertains me. But for years they have deep rut worn the subjects titled LeBron, Brady, and the Dallas Cowboys. They have engaged in discussions about racial issues in our nation. But digressions from the big three topics of their show are rare. They have yet to reach an audience of 200,000 viewers. That is remarkable to me.

They hold their own in a universe of less than 150,000 viewers and I wonder how many of those are new to the program. Undisputed has suffered too the loss of in studio guests who brought vigor, charm, humor and anger to the program. Sharpe and Bayless alone cannot and will not expand their audience beyond those of us who visit their show morning after morning.

The 3 topic wonders
marcusave12 October 2023
This show is, hands down, the most boring sports talk show on TV. I truly don't understand why Fox continues to bend over and show Skip Bayless to control this failure of a show, when they get destroyed by First Take every morning. People can take just so much of the same topics over and over and over. Cowboys, LeBron and now Deion Sanders &Colorado(since Brady retired). Skip is like a senile old man who's incapable of talking about anything else. Here's the lineup of segments from yesterday: Cowboys, Cowboys, Cowboys, Colorado and Cowboys. Shannon Sharpe was the only reason to watch this show and now he's gone. Fox needs to sit Skip down and tell him either expand your topics or improve your ratings. First Take is a far better show.
