i like that the 20 years later segments are squarely in the mid-90's, but the only people who look 20 years older are the two other dudes in the band (drummer and Graham). And they just stuck the english model keyboardist in a leather jacket and leather tie, like it's 1984.

Matt Sweeney and Cass McCombs helped write songs for this

Cass just on one

also hatewatching, very slowly, probably as their songs are terrible and i often stop watching for a bit or skip over those bits, wondering what on earth teddy price hears in them. i'll concede the Ooh La La singalong was good though.

i'll rephrase the songs being terrible. they are distinctly not to my taste.

I’m three episodes in and tbh it’s better than I was expecting. But given how much most music biopics (fiction or not) give me hives, my bar was exceptionally low. So far I think the songs are just fine but none of them seem to be from the time they are living in. I’m getting real 90s vibes from a lot of the music.

yeah they feel like people in the 90s trying to write a Fleetwood Mac song for Sheryl Crow, the closest they get is when they try to ape a FM style rhythm section, that if you're to gonna let me down let me down easy one

i rarely got a sense of what the songs actually sounded like, TBH. the mix in the show foregrounds the vocals so much that it's hard to hear the actual music. i can't be arsed to go listen to the soundtrack. I do think Elvis has a pretty good voice.

Irish Prince plot line was so dumb, still laughing at that guy ("you'll regret this!!"). Only bit I really enjoyed was the NYC disco thing as that was the only part where I didn't actually hate any of the people involved (record label excepted)

that felt like a bit of another, probably more interesting, show was flown in

ugh just got to Irish Prince wtf
he looks like a facetuned Joe Jonas

this show, honestly. The amount of ludicrous character choices that resolve in a single episode is hilarious

two weeks pass...

We just finished this last night. Yes, dumb and cheesy and really just a soap opera, but we were entertained enough to watch all the way. The last episode had so much DRAMA packed in, sort of hilarious.

this was pitched and marketed and promised pretty much exactly what it delivered which is much to its credit, the vibe absolutely carried it the cast are clearly having a ball at all the right times and keough is just a superstar
