Daisy Jones and the Six

I do wish- i want to say idiots but maybe thats a tad too strong, reviewers who felt the need to review it after watching only one episode and getting bored or i made it to episode 3 and stopped it was lame etc would refrain from leaving a review and a mark. Do they think their opinion is that important to the rest of the world that we should take heed of it despite not having seen more than a fraction of it? By the way ive just left a review for my local michelin star restaurant. I had a £35 fillet steak but i left it and walked out after eating 2 chips cos they werent salty enough. 3/10.

Just do us all a favour and dont say anything. I see people say sam claflin hasnt enough charisma to be cast as a lead singer in a band after watching the first episode when he is in a college garage band learning his trade? And by episode 6 he has plenty of charisma on stage. But they werent to know that. A bit too trigger happy on the reviews people. Stop ruining it for everyone who wants a realistic review. I turned it off after 15 seconds because one of the guitars strung with medium strings had too thick a G string.

Rant over. Ive just watched episode 7 which was the poorest one so far mainly because it focussed on daisy who for me is becoming a bit of a selfish spoilt brat. Now if that is the intention of the whole production then they are doing a good job. But it was the weakest episode for me. With the first episode a close second. It started to get going episodes 4 5 and 6 so anyone thinking of giving up prematurely watch it till at least then. (or dont and have a good moan on here). The scoring on makes me laugh. It isnt a 1 or a 2 or a 3 or a 4. Just like it isnt a 10 or a 9. Ive given it 8 whereas i should have waited for the last 3 episodes before marking it. I do realise some people have agendas and some are a bit odd. Its not bad tv and there is certainly some chemistry building up between billy and daisy. I havent read the book. My daughter has and she loves the series and would mark it 10 so far. In fact shes watched it twice, and im not joking.

I never read the book for Daisy Jones & The Six so I had no expectations going in. I only had the trailers to go by and even after watching them I went back and forth about watching this. The reviews were all mostly great so I thought I'd give it a chance and I'm so glad I did. I loved every minute of this series and thought each episode got better and better. The chemistry between the cast is what makes this show go. The love triangle can get a little soapy at times but it still remains entertaining throughout the series. Like a lot of the reviews have already pointed out this band has a very Stevie Nicks and Fleetwood Mac feel to them. Even though I wasn't born yet from everything I know I think the show portrayed the 70's well. I'm also a huge music fan of all genres and all era's and thought this represented music from the 70's well too. It's one of the greatest era's of music and this fits right in. If you're looking for a new show to binge then give this one a chance. You won't be disappointed.

If you're a fan you don't have to read anything to know Daisy Jones and The Six borrowed quite a bit from Fleetwood Mac. And I find myself unable to review this series without reference to them. I think that's fair because it would impossible to make nostalgic music dramas without being heavily influenced by those (Rock Pop) bands which dominated that era.

It's basically a fictional version of that documentary about the making of (F Mac album) 'Rumours', including emotionally charged compositions and lyrical battles between band members, who are all to some extent entangled in the intensity. It's the classic love/hate story that produces some very fine music. If you've been in bands - especially on the road - you'll know how all this could happen.

The reason that's more than ok is because The Six do actually have the great songs. Maybe not as enduringly massive as F-Mac's but still, you can believe that they would have had success.

Riley Keogh is fabulous and more than equivalent to represent Stevie Nicks' dulcet tones. Billy is not as edgy as Lindsay Buckingham but that's OK. They even have the classy English girl on keyboards, although Suki Waterhouse's character Karen isn't the singer/songwriter that Christine McVie was. A less memorable bassist (sorry, John). And let's hear it for the ubiquitous fun-loving drummer!

It was funny, dramatic, authentic and a good story - and there were sufficient loose ends, as there are in life. Another IMDb user reviewer wrote about how the events may not be quite as we see them, and that's really worth considering.

Highly recommended for Pop music fans and hopeless romantics.

There is far too often, among a select group of reviewers, a belief that if a single aspect of a film or series isn't to their taste, it immediately deserves a 1. "I really just don't like that supporting role actress. I'm grumpy this morning, giving it a 1."

This group does not comprehend film craft in the slightest. There are, especially these days with ever-increasing cinematography enhancements, a widening range of facets to every production. From sound track, editing, lighting, costumes, scripting, dialogue delivery, all the way through to CGI, the amount that goes into any production is multi-faceted. Multi, multi-faceted. Not all of them need to be reviewed, but they should be considered as part of the package. To critique a film or series based on one or two aspects is displaying evidentiary lack of understanding.

Daisy Jone and the Six may have an attribute or two that a reviewer doesn't particularly enjoy, but it most definitely doesn't merit a 1. The soundtrack alone should raise it to a mid-level rating.

As to how I view this series--it is entertaining and reminiscent of times when FM radio was new and edgy, when Firesign Theater came on at midnight. It has nuanced characters, with a storyline realistic enough for those of us who lived in Los Angeles in the sixties and seventies, and the music tracks elicit fond memories of the early clubs. And yes, I went to the Troubadour and The Golden Bear. And having gone to Berkeley, I saw more concerts at Filmore West and Cow Palace than most.

So . . . Keep in mind that there are hundreds of people who have dedicated time and skills to most productions. Keep it real, and don't let your singular disagreements cloud your judgement.

It's actually hard to write a review that does this justice. You'll fall in love with each and every character, yes. The story is compelling and whilst the end is revealed at the start, in no way will you see the end for what it really is. The script is spot on every step of the way and the acting faultless. The music is as much a part of the experience of course and I've certainly added a few tracks to my collection thanks to the series, so it can't be all that bad!!

Do yourself a favour and watch this, end to end and don't miss or skip anything because in the end, you'll need to really have felt every jarring moment, if you want to really feel the end as you bloody well should.
