American Soul

Watching Soul Train on Saturdays when I was a young teen was so enjoyable. I'm white, but I loved Don Cornelius and the Soul Train Dancers. The show brought music hard to find in my small country town. Something I was thrilled to hear. This series goes behind the real show. Loved hearing songs from the time I was 13+. Yay!!! Worthwhile watch for anyone, regardless of color.

Not much to say except I enjoyed the first few episodes! Never thought Shawn from Power would be able to carry a show but I'm glad I was mistaken. There's also a lot of intertwining plots happening throughout the show (kinda like how The Wire worked) so they've definitely got a lot of plot to work with. Can't wait to see where this goes!

I remember watching Soultrain every Saturday. Soultrain always featured the best musical acts and dancers in its time. This series is a great look into exactly how Soultrain developed into one of the best Saturday afternoon dance shows ever. The powerful intro to this series is sadly a stark reminder as to the eventual demise of "Brother" Don Cornelius, the original shows brilliant inovator. The roles and appearance of Don and Gladys Knight are spot on with the current cast. I'm looking forward to viewing the rest of the series. I would love to see an updated version of Soultrain come back to TV once again...But then again I'm not sure it could come close to being as cool as the original.

I see Jared Warren as the body guard of Johnnie Cochran can't wait to see him bigger roles. Nice guy on set.

Loving the show ATM but did all this really happen?
