George & Tammy

No one can fault Jessica Chastain or Michael Shannon"s performances. They even do an amazing job of singing. Of course no one can compare with George Jones and Tammy Wynette in the eyes of their fans. They are still impressive.

I would have given this a full ten, but it's one flaw is dragging out the story. This could have been three episodes instead of six. Dragging it out seemed painful.

I'd rather see a miniseries about their rise to the top. Their relationship was so troubled and trying, we already got the point and dragging all of us through it was unnecessary.

Again, top notch performances from the leads.

I've been captivated from start to end! The casting is amazing. Both actors have understood the assignment. Jessica is stunning and her voice OMG it's perfect.

The flipping table scene is insanely good. They better not ruin the rest of the show and this iconic love story that gave us some iconic songs although we all know it's not gonna end well, i'm still here for it😂

Jessica Chastain singing Stand by your man is candy for the ears but i really do believe i've just unlocked a new obsession for Michael Shannon! Once again an actor who does no social media so i'll have to dig for crumbles on the internet 😂

This review is written to those who were never brought up listening to "country" music. I'm one who wasn't. I watched this series because I like the main actors. Man, I blown away by the lyrics of these songs and the way they were sung! I didn't care if George and Tammy's life was accurately portrayed. I cared more about how the actors and the series itself made the words to these songs so vivid to me. I congratulate everyone who made this emotional story possible... which included their youngest daughter. It made me appreciate this music so much more. I'm impressed how how these simple songs can be packed with so much emotion. I'm convinced that anyone who isn't familiar with this genre will develop a special liking for it. I sure as hell did.

It seems to be a trend right now to have shows about true life stories or loosely based stories. From start to finish it really kept my attention their love and struggles while hearing music I enjoy. I see people posting the singing was terrible, but I do not think so. Shannon especially sounded good. I think people get in their head the real singers and will not have it in their heads someone else singing some of the songs. Sometimes we do not see past the true performances on stage and tv. The characters we derive in our heads may be completely different than their true personalities so you got to go into it open minded. Unlike some of the other stories I have watched recently that the captivating parts were in the first 2-3 episodes this was different it kept my attention start to finish. I am sure that everything is not completely accurate, but I found it well put together and interesting.

An interesting series with excellent acting performances.

The show deals with the lives of two country stars, George Jones and Tammy Wynette, their successes and failures. The series is actually a good old-fashioned drama, where the characters are the most important, and the series depends on how good the acting will be. And the acting here is very good.

Jessica Chastain is convincing in the role of Tammy Wynette and has managed to portray a fragile person who is both inspiring and tragic at the same time. The relationship between George and her is particularly well portrayed, and Michael Shannon is interesting in the role of George Jones.

George Jones is portrayed here as a conflicted person, complex, and in the end he is shown to be someone who is ready to face his mistakes, albeit a little late. Walton Goggins is great as Earl "Peanutt" Montgomery, the man who ends up helping George Jones.

Walton Goggins plays a minor but crucial role in this story. Somehow, I was left with the impression that it would have been even better if this story had been made into a movie, and not into a TV series, because then the story would be more dynamic and would leave an even greater impression on the viewer. This way, sometimes it seemed that some parts were stretched and acted as filler.

The last episode is definitely the best. But, even with these small flaws, the series is definitely worth watching, because of the interesting story and even more interesting characters.

It shows us a glimpse of a different time, which was certainly interesting.

Definitely worth watching.
