Up Here

Great chemistry between the main characters. The "voices" are my favorite supporting characters. All of them are fantastic. The music fits the time period and the costumes as well. The set changes during the songs are very well orchestrated. The singing is really good, however I do feel as though sometimes the music is so loud it drowns out the voices. With the world so heavy, I enjoy how light and comical this show is. Don't get be mistaken it does have some drama but it's not so heavy it takes a week to recover. If you are a theatre lover with a sense of humor, I think you'll really enjoy this show.

I really enjoy it! Is it a little corny? Sure. But the music is good and both leads' voices are great! I think it's fun and entertaining TV. There is a good connection between the two leads, and the first two episodes really are emotional. Whitman especially shines in the role, with comedic and dramatic range! People should watch this show even if they might not be excited about the music. There isn't all that much per episode and the songs are catchy and fun! Any fan of Parenthood or Good Girls Will like her acting here, same combination of seriousness and comedy. The banking buddies are also hilarious and stupid, the show also has some funny 90s references that you won't want to miss.

So I'll admit - I've been a long-time fan of Mae Whitman & Carlos Valdes. Mae is always entertaining, wonderful, and witty. What struck me though, was Carlos - I haven't heard from him since his StarKid days, so I was thrilled (and intrigued!) to see him in something so mainstream. Together, these two make a wonderful blend, and it just feels right. It's corny and cheesy but in the best sort of ways.

I think this would be the perfect show for when you're feeling down and need a little pick-me-up. The plot line is easy to follow, it's formulated like any other romance. However, I found myself incredibly invested. I was on my toes the entire time watching it.

This was easily a sweet little bite, and I am incredibly excited for season 2. As soon as Lindsey had that conversation with Ted, in the final episode, I knew where it was going.

Again, what a pleasant surprise. I wasn't expecting to love this as much as I did. The songs are fun, the actors are all talented, and this was just a blast. (-:

It's a musical rom com so you know what you're getting into already. But the leads have an amazing chemistry together and the entire cast is really talented. I think if this was a movie, without the musical numbers, it would be kinda boring so this is an instance where the songs really make this show shine. The songs are actually good and also funny, not overly corny. I've seen musical rom coms but the songs are always so serious, this one makes you laugh all the way through which i didn't expect. I'm really excited to see what's next, i hope this wonderful show can go on for another season :)

Cards on the table. I would happily watch Mae Whitman reading tax returns so I may be a little biased in welcoming this addition to the schedule. Musical rom-coms are, of course, the Marmite of showbiz and this is obviously reflected in the reviews to date. But if you're a fan, you certainly won't be disappointed by the glorious mix of sense and sensibility. There are certainly plenty of points of recognition with the array of competing inner voices that surround those first glimmers of love. As with many musical numbers the words are rather more important than the tunes but, to my mind, that increases the value, especially when performed with such clarity by Whitman and Valdes.
