Clunky dialogue delivered poorly. The quality of everything was below that of a day time soap. The sole selling point is that it's gay themed. Given that every show and advert has some gay representation, renders this show entirely pointless.
It's a very tired theme that reeks of the late 1900s. Please do not waste your time on this and I hope the best for the 'actors' in their career change as being on screen doesn't suit them. If you want a gay Oz comedy, Please Like Me is better written and acted with much wider appeal. If you just want to watch attractive people being dumb, watch Teen Wolf.

Firstly, it's not a musical, there's just some singing. The only time there's really a dance routine is during a fire.
The sequel follows the same themes as the first film, a descent into madness by a man who's been let down by family and society, but going further, to his full descent when he's let down by the person he loves, after finally finding connection.
I simply do not understand what people don't get about the film. If you don't like the sequel, you never really got the first.
Gaga and Phoenix are excellent, together and singley. Gaga's costume design on transformation to Harley Quinn is perfect, Joker remains appropriately ramshackle and grimm.
The grimy, miserable setting continues, I think we could have had more contrast, as we did with Wayne Manor in the first.
The triggering of Fleck's psychotic break was difficult to watch.

At an hour per episode, the show takes several hours to find its footing, but it's definitely worth it.
True's origin story alone is worth your time.
You will need to pay attention, this show won't spoon feed you and there's a lot going on with a fair amount of jumping around the myriad plot threads. It presents itself as being about women, but as the plot progresses, it becomes clear that this is just Victorian framing, as one of the main characters says in the first episode, after repeatedly focussing on women, "no men of good standing". This is about the disenfranchised, where a black man, even a doctor is just as ignored and overlooked as the mentally ill patients he treats.
