OK but is not how I remember the period
18 August 2023
It feels like a very modern view of what people think it might have been like back in the '70s. I can't pin it down but I think the costumes feel like they are too perfect.

In fact the whole thing feels to clean. Life in that period was pretty grimy especially for struggling rock stars.

Having said that the acting is good, and the characters are suitably annoying, and keep the plot ticking along nicely.

Daisy's allure and charisma are palpable, but at times her actions and decisions appear inconsistent, leaving viewers with a sense of unpredictability that doesn't always feel intentional. Similarly, the dynamic between the band members, though often compelling, can veer into clichéd territory, making certain conflicts and resolutions less impactful.

Additionally, the show's exploration of themes such as fame, creative struggles, and interpersonal relationships is both resonant and relatable. Yet, there are instances where the narrative becomes a bit too enamoured with its own allure, leading to a lack of genuine exploration of these themes. As a result, certain storylines feel underdeveloped, leaving viewers craving a more profound dive into the characters' motivations and emotions.

I managed the first few episodes and may re-visit it when I've finished watching Peripheral.
