    I doubt it will last beyond this season. Just doesnt seem like good writing. Seems like the cast is pretty solid.

    yea I can't deny... episode 3 was pretty bad. and that was the other one that Crowe himself wrote and directed! though the crazy stalker chick did look pretty damn hot in that outfit she had on, especially once she was giving the critic a massage.


    and it's confirmed that Eddie Vedder will make a cameo in the finale episode

    that is literally all that is keeping me invested. A potential Pearl Jam cameo. That and the music they include is very good. The Avett Brothers this week while they were driving. This is the true definition of Sunday show that is watched on Monday.

    oh man this a bummer. We're 6 episodes in now and I am just NOT feeling this show, barely at all. and hell I was practically this site's biggest cheerleader for it when it started. I'm not even sure what it is about it, I just keep going.. meh by the time each one's done.

    and okay, obviously the gimmick is the opening act for the fictional band of each episode is a real life group. I'd never heard of this band Lucius, but holy shit... they literally look like why the word "hipster" was invented in the first place. I mean one of the girls I actually find kinda cute, but my eyes were rolling so hard the moment they came on screen I practically gave myself a headache.


    although, having said all that, I fucking love Rafe Spall in general. I'm predicting it now, he will have won at least one oscar within the next 10 years.

    Watched the first 3 episodes. I will not be watching anymore. It's terrible. There's no point, the acting is bad, the script is bad, nothing really happens. Had low expectations for it, but they did not even get reached.

    The Bryce Newman episode (mainly because of Lindsey Buckingham) and the Skynyrd episode are my favorites of this season. The show is corny, and the writing is a bit weak, but it's a good filler till Shameless comes back.

    Yeah I did enjoy the Skynyrd episode as well as those performances for the finale. Man of the Hour was a nice treat from EV.

    The last episode was cool with the performances for sure. It was an ok show. Nothing great but enjoyable enough for me to watch the whole thing. It was trying to capture a modern roadies view of Almost Famous but nowhere near the magic of that movie. Rafe Spall was great I thought. Did a good job of making you dislike him at first and then started to grow on me as the season went on. I doubt this gets a second season.
