Title: Daisy Jones and The Six
Grade: 1970’s rock and roll stardom comes to life in this part fake documentary/part drama about a top of the world rock band flaring out amidst all kinds of interpersonal drama. Seemingly loosely based on the Fleetwood Mac decades-long soap opera, it feels like a genuine dramatic look at the time and culture- but with interviews from the principles looking back at what happened from today. A bit formulaic and, at times, a tear jerker, but the music is really good (the cast can play and sings really well) and the archetypes are dead on. Keough and Claflin have undeniable chemistry and Olyphant is perfect as the seen-it-all hippie road manager (check the hair). One and done season.
