I relate to a lot of this show, except the fact that I'm a straight male who never became an accomplished musician. Other than that, I love how much of my childhood this reflects. The music, the way relationships played out in the 90s, the broken home... It's done perfectly. The whole atmosphere encapsulates the period so well but that's not all that's good about this.
The acting (especially from The two leads who technically aren't "actors") is phenomenal. The 90s was a unique decade and It always amazes me when younger people (who weren't even nearly alive in the 90s) are able to tap into the attitude of the era and understand what made my generation, what it was and how we lived on the run up to a technical revolution. It was almost dystopian in some ways and it's incredible how this show captures that in every way.
It says so much by saying so little and I appreciate it for what it is. Didn't think I would like it very much as I didn't think I'd relate to any of it but I gave it a chance and I'm glad I did.
Looking forward to more.
