Daisy Jones and The Six
In 1977, Daisy Jones and The Six were on top of the world; the band had risen from obscurity to fame, and then, after a sold-out show at Soldier Field, they called it quits; now, decades later, the band members agree to reveal the truth.

I wasn’t going to watch this initially, but seeing people rate it highly got me curious. I had read The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo by Taylor Jenkins Reid, and I was expecting something like that or other musical biopics. This show is not that. While it does explore the standard self-destruction you see from these stories, it’s also a lot about healing. I found the Billy Dunne’s struggle compelling, and I was glad to see the way some other characters were given due focus. The cinematography is also on point, with the concert scenes feeling visceral.
