About

You’ll likely enjoy this if you want an emotional, small-town drama with singing, big feelings, and characters tackling real-life issues, in a more grounded vein than Glee; Not for you if you dislike heavy teen storylines or occasional melodrama.

Pros: heartfelt tribute to arts; engaging ensemble stories; strong musical moments | Cons: uneven pacing at times; can feel preachy; some plotlines messy
