Okay...I really want to like this show. I really really want to like it. And I think I'm already hooked, but I don't want to watch it and be critical of every episode. First thing, I hope that every episode isn't so dark and hit you in the feels the way the first episode did. Suicide, debilitating disease with the dad. I DO hope that they can use this tool for her to be able to communicate and interact with your dad in a fun and light way.
A couple of other issues, when she meets the fiancee and says "A WEDDING?" in such a dramatic way and the fiancee doesn't react to that reaction in any way shape or form, nope. That would immediately set off alarm bells, not "come and join us for dinner".
The thing that gives me pause about this show (other than if it stays so dark) is the mechanism that they use for the interaction. I liked how she just heard the lady that was singing with her first interaction, but then the lady broke out in verbal song and dance. That's not how this gift (curse) would work. I know it's a TV show, but that cheapens it to me for some reason. And then the women with "What a man", same thing. Then when you have people all over the city singing the same song in theatrical group mode. WHY? It implies that everyone has this song in their head at the same time. No, not gonna happen. It makes for a fun scene I guess, but when you think about her gift and how it creates a connection, that event never takes place.
Yes, it's a TV show. No, it's not real. But I really wish they would change the method that the gift manifests itself. I know it's too late for that now. They're probably already done with recording season 1 or wrapping up.
I'm going to be hooked on the show. The lead is as cute as can be. She's the girl that everyone wants to take home to mom. Her facial expressions and body movement is fun to watch and she's good at her craft. I'm really looking forward to the music, both classic and new. I'm looking forward to hearing new songs and remembering old ones.
I think the music is what will keep me watching more than anything. Like I said, I hope I can just enjoy the show without being too critical because of the mechanism of the gift and because of the dark subject matter.
Actually, I want to see if I can be one of those random people walking down a street who sings a bit of a song!!! LOL.
