joemailey Posted August 25, 2016 Share Posted August 25, 2016 So is anyone watching The Get Down? Couldn't see any other threads on it when I searched. I've enjoyed the first 5 eps I've watched so far. Music is decent in it. Quote The multi-talented Baz Luhrmann and a team of collaborators -- Oscar-winner Catherine Martin, legendary MC Nas, Grandmaster Flash, Pulitzer-winning playwright Stephen Adly Guirgis, and hip-hop historian Nelson George -- have created a music-driven drama that documents the emergence of a new art form. Set in the late 1970s, when New York was at the brink of bankruptcy and disco was dying out, the rise of hip-hop is told through the lives, art, music and dance of a group of young people in the South Bronx.

GameOverRob Posted August 26, 2016 Share Posted August 26, 2016 I watched the first episode and can honestly say I was massively underwhelmed by what is the most expensive TV show of all time. I can't even fathom how they managed to spend $13m an episode. I will likely continue to watch the remaining 5 episodes of Part 1 and see if the show improves.
