What I liked
I thought the message of the story was really moving. The commentary on modern art industry culture is a harsh lens into the darkest flaws of American society at large. The show tackles rampant corruption, grind culture, sexism, addiction, power dynamics in the workplace, and more – yet it reminds us that in the end, we are all just human. I thought it was particularly well done that these messages were delivered through such a broad assortment of plot devices, as well. The story felt very well-rounded.
What I didn't like
I found myself trying to identify which key the song was supposed to be in at times; a bit more practice on the music would have nailed it.
My overall impression
Saturdays at 10am was a dynamic show. It had deceptively upbeat musical numbers with a moving story and powerful message. Ambition, corruption, betrayal, romance, power dynamics: it has it all, and is well worth the watch. It will have you laughing, clapping, and on the verge of tears.
