Bear and a Banjo

It tells you it’s a fictional story? I quite enjoy it. It reminds me of old radio shows from when you would listen to a new episode. I like the music, and I like how they acknowledge mental illness as well. So far I quite enjoy it. But I’m a fan of this style.

This show is like the quantum leap of rock ‘n’ roll. These two characters pop in whenever and wherever something’s about to happen, influence the right person and... history happens! The characters are a little over the top but, they’re so enjoyable I can’t wait for season 2. Dennis Quaid is terrific as usual and the music is awesome. Never thought I’d be looking forward to hearing more from the guy who writes for Justin Bieber ( he’s not the genre I like) but, Poo Bear can really rock in any style! I look forward to hearing more from Bear and Banjo!

I really wanted to like this, given the talent and premise. Unfortunately the storylines are disjointed and overly wrought. The music just doesn’t fit the genre or timeframe. Characters never develop fully or even really become likable. Season finale was a letdown. My takeaway is that it’s more of an ego project for Jingle Jared and Pooh Bear than a truly inspired drama. Production on some epis is fantastic and I really liked the live performance bonus. Strip away the overproduction and those songs are pretty good.

This is a blast! The history mixed with this amazing story, too bad the trolls are hitting this show, it is well worth the time. And the music is some of the best I’ve heard. Now I like Dillon!
