Soooo... I realize last posts here were last year, but I was just watching it on Netflix and was kind of desperate to find a place to protest my irritation LOL about some of the people in the groups, especially the music directors .
I haven't read the whole thread but, but enjoyed reading and seeing that most of us feel the same way about most of it. Something that is mentioned in page 1:
music directors need to chill, it seems like they have nuclear codes (or some like that)
made me laugh so SO hard...you are SO right!!!!
I'm almost 60 years old, a Brazilian living in London(UK) for over 25 years, former performer with 30 years of stage, mainly in musicals or as lead singer in bands, with a 21 years old daughter who also went into the Performing Arts, she has a musical theater degree and is now in Uni doing screen acting.
The acapella thing isn't something big here in the UK, I don't think we even have groups here? I maybe wrong but doubt I am .It was my daughter who showed me Pentatonix when they weren't the huge thing they are now, and we watched the two Pitch Perfects. which were enjoyable movies, first one a lot more so. This Sing It On wasn't made as a singing show, so, as a reality TV (which I have to admit I am NOT a fan of) is ok.
I just think some of the people are far to up their ( | ) LOl and especially couldn't stand Michael and Issac. They were, I think, lucky the judges didn't get to see what we see in this series or they would have even less of a chance to make it.
I think that from what I' ve seen up to now (I' almost done with the series 1 but I doubt I will watch S2) I can't say I went nuts with any of the groups featured, but then again, when you have Pentatonix as a sample (and I had them on repeat in a playlist for quiet a while LOL) is difficult to find something that compares... I am not saying there isn't anything, but most certainly not the groups featured in this program!!!
Thanks for giving me and enjoyable read and a chance to vent my irritation a bit LOL
