Critic Reviews
Season 1 Review:
The series perfectly captures the sometimes tedious, often stressful, occasionally magical process of songwriting, recording and performing, with Keough and Claflin handling their own vocals in impressive fashion. ... The series is an exhilarating slice of fictional but authentic 1970s rock ’n’ roll.

Season 1 Review:
“Daisy Jones” features exceptional performances throughout, but there are a few standouts — a never-been-better Claflin, a mercurial Keough and an entrancing Morrone. It all makes for one Amazon Prime’s best series yet. But heed these words of advice: Episode 10 will wreck you when it drops that mic.

Season 1 Review:
The ensemble clearly had lots of fun together, which translates to a delightful viewing experience. And the ’70s-era costumes and set design draw the audience into its world of sex, drugs, and, yes, rock ’n’ roll. Most especially, the love story at the center is compelling enough that viewers won’t want to miss a moment of its highs and lows. Much like its titular fictional band, Daisy Jones & The Six is destined to be a crowd-pleaser.

Season 1 Review:
Sometimes there’s absolutely nothing wrong in playing the classics, and what the TV series lacks in ambition or originality, it more than makes up for in sheer dramatic heft, showstopping original songs, and an ensemble cast that’s virtually note-perfect across the board.

Season 1 Review:
While the series may be criticized for a certain rose-colored approach to rock’s manipulation, selfishness and self-destruction, its fundamental good humor is quite compelling. Imperfect and fault-ridden like the people it depicts, “Daisy Jones & the Six” has a hard-earned forgiving heart that may leave you a blubbering mess.

Season 1 Review:
There’s a chance the folks who enjoy the adaptation of Daisy Jones & the Six the most will be the ones who are experiencing the story for the first time. While book-to-screen adaptations certainly don’t have to follow story beats to a tee in order to be successful, some of the more drastic changes here don’t feel in service of the central narrative.

Season 1 Review:
The [dramamentary] format doesn’t always work, especially later in the series when the confessional interviews are fewer and farther between, but still: It’s a different approach that gives everything a bit of a zhuzh as the action leaps between then and now, and what people say now and what we see actually happened then.

Season 1 Review:
The show looks and sounds polished, beautifully capturing the earth-toned aesthetics of the era and producing an impressive album of earworms. But it’s a sun-kissed misfire that reduces what could have been a fascinating look at the profundity of artistic connection to a shallow soap opera.
