    Incredibly dull and boring TV show. Musical insertion did not save this series, the plot is half-baked without depth and reality. It is better to see once more Glee

    The acting is mostly terrible with the exception of Queen Latifah. The music is not memorable but the girls do have pretty decent voices. I just wish they were likable. They all have such terrible attitudes it's hard to want them to succeed.

    If Daniels had put more emphasis on the polish of his artifice and gave the show’s aesthetic the same bombast that it’s tawdry, openly cheesy dialogue gives the story, Star might have proven to be a subversive, infuriated series. It’s overall look, however, is more chintzy than anything else, wrecked with soft focus and lazy, unconvincing you-are-there camerawork.

    Rather than honestly represent the storyline’s treacherous scenarios--which include parental, drug, and alcohol abuse, as well as more outrageous extremes like murder--Daniels’ drama exploits the perilous conditions it portrays, grounding its fantasy in a false reality.

    The musical numbers are the best part of Star, and all three of the young leads seem to have singing talent as well as fresh faces. ... The negative to that is that none of the three is much of an actress, and their weak performances can't give the show the weight or momentum it needs. Awkward dialogue and cliched plots are additional problems.
