Packed with terrific choreography by “Maisel” alum Marguerite Derricks, the luxe-looking series — Season 1 comprises eight hour-long episodes — is filmed on location at familiar, postcard-worthy locales. .... If you’ve never seen “Swan Lake” — or even “Black Swan” — don’t fret. If you don’t know a plié from a pirouette, not to worry. “Étoile” is about the people, not the bends, leaps and spins.

While Étoile’s numerous characters help make the show feel very lived-in, it's also overstuffed, and I struggled to keep track of everyone in the first few episodes.

"Etoile" (which means "star" in French) wants to be more high-brow than it should. The dances are beautiful, but the characters shouldn't have to walk in others' toe shoes. We've seen the petulance, the bickering, the histrionics before. .... And the cast? It's too large for something that's already unwieldy. Eliminating the side stories (did we need Jack's sister in this?) could put the focus where it needs to be: creating art in a bankrupt society.
