Roadies Audience Reviews

Humaira Grant It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.
Hayden Kane There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes
Kimball Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.
Cheryl A clunky actioner with a handful of cool moments.
joanna_nieroda Am I reading right???? The show is not coming back??? Omg what a loss. I loved it!!! Hope you change your mind and bring back the show. It maybe started a little slow but watching entire season was such a pleasure. It made me cry, smile, be happy and mad. The relationships between characters are so transcendent. The quirkiness of the show a pleasure to watch. Again. Bring the show back.
Vincent Romero This show is so terrible that I decided to wrote my first IMDb review. Where to start? I guess from the beginning would be best. Firstly, the constant name dropping on the show is abominable. Every character in every episode drops celebrity musician names. Everyone from skynard to Gwen Stefani. Secondly, every episode also Contains random people Luke Wilson used to hang out with talking about just how WILD and CRAZY he used to be when he was a drunk. That particular actor might be the least likely person to have us believe was ever such a wild uncontrollable heathen. Also, they worship these music acts that make cameos on the show as if they were the God damn Who (which they name drop the Who in an episode or 2). These no name hacks couldn't sell out a Starbucks, let alone an area. Every single one of these minor characters is written as some kind of philosopher. It's horrendous. They all have to give speeches about the "deeper" meaning of things. You also can't watch an episode without really really wanting to inflict all kinds of bodily harm to Wes. The clueless sycophant that kiss the asses of all the washed up has beens that grace the show from time to time. There's 2 love stories going on, neither of which are that interesting. The only likable character on the show, the rest of the characters make out to be the asshole. Look, I could go on and on but I shan't. I'll finish with a, I can't believe Abrams and Crowe would ever attach their good names to such terrible garbage. The writing is awful, the characters are insufferable and the idea that the writers insult everyone's intelligence is a giant insult to roadies everywhere. I personally know roadies, they're not this. Not by a long shot.
hobs006 I watched every episode until now (S01E08) and I fell in love with it. Some people may say it's a slow beginning but I didn't feel that. Imogen Poots delivers a fantastic drive into the characters right away and I just digged it from the first minute. I read so many crap about the series and about critics who say that it's not accurate to the actually jobs of roadies and so on...of course not. I'ts TV....it's entertainment! I really hope Grey's Anatomy, ER, CSI, and every other show you can think of are not the standards for how it works in those jobs either.I really hope that there is more to come and hopefully some more seasons.If you like new music there is another plus for you! Real Artists are playing real music. What's not to love!?!
Eric I don't understand the people who say that they love this show. Now, it's not terrible, but I do have to say that I feel it's one of those shows that make you feel manipulated and dirty after watching it because it seems like they introduce "cute" story lines just for the sake of entertainment, rather than to advance the story of the character's arcs. For example, let's have different characters say "it is what it is" throughout the episode just because it's funny. It's not that funny and it makes the show look way too produced as opposed to being natural aka cliché'. Look at great shows like Veep, Silicon Valley, Game of Thrones, Ray Donovan. Veep isn't real or pretend to be real, but all of the characters are consistent which makes it real. Every character is true to themselves which I find lacking in Roadies. The characters in Roadies seem like cartoon versions of themselves. The good things about Roadies is that the directing is good, acting is good, production values are strong, and even though I feel dirty watching the show, I'm still watching, albeit grudgingly. I also think it would be much better as a 30 minute show vs. an hour. In closing, I think the show reminds me of a lot of college theater that I've seen. It looks like it's a lot of fun to be one of the cast members or producers, but not as fun to be an audience member.
