Girls5eva

This show is extremely funny but only to the right audience.

If you liked kimmy Schmidt (or anything by tina fey), this is definetly for you.

If you love love love hamilton, you will love this.

If you liked the Crazy Ex Girlfriend Songs, this is perfect for you.

If you like shows you can watch over and over and still find new hidden jokes, references and callbacks, this is definitely for you.

This show has a high addiction factor. I constantly watch it again and again!

Although i've recommend it a lot, not many would agree with me, but only because it is just for a very niche audience.

So, any negative commenters just don't get the jokes and humor of it all. You have to experience it for yourself!

I absolutely love Sara Bareilles (literally my favourite singer/songwriter of all time) and she is great in this (or anything she's in). But Paula Pell is the true star of this show with her comedic timing. Those great one liners and brilliant comedic delivery - she's absolutely hilarious.

I just love hearing Sara Bareilles sing in every episode and she really is a great actress! She is the very definition of a triple threat!! Busy Philips is good in this too and Renée Elise Goldsberry's voice is just insane. It's not wonder she has done so well for herself on Broadway!!

This is a light and funny show with some great music (and a few annoying earworms).

I don't know why all the hate for this show I mean it's hilarious and it's totally Fey's style! I hope they will make more seasons and more episodes! Renee Elise is sooo funny! Love her character so much. Love the others too even tho busy's character seems a little too forced to be a stupid/aloof blonde. But overall the show totally deserves all the Emmy nominations and win!

A cluttered, ropey but remarkably likeable slice of nostalgic millennial foolishness from Meredith Scardino - strongly reminiscent of Kimmy Schmidt but lacking its consistency somewhat. It's held together by a strong central cast, some incredibly sharp observations on contemporary (and early 00s) pop culture and a bottomless well of surreal asides and over the top scenarios. Good solid silly fun with some real heart mixed in there too. Thoroughly deserves its deeper continuation on Netflix, although sadly it still seems to have found it's audience really.

Girls5Eva starts with a brilliantly idiotic 90s song in which a one-hit-wonder-to-be sings about their inevitable life long success as nonsensically as possible. The series then jumps to the present, when the 4 still-alive but generally forgotten bandmates get a brief moment of attention and decide to ride it all the way to the top.

This is very much in the Tina Fey comedy vein. One negative review described it as more "30 Rock" "Kimmy Schmidt" humor as though that was a negative. I agree with the comparisons but not with the negativity.

The songs are amazing. Some are pitch perfect take offs of the demeaning drivel middle-aged men write for teen girls, like the wonderfully creepy Dream Girlfriend, and as the band tries new material we get fantastic numbers like "I'm Afraid," which goes from relatable fears to weirdly specific and insane ones.

The cast is terrific and the jokes are insane yet support a story of growth and striving.

Highly recommended.
