Neon

The amount of low rated reviews are quite unnecessary. Hard to believe that a show with cringey storylines and more plot-holes than one can ever keep track of, like Dynasty, has a 7.3 - but this has such a low rating?

Visually, the show is great. Amazing shots, vibrant colours. Love to see the varied experiences of different characters, and the poetic justice received by respective characters. Great diverse cast too.

The common criticism that things look like they're coming to easy for the lead... make no sense? This is supposed to be an entertaining story about a man who's having a rollercoaster experience with his music career. What's with current day viewer bases having an obsession for negativity and failure. Ugh.

"Neon," the reggaeton series, debuted on Netflix on October 19th, featuring a cast including Jessie Camacho, Rose Eshay, and Daddy Yankee, who also serves as an executive producer.

Daddy Yankee's 'Neon' series falls short of capturing the real essence of hustling. While young people hustle for their dreams, it's far from glamorous.

There are no piles of cash, extravagant strip club celebrations, Porsche rides, or encounters with A-list celebrities with private plane journeys, all within a mere 24 hours.

The series consists of 8 episodes and follows the journey of three friends who relocate from a small Florida town to pursue their reggaeton dreams in Miami - led by Santi, the artist.

While the premise holds promise, the series begins to lose its grip as it progresses. The storyline takes a turn for the worse, becoming increasingly implausible by the fourth episode.

It's safe to say that you might not find it worthwhile to finish all the episodes, as the narrative becomes unbelievable for a group of young hustlers.

The story of their struggle could have been presented more convincingly. The way they stumble upon record deals, private planes, strip clubs, bundles of cash, and endless parties seems far from reality.

It's cringeworthy and not worth following the storyline, although the reggaeton music in the series is a highlight.

The trailer hinted at potential sex scenes, intimate moments, and romance, but unfortunately, none of that materialized in the series. Including such elements might have added value to the show and made it more engaging.

As it stands, it's rather lacking in entertainment value and comes across as somewhat dull.

The series had immense potential for compelling storylines.

The struggles of the record label owner in his failing marriage could have been a gripping narrative.

The unjust dismissal of the assistant was utterly nonsensical.

The powerful LGBTQ theme in the series was not adequately explored. NEON could have been vastly improved with the inclusion of these promising storylines.

I highly recommend everyone to watch this show on Netflix. This show was released on my 29th birthday on October 19th. It's very hilarious entertaining and the music is something unique. I loved the characters.

My main problem is that these reviews on here are very negative or mixed. Just be more open minded!!! I just wish people would appreciate a more diverse storytelling. This show inspired me to keep achieving my dreams. As well as reflecting on the current music business. I loved the look of Florida with the aqua ocean, neon nights, colorful cars which are very cool.

I hope Neon gets a Season 2 because I'm tired of good shows but getting enough recognition. If you're reading this please go watch Neon. You'll just feel better about yourself. 7/10.

I feel like this was written by millennials. In what world would these people get a music contract, their action, the claims, the idealism of how the industry works...it's the writing< it's so bad. Shame because everything else is fine. There's two ways of looking at this, either you use it to show why writers today don't deserve the pay they claim, or you use it to show what you get when you don't pay for professional writers.ironically, it portrays an internet star trying to make his way in the "real" world of the music industry, while not being taken seriously by his peers. If this was made for YouTube, written staring and directed by a tuber then you could say it had potentials for such a person. To find out this had real producers, etc. Well! So my conclusion, is as the headline says "the wish version of Entourage" if you haven't seen entourage< skip this and go watch that, unless your particularly into the music scene, because Entourage is the actor version.
