Good with one exception
I liked this series so far. However, every single time the music comes on, I am pulled completely out of the story world and into modern times. This is a big mistake on the part of the producers and or directors, as music is absolutely crucial to story. This movie is set in the 1920s. Why are we listening to EDM and Euro Pop from this decade then? A bit annoying and Such a shame.
The music is a real problem for me.
I really like the series, I like how it develops, the way each girl has a different personality and that it is woven into an interesting tapestry, the technological reality presented in the film and of course, the setting. It depicts the 1920s amazingly well. That is until they play any music.
It completely destroys the mood. While I could ordinary like some of the pieces, seeing them in this setting destroys both, the music and the amazing production. Why? it seems as if a teenager was put in charge of the music while adults did the rest. It's not that there wasn't amazing music at that time!, and it is not as if new groups could compose music following the 20s style!

The ending ruined the show
I loved watching this show since the beginning, but the last season? What was that?? Such a bad ending, such a disappointment. This could have been written way better, it deserved to be written better. Definitely did not expect this.
Who is responsible for the music??
I really like the series, good composition, costumes and everything. But what is wrong with the music? It's the 1920's not 2010. That is probably the one thing that is really bugging me. Anyway, I recommend this series if you like drama. It reminds me a bit of the series ''Velvet''.
Musical score undercuts enjoyment of show
I would love to lose myself in the Cable Girls series but am jerked out of their reality by the musical scoring of contemporary music. I mute the most egregious bits with synthesizer and electric guitar and just read the subtitles. What a shame - otherwise the show is fun with good sets and costumes.
