George & Tammy

I am not much of a country fan so I had no expectations or the knowledge to nit pic the performances. I think both Jessica and Michael should win awards for their fantastic roles and, I loved their singing as well, this is a departure for Michael Shannon from my experience and he blew me away, Jessica Chastain is so beautiful, I now have a crush on her. I had no idea that their story was so fraught with addictions, jealousy and the usual hangers on pushing them to perform so they could make money off them. Overall great casting and a heart felt sad love story worth telling. I am telling everyone I know to watch the show.

I've been captivated from start to end! The casting is amazing. Both actors have understood the assignment. Jessica is stunning and her voice OMG it's perfect.

The flipping table scene is insanely good. They better not ruin the rest of the show and this iconic love story that gave us some iconic songs although we all know it's not gonna end well, i'm still here for it😂

Jessica Chastain singing Stand by your man is candy for the ears but i really do believe i've just unlocked a new obsession for Michael Shannon! Once again an actor who does no social media so i'll have to dig for crumbles on the internet 😂

This review is written to those who were never brought up listening to "country" music. I'm one who wasn't. I watched this series because I like the main actors. Man, I blown away by the lyrics of these songs and the way they were sung! I didn't care if George and Tammy's life was accurately portrayed. I cared more about how the actors and the series itself made the words to these songs so vivid to me. I congratulate everyone who made this emotional story possible... which included their youngest daughter. It made me appreciate this music so much more. I'm impressed how how these simple songs can be packed with so much emotion. I'm convinced that anyone who isn't familiar with this genre will develop a special liking for it. I sure as hell did.

No one can fault Jessica Chastain or Michael Shannon"s performances. They even do an amazing job of singing. Of course no one can compare with George Jones and Tammy Wynette in the eyes of their fans. They are still impressive.

I would have given this a full ten, but it's one flaw is dragging out the story. This could have been three episodes instead of six. Dragging it out seemed painful.

I'd rather see a miniseries about their rise to the top. Their relationship was so troubled and trying, we already got the point and dragging all of us through it was unnecessary.

Again, top notch performances from the leads.

The music was not right....it was dragging at times. The voices are not as strong as the real George and Tammy. George's voice was one of a kind. I saw him in person a few times. Maybe they should have lip synched instead. Jessica does look a little like Tammy. The action was true according to accounts I had heard before. I think this mini series could have been better. Now I'll have to get my George and Tammy albums out and give them another listen. Tim Blake Nelson was Roy Acuff who also had a big voice but not in this show. Above all, the music has to be right for a music bio to succeed. Wish this one had.
