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.
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.
The series is really good. It deals with a really important issue, the acting is awesome (except for Francisco) and it is a truly nice entertaining show... BUT WHAT THE H*LL IS WRONG WITH THE SOUNDTRACK? Who was responsible for this? In the beginning I couldn't keep me from laughing when hip hop and pop music started playing, but then it just started to irritate me. Really. It spoiled some parts of the series.
It's hard to imagine that anyone who appreciates the series as a period piece wouldn't cringe at the music chosen throughout the first season. It's true that other liberties are taken that don't necessarily reflect the period but none as jarring as the soundtrack. If that is an attempt to connect the message to the present day, please stop!! I promise we can all make that connection without watching a 1920's jazz club blaring bad electronic music. Please spare us that discomfort in season 2!!
The actors, the plot, costumes, everything aligned for this series. I simply did not rate it higher due to the poor selection of music. Music can create a feeling and atmosphere, and as a period piece, the choice of modern pop lullabies really killed the vibe for me. Especially in dance room scenes that should have great music from the era. That was disappointing, everything else is A+
