The Eddy

Wonderful series! The characters spoke French, English, Spanish, Polish, Arabic, Croatian and many more languages and still this diversity was not the reason they were unable to understand each other. Sometimes, miscommunication goes beyond language, race, religion, gender, age... These people were unable to express their feelings. They could not take a moment to open up and speak their minds, say what they really wanted to say. Their miscommunication was not because of a language barrier but because of the obstacles they created themselves despite the love and care they actually had for each other. Jazz was their escape, their universal language and when they played, the moments where they actually freed themselves.. Beautiful, heartbreaking series. Excellent performances, amazing soundtrack.. (Got the soundtrack on Itunes and it's been playing for days!) I only wish there were more shows like these out there.

The Eddy is a remarkably done tv show that swoons you with its music but keeps you around for the amazing acting. The episodes are their own unique pieces within the broad scope of the story. I would highly recommend checking out the show when it drops on Netflix.

Oh so refreshing to cast musicians as musicians! A heartfelt story, well written and ably acted, with the unique and so appreciated approach that the music central to the story is performed (and in many cases composed) by the actors, who are also excellent professional musicians. There is thus nothing to distract from the story. Rather, it all contributes and moves the story forward. A wonderful, enjoyable and at times moving experience!

I liked The way they managed to show barely every member's story and their difficulties in each episode , And how the music remains their only refuge from life pressure. And the acting is just magnificent ,such talented casts and musicians

This series is much grittier than anything I would typically watch, however the individual characters are quite compelling and the music is absolutely wonderful. The fact that actual musicians were cast in their roles, as opposed to actors playing musicians was a brilliant choice.
