please watch julie and the phantoms!!! it’s such a good show. basically it’s about a teen band that died in 1995 and reappeared as ghosts in 2020. the only person who can see them is a girl named julie, who is an awesome musician, but hasn’t played music since her mom died.
its a fun show that tackles mature themes like death and loss
the main character is latina, her best friend is black, and there’s a lot of racial diversity sprinkled throughout the show
one of the band members is gay, he gets a love interest, and as a queer person, it is handled so well. there was no internalized homophobia, no repression, none of his friends were weird about it. it was such a refreshing change of pace.
the band is made up of three (3) himbos that share one (1) brain cell. they’re so stupid and i love them
it has a killer soundtrack. every song slaps, and i enjoy listening to the music separately from the show as well.
the actors are so talented. the first ep was a lil awkward, but they have great comedic timing, they all play the instruments their characters play, they wrote a song or two from the track.
it was directed by kenny ortega, who also directed high school musical, descendants, ferris buellers day off, etc.
it’s just,,, so good and fun and emotional and pure. it’s rated G so kids can watch it, but i really think adults can enjoy it too. like, i’m 19, and it’s one of my favorite shows.
also, if we get enough people to watch it and stream the music, there’s more of a chance that it will get a s2 and netflix and other streaming services will make more shows like this.
