The Big Leap: I Want You Back (2021)
Season 1, Episode 1
8/10
Less This Is Us, more of a Glee.
23 September 2021
The trailers didn't accurately market this show. I'm a loyal viewer of 911 which aired before this. The marketing made it look like a This Is Us kind of show, which I'm not into. In reality, it's a little more like Glee. It was surprisingly funny, and also managed to have conversations on modern issues that weren't totally one-sided. I think the main concept is novel enough, and the show manages to be very diverse without (so far) falling into the cliched trappings most shows do where characters will awkwardly state their personal intersection followed by all the struggles their group can face in the country. This show should feel like an after-school special, but it doesn't. A show about dancing that's actually fun is quite fitting.
