Should I watch Treme?

How is it overall? START OFF slow or good all the way through?

It's a great show but nothing "exciting" happens.

If you're cool with that, then yeah, excellent TV show. I enjoyed it but I'll probably never watch it again.

Oh, and the music is on point.

About 3-4 songs/performances an ep on average, but you need to be open to different styles, genres and eras of music.

If you're open to shyt you'll hear anything from folksy shyt and NO street jazz to Mannie Fresh style bounce rap or classical and everything in between so you'll get put on to some cool shyt.

I have the soundtrack for every season.

So what is it then?

So what is it then?

It’s a show about a city rebuilding itself after one of the most public and devastating natural disasters in modern history, told from the perspective of its poorest inhabitants, muscisians who refuse to leave and want to keep the spirit alive, politicians who (whether for good or for profit) wanna rebuild and good honest people trying to get to the bottom of what really happened.

At least that’s how I’d sum it up.

It’s about a culture rebuilding itself, slowly, painfully but resiliently, created by a guy who (I don’t think was from there - I could be wrong) loved NO.

Definitely recommended. I really dug it.

The Mardi Gras Indians and the culture around them is so dope
