- TriviaActor Sam Claflin initially overstated his musical experience. After an embarrassing audition using Elton John, Claflin was still in the running due to his acting talent and used the pandemic lock down to work with vocal coaches and guitar teachers over Zoom. The change in his musical range from early audition to filming was described as "dramatic."
- Crazy creditsPROLOGUE: "On October 4, 1977 Daisy Jones & the Six performed to a sold out crowd at Soldier Field in Chicago, Illinois. They were one of the biggest bands in the world at the time, fresh off their award-winning, multi-platinum selling album 'Aurora.' It would be their final performance. In the 20 years since, members of the band and their inner circle have refused to speak on the record about what happened...Until now."

Featured review
Almost perfect really
If you're a fan you don't have to read anything to know Daisy Jones and The Six borrowed quite a bit from Fleetwood Mac. And I find myself unable to review this series without reference to them. I think that's fair because it would impossible to make nostalgic music dramas without being heavily influenced by those (Rock Pop) bands which dominated that era.
It's basically a fictional version of that documentary about the making of (F Mac album) 'Rumours', including emotionally charged compositions and lyrical battles between band members, who are all to some extent entangled in the intensity. It's the classic love/hate story that produces some very fine music. If you've been in bands - especially on the road - you'll know how all this could happen.
The reason that's more than ok is because The Six do actually have the great songs. Maybe not as enduringly massive as F-Mac's but still, you can believe that they would have had success.
Riley Keogh is fabulous and more than equivalent to represent Stevie Nicks' dulcet tones. Billy is not as edgy as Lindsay Buckingham but that's OK. They even have the classy English girl on keyboards, although Suki Waterhouse's character Karen isn't the singer/songwriter that Christine McVie was. A less memorable bassist (sorry, John). And let's hear it for the ubiquitous fun-loving drummer!
It was funny, dramatic, authentic and a good story - and there were sufficient loose ends, as there are in life. Another IMDb user reviewer wrote about how the events may not be quite as we see them, and that's really worth considering.
Highly recommended for Pop music fans and hopeless romantics.
