What a long BLOG post title, what a fraud!
This week saw mid season show STAR finish with a big finale and the exciting prospect of Season 2 whenever that will air. Fox in the USA has long brought the viewer music dramas which not only bring us original and cover song performance but a look into the world of diversity.
Star brought us many different nationalities together for common goals and also diversity and acceptance to the front with a trans African American character Cotton front and centre with touching and real story-lines. Like Laverne Cox in Orange is the New Black this is real progress.
Orange is the New Black being on Netflix is often a lot more gritty being exempt about worrying about ratings and what may or may not offend a live audience but Star has done well.
Women's rights and the disgusting violence against women was also covered by the lead character Star and her vile footballer boyfriend.
The series leaves us with multiple questions and plot lines unanswered, I for one can not wait for Season 2. This show like Glee & Empire ahead of it Star has shown diversity and add in stories straight from the real (or sometimes FAKE) news makes for great drama television.
Star was not a huge ratings hit like Empire but if you like music, drama and a well writtern show, Star is for y'all.
Onto other matters I had no room for this on my other BLOG but Khalid's outstanding album has been my feature all week and here is a remix which landed on St Patricks day and my cousin's 31st BDAY.
