I have been hearing about this show for a couple of years as my mom reminisced about seeing it. So I entered with pretty high hopes about it capturing an era that I feel like I know something about, albeit secondhand. My impression after seeing it is that it left me thinking that era was... rather silly. Sort of in an American Monty Python sort of way. Don't get me wrong, the opening and closing numbers of Aquarius and Let the Sun Shine in were phenomenal. And I think the plot, when there was one, had potential. But in between all that, were some musical numbers that had no resonance for me and some scenes that made very little sense.
So I guess I wish there were more recognizable songs, and a little bit more tension building towards the climax. Otherwise, I feel a bit let down.
