This!! I don’t understand why some ppl disliked it. It made perfect sense.

@@sorayapellegrini6212 she was very victimized in the book understandably but also she was shown to be strong and I like that this choice gave her some of her own agency back and made her seem less saint like and more human

"Everybody was keeping secrets, now I had mine..."

Hated the choice because the rift between billy and eddie in the show and in the book had nothing to do with Camila.

@@ashleysmith1369 I felt like this added more fuel to that fire but didn’t necessarily take away from the other factors that contributed to the falling out in the book. That’s just my opinion though!

I was going to say that. I misseed that in the TV show

I agree, Julia was an accident but Billy and Camila having Susana and Maria was so important to their relationship. It showed how much they loved each other, and wanted to be together.

I just finished the show... i tougth he'll at least mention them in the last interview. But... it still made me cry.

Right, like when she says "let's just be together ".

My mom personally lost all sympathy for Daisy during the photoshoot scene in which Daisy goes (paraphrasing) "Did you seriously bring your fucking wife??". In the book it's made apparent that Daisy's crush on Billy is a source of deep self-hatred but in the series she looks almost proud of herself at times

Agree. Plus, the night that she and The Six play together, it was a very climatic moment in the book because it was being built carefully, but it happened a bit too fast in the show. Nevertheless, the show is still amazing

I liked show Camilla, I liked seeing more of her. But what you say is soooo true! I loved Camilla in the books because she was dead ass shure that Daisy wasn't a threat. She was a force to be reacon with. I think book Camilla shows thru in the show in moments like when she punchs Billy and say to him he should get his act together when the baby comes, and doesn't left room to argue.

this put into words how i felt about her show portrayal. i don't hate it, there's definitely some things that they added that made sense. i loved how angry she got at billy when she caught him cheating during the first tour, and just in general how forthright she was. but some of the changes cheapened her character a bit. in the book she isn't constantly worried that billy is going to leave her for daisy, because she genuinely believes he will choose her in the end. and there's nothing wrong with her being portrayed as more insecure in the show, because that's valid and doesn't make her any less stronger. but it just seemed like that was all there was to her character...

Sorry why she did what ? I haven’t read the book sadly. But I have seen all the episodes :) Ty

what does he say in his interview?

@@deborah4747 *!!!SPOILER WARNING!!!* "PETE LOVING (bassist, The Six): I don't have much to say about any of this. I don't have any ill will toward anyone or anything. I have great memories of everybody. But that part of my life is long gone. I own my own artificial turf installation company now. Jenny and I live in Arizona. My kids are grown. It's a good life. That's really all I have to contribute. I'm nearing seventy but I'm still looking forward, okay? I'm not looking back. You're welcome to put this in your book but that's going to have to be it for me." some things to take note: 1. this is a huge deal because you would assume pete didn't want to talk about what went on in the band cause something happened between him and someone/s from the band. 2. this happened towards the end so this was a shocker. it's unexpected because you would assume again that pete wouldn't give out an interview. but, of course, the plot twists don't end ;))) 3. pete ended up with jenny!! pete and jenny's relationship wasn't really documented much in the book but it was still talked about and it was cute to see it bloom, even for a bit. pete was also the first one to express that he wanted to leave the band because he wanted to marry jenny and live a normal life with her. 4. this interview makes it all the more heartfelt because pete is a private person yet he allowed julia to squeeze in an interview of him for her book.

Agree, I wish it was more subtle.

they were playing up the love triangle (for lack of a better term) thing in the trailer so that didn't surprise me. it just feels to obvious, not as layered as in the book.

The official story is that Mick Fleetwood was shopping for a recording facility & producer. He was given a tape of the one & only Buckingham Nicks album as a sample of Keith Olsen's studio & production work. Instead, Fleetwood got in touch with Buckingham about joining the band.

Not quite but there was definitely still good stuff for sure.

Precisely, I appreciate how they fleshed out Simone and Camila more, though sadly, they regressed on Karen's development.

simone having her own storyline was the best major change in this show imo

Disagree completely. You could essentially cut out Simone's entire story and it would have made basically no difference and not changed the story at all. Add to that her story came at the expense of the moment of the storytelling and the opportunity to flesh out more of the Six was missed as well.

3 daughters actually! But I’ve heard people speculate that maybe the twins will possibly be Eddie’s

I had pictured Daisy as a hippie, much like her inspiration Stevie Nicks, but I pictured fire red hair.

You should definitely read it, the characters development is better than the show.

@@melybarles7988 Thank you

so true i think he was alot my likeable and charismatic in the book which explains why he was the front man (aswell as his talent ofc), and he was alot more loyal to camilla in the original story, denying him and daisys thing for basically the whole story

@@tee1426 Yes!! And he was very nice to people who liked the band, he’d talk to them for a long time, ask about their lives and that’s why people liked him he thanked every fan and was down to earth more.

I feel like was more a financial decision to not hire 2 very young twins since based on the trajectory of the TV plot it wouldn’t have made a huge difference in showing billy being a bit of an absent father anyway

Honestly if you don't already like it I doubt you'll start to

I'd keep reading. I didn't get hooked until Daisy met the rest of the band

It is best to read it while listening to the audiobook. It’s a whole different experience ❤

Listen to the audiobook. It's amazing. I think reading the book would be tedious given its documentary/interview-style format.

I suggest it on audio. It was sooo good in audio format. Bc of thebinterview style I think.

They want more DRAMATIC ending

@@lynnlee2282 I saw someone comment about what daisy did to them etc. having no idea what they meant. I never read the book. Just finished the entire show. So I see now lol. Ty. To be honest. I think it would be a lot more dramatic if it ended like the book. with a showdown lol of the two women finally being truly honest. With one asking the other to sacrifice her DREAMS she’s had her whole life not to mention her close relationships her family really, not to mention a huge income, all To help save the marriage of the man she truly believes is HER soulmate. Throughput the whole series it gave me the idea because of the things they were saying in interviews later on that there was someone most likely Daisy was going to do something huge and Sudden that will end everything ONE big dramatic ending. So when she left for rehab and the rest bickering I was a big confused.

I was so much looking forward to this scene

Yes Camilla told her to but in the show Daisy tells Billy to go back to Camilla. Glad they got back together. Would love to have senn Billy and Camilla back together raising their kids and being happy

@@ellisvanbeek7297 me too 🥲

I agree on Simone, but it’s implied Camila cheats in the book- just hate it’s with Eddie. Pete was kind of boring and didn’t really add anything to the storyline. I didn’t understand the kiss either, but someone commented to me that it’d be so unlikely they didn’t kiss in the book either especially since we find out who the “author” is.

5. The entire ending

It is implied that Camilla cheats in the book, but I don’t like who she cheats with in the series like wtf

@@stephaniethomas403 6. Cutting Daisy’s whole solo career and album, and no Hank

billy and daisy kissing was the best change

She’s actually somewhat likeable in the book, she’s more respectful of Camila’s relationship, and is a better person.

@@ifyouliedownwithme Maybe the artress who played Daisy rubbed me the wrong way

She’s controversial, but they made some changes in her character in the series that made her less sympathetic

Right? I felt that was not necessary

Agreed

Lol I thought the same. And it's not to be shallow, it's for the medium. When you don't know thes people personally (you can only identify so much with the limited screen time), you need to simulate the feelings Billy has through appearance and on screen charisma, the way Billy would see things. Regardless of physical looks (IRL), when you are connecting to someone and loosing connection with another, that feeling of attraction change manifests itself in a way that only others watching could relate through metaphor. In this case, making one character clearly physically more attractive and charismatic than the other, as Billy's eyes would see it.

Wow, what an ignorant comment! It's not only looks that makes you feel attracted to a person, Billy feels connected to daisy beyond her looks, love is not about looks, have you ever really loved someone even??

Both actresses are absolutely beautiful. But it was never about sexual attraction, it was an emotional connection.

It’s interesting that you think a women’s looks, who is “ hotter” Is the deciding factor whether men will cheat or leave a parter for another. Especially in this case where they are both beautiful people. It’s also funny the that you missed the main reason they feel such a deep love between them it’s 100% who they are on the INSIDE. their common goals, likes, fears, dreams, talent, struggle with addiction etc I mean all that time together with strong feelings for each other yet they never made it physical. Just like in real life. Only a small portion of men get their value/worth from an attractive women on their arm, a very insecure man at that.

@@dragons_red I strongly disagree with you 😏on their looks and I can imagine I’m not alone here. Lol. They are both attractive women just in different ways, with daisy being more naturally beautiful with the wavy long long hair attractive features both have great body’s and the wife being idk how to describe her other than dark-haired beauty. Im guessing you are both under 40. I could be wrong.🤷🏼‍♀️ The wife’s looks may be a bit more trendy at the moment. But I bet if you took a poll it would be quite close. Again beauty is in the eye of the beholder after all 😏🤭

They changed the whole ending!

@@stephaniethomas403 exactly😵

They had to make screen time for the black/gay stuff thay wasn't in the book. It's a requirement for Hollywood these days. I have nothing against stories/movies/shows for or about people of color or gay/lesbian, what annoys me is that it has to be shoe horned into everything that didn't originally have it for more virtue signaling instead of just putting it in new material naturally and let it be it's own wonderful thing.

I understand Pete had a small part in the book and that’s why they left his character out but I still think they could have made it work. Make it funny, like he’s always absent or have him leave the band to be with his girlfriend when Billy was in rehab. When they try to explain the band name with only five of them is funny. Lol good effort!

THANK YOU!! I thought I was the only one upset about these changes, why mess with perfection?? The book was incredible and the show just wasn’t good.

Come on, Pete didn’t add that much to the story. Plus, the series might not be a word by word adaptation, but the book’s vibe is just there

Lol wtf is wokified?!

@@travisspazz1624 In this instance, diminishing the male characters while expanding on the female characters.

@@shakazulu3594 Woke equals woman? .......ok God forbid a show with a female character in the title give more screen time to female characters! And I don't see how the male characters were diminished at all.

@@travisspazz1624 The video explains the character changes from the book to the show. Feel free to watch it again.

The book was already “woke”. It’s written by a woman. With women as main characters. Discussing the agenda of these women. Does that scare you?
