    Most likely this free episode is only available to stream in North America.

    True, unfortunately :bawling:
    Not even. It's not working in Canada.

    I watched it. I admit that I walked away wondering if I'll hang on for the rest of the season.

    It was a little cheesy... The storylines seemed a little forced, and there was way more drama than I expected. I will try to watch a couple more episodes as long as I can find them online.

    I agree completely. The PJ bit didn't flow. It absolutely seemed forced. Hopefully it will work itself around. Often the first season of something is a bit wonky. For now, I'm not going to stop life just to watch it. If I catch it, I catch it.

    It was decent. I'll definitely give it a few more episodes.

    It's a show about putting on a show. Hilarity ensues. Muppet Show redux.

    watched it last night. thought it was good and had some potential. not a big fan of every show having to have the sexual tension between main characters right off the bat though. kept my attention for the hour. will be interesting to see where they can take it with the story lines.

    They should've pushed the premiere date to this week so it wouldn't have to go up against the last 10 minutes of GoT.

    Would have been cool if this show was set in the 70s and it followed the roadies working for Stillwater from Almost Famous.

    CAMERON CROWE CINEMATIC UNIVERSE!

    That could of been cool. Rock in it's hey dey. Could of had them following around a young band. It's a weird premise to do in 2016, because most of the rock bands capable of doing Arena tours are no longer young. So it's roadies following around experienced rockers :)

    I thought it looked familiar, but then my I figured maybe most arena's look the same :)

    EP2 tonight @ 10p ET/PT on Showtime.

    Did anyone outside the USA or doesn't have Apple Music get a chance to hear the Frightened Rabbit & Mike McCready track “I Wish I Was Sober" ?

    ‘Roadies’ EP Winnie Holzman on Working with Cameron Crowe, Experiencing Pearl Jam

    http://collider.com/roadies-winnie-holzman-interview/

    Did you get to spend time with any bands, prior to diving into this show?

    HOLZMAN: Cameron set up a little trip for me, so I was able to do a little bit of traveling on a bus for one night, and it was with the Pearl Jam tour. This is embarrassing to admit, but I didn’t really know anything about Pearl Jam. Of course, I knew who they were, but I had never really sampled them. But man, being at that concert was so intense. The joy and the rapture and the happiness on the faces of the fans is something I’ll never forget. I was really close to people, and just seeing what the band meant to people was so touching. That was such a cool feeling and just beautiful to witness.

    Episode 2 was alright. Needs more PJ. :p

    If you're on Twitter following @SHO_Roadies & gonna watch Roadies, on Sunday night, mute them early Sunday morning. I've never seen that many tweets / retweets from anyone before mentioning what's gonna happen in the episode, that hasn't been aired yet.

    I liked Episode 2 far better than Episode 1.
