This comedy series depicts life of Diplo, a star DJ. Diplo is a real person and he very well knows about this show since he is an executive producer of the series and he definitely takes part in writing the scenario. Somebody on the Internet called this show 'Spinal Tap' for the dance music world and I do believe that it is the best possible way to describe it. There is a movie, 'Spinal Tap' which is celebrated for the way it depicts a story of a fictional rock band. It mocks all the existing clichés related to a life of a rock band in a grotesque and elegant way. (Run and watch it if you haven't, it's golden.) This series does the same to the world of popular music, constantly referring to the stars that we all know or have at least heard of once like Justin Bieber, Taylor Swift or Calvin Harris. Some of them are featured in the series, played by actors, obviously. The humour is definitely above-the-waist, the show is witty, the jokes sound neither vulgar nor cheesy. The dialogues sounded like the rest for my ears because after piling through first 10 minutes of completely non- funny first episodes of dozens comedy series I have found something that sounds quite smart. As a character Diplo is truly charming. Played by James van der Beek who showcased his comedy talent in 'Don't trust the B-- in Apartment 23', the star DJ is nothing but a talented, naive child who usually wants to have everything delivered to him right this instant which creates a lot of funny twists for the plot. What's precious is that he is absolutely impossible to be seriously mad at, like Peter Pan. His crew constantly moan about how unbearable Diplo is yet you can see that none would trade the chance to spend their days in such a fascinating and challenging way for anything else. I think other actors did a pretty good job as well, none of their performances seemed cringy or hard to believe. For me, this series is a breath of fresh air. It has its own unique vibe and grotesque as it is, it still lets us get a taste of the music world since real Diplo is an executive producer of the show and there is a grain of truth in every joke. I do not expect it to have good ratings since it looks kind of out-of- this-world, will definitely recommend it to all of my friends.

I only caught this show because James Van Der Beek went on Conan to promote it. The clip looked hilarious and so I set my DVR to record it. You should too. Before this show I couldn't have told you even who Diplo was, so I don't think it matters if you have a clue either. It's the right amount of over the top situations coupled with some seriously off the wall thinking. It even borderlines on the sweet and endearing at times. Some of the things Diplo says make him seem like a modern day Yogi Berra. Seriously, don't take my word for it, go DVR the show and watch it. It's comedy gold and every episode is pretty much a standalone experience worth watching multiple times.

I hope this is James Van Der Beek's major breakthrough! A clever critique about the music scene and the pop stars that end up surrounded by "lapdogs" that only ignite narcissistic personalities. A series about a current theme that doesn't (YET) resort to the use of obscene language and does not rely on the stereotypes associated with the music industry like showing naked women to illustrate their point of view to tell the story. I hope it doesn't get canceled or underrated like other equally good shows. A candid way to create entertainment. Highly Recommended!

A really funny kinda different style of mockumentary. James Van der Beek and cast are ace. A really easy watch, with tonnes of good one liners.

Not an accurate depiction but a really funny show. Just off the cuff comedy. Bobby lee and Van are hilarious both on their podcasts and the show.

It's not funny. I was forced to watch this, and I wanted to slit my wrists the whole time. I'd rather watch a farm birth. I'd rather die in a fire than watch another minute of this show. It's so bad.
