The Eddy: Season 1

"If you can get in sync with its rhythms, particularly at this moment, you may find some of its revelations inspiring."

"If The Eddy is the sort of show you want to curl up with, maybe with a glass of scotch and the lingering memories of what it was once like, to go out into the world for a low-key night of live music, you’ll know pretty quickly."

"Recognizing the beat doesn’t make The Eddy less moving, but it does keep an impeccably made series from being something more groundbreaking."

"The sessions are brilliant. But they don’t serve the slow, slight plot and for anyone whose interests lie more in the drama than the music, these extended interludes may well tip the balance into outright tedium."

"“The Eddy” finds a compelling rhythm in a melodic blend of genres — part family drama, part musical, part thriller — that, while occasionally plodding, crescendos with considerable emotional heft."

"The raggedly structured episodes run more than an hour apiece, mostly because the editors can’t live without the jazz, though audiences won’t be as patient."

"The Eddy manages to keep you invested while Elliot anchors the story. That is helped by thoughtful performances especially by Holland and Bekhti as well as the rest of the cast, some of whom are actual musicians."

"Fast-moving cool for jazz fans and not."
