[@jaylene.turner6524]

In real life, that’s like the late Levi Stubbs. He was the lead singer of the Four Tops. Levi was given many opportunities to be a solo star,but he wanted the rest of the group to be at his side at all times. They stayed together for 44 years until the members started to pass away. Only one member is left today. Just amazing.😭

I remember not watching this when it first came out but then watching the first half hour episode and absolutely loved the characters and humor. I went back to this at some time after watching some of the first season of the show. It’s crazy how this was 13 years ago. Time truly flies.

[@mandii91gates]

This first episode didn't have much of the sound effects. They came after

[@unkindled6410]

I guess they were trying to both experiment a diferent style and also set q more "serious tone" for the origin story episode of them actually working hard for everything. But later just went to thr same style of the creators series. ​@@mandii91gates

It was super fun and I immediately fell in love with the show. Then came the episode where Jo and Kendall broke up and they sang the "Worldwide" song. After that I knew that Im gonna love this band.
