Sadly misses the mark for me
I really wanted to like this, given the talent and premise. Unfortunately the storylines are disjointed and overly wrought. The music just doesn’t fit the genre or timeframe. Characters never develop fully or even really become likable. Season finale was a letdown. My takeaway is that it’s more of an ego project for Jingle Jared and Pooh Bear than a truly inspired drama. Production on some epis is fantastic and I really liked the live performance bonus. Strip away the overproduction and those songs are pretty good.

More reviews of Bear and a Banjo
If you make it passed the first few minutes of baby dance, the 3rd episode...I think you can handle anything. Or you might need mental check up. :) Love Dennis Quaid, which is why I started listening, but I'm sorry...I can't handle this at all. And I love music stories!Read full review »

Wow what a fun 2nd episode! Makes me wonder if this stuff actually happened in history. Can’t wait for more episodes 🐻🐻🐻

I really can’t decide. It feels like a throwback radio drama, but it’s trying to be more serious than melodrama. That and the music references being too far fetched for the period it keeps me from buying in to the story. I really wanted to like it, but two episodes were enough.
