I expect better from Edward Burns. The writing is mediocre. They are apparently unaware that there are pedantic old folks who are still alive who remember 1962-63 and they take enormous liberties with hair styles, clothing and music. Very sloppy.
They get the men right for the most part but there were NO GUYS wearing shoulder length hair in NYC then and certainly no hoodlums- "hey Mary- nice hair" would have been the least of it. The skirts are too short and colorful paisley prints were 4-5 years in the offing.
The Doors and Los Bravos (awesome song Black is Black) also a few years away. Nobody was "hanging out" in 1963. It's all too distracting from what had the potential to be a good show.
