I like what they’re doing here in theory. If you’re gonna do a jukebox, it makes a whole lot of sense to me that you would choose music already written to a story - I can think of some overwrought concept albums that blew my 16-year-old mind that deserve this treatment. In practice, though, a lot of this show is four guys sitting in a lifeboat and feels pretty long for its 90 minute runtime. Come on, eat someone already, I wanna go home!
