Absolutely awful.  The premise of two ballet companies switching star dancers and choreographers is  ridiculous.  The idea that a Koch like billionaire is behind this is interesting but very heavily over written.  As is the French ballerina role. And I know I'm nit picking but  I've never, in over 50 years of ballet going seen in person, on film or video a choreographer working while wearing head phones.

There is only one reason I will watch other episodes and that is to spot beloved New York City Ballet dancers in minor roles (Tiler Peck was in the first) and with the hope that there will be more dancing and music.

Sorry to hear about your review. I love dancers, and I love the idea of them getting a good story. Their special talents deserve more eyes.
