Another synopsis that's worded badly. I think they meant to say something like "An account of the life of EP during the early years of his career."
The vocal impersonator is pretty good. MS does the moves and a bit of the facial expressions pretty well too.
The last 3 episodes (or perhaps just 1) are difficult to follow, where all 3 bandmates are having basically the same waking nightmare about having crashed their car and died, apparently from a close call with some donkeys. Also hard to follow: E's mom says his gf (KW) is getting married (not to him), but then we see E & gf together again, or is that part of the waking nightmare?
The show ends with a minor event (bandmate is relieved of manager duties, but it's not Col. Parker stepping in), which makes me think they did not plan the series to end after 13 eps.
I don't feel I learned much about EP, and I'd really rather hear his own singing.
