With regard to expectations, this TV biopic of New Edition exceeded those and so much more. From night 1 to night 3, there was a sense that this could go on forever, or at least a few more nights. If you were a New Edition fan growing up or love black musical history, this miniseries was for you. I honestly think that BET could have stretched it out to a full 13-episode series (1hr) like the ones on Netflix. The production was great and the musical choices were awesome because it had the REAL music unlike some of these other TV biopics (*cough-cough LIFETIME). Also this was one of the most authentic biopics to date because BET was able to get the real characters that were involved.In short, watch this miniseries. You will NOT be disappointed. No spoilers here, just go watch the movie! 10/10

Excellent! BET hit it out of the park!!! I have watched it 4 times and I continue to be even more impressed! BET has renewed my faith in them to tell the story of our culture! I love New Edition anyway for the music and now I feel like I know them as individuals and I love them more for sharing their story. The fact that these guys are still around and performing is amazing. It is so wonderful to see entertainers honored while they are still alive. It just makes it so much better. I am eagerly waiting for a new album and I was thrilled when I watched them get their star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame to hear Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis announce that they wanted to record a new album with the guys!!! This is going to be great!!Congratulations Rizz, Slick, Biv, Ron, JG and Bob, I love you all!!!!!!!!!!!! AND I must say, Rizz you are still my "Mack"....

BET has kicked off the year on a high. The production value and story telling at it's best, New Edition brings back memories for those who lived it, and bring new ones the new generation. Straight Out Compton set the tone. New Edition raised the bar. All the casting was spot on. All of the actors did a fantastic job in this movie. Everyone gave %100 to this project. The movie was able to fully engage in each band member's lives (with respect to late Whitney Houston) giving the audience time to nurture and care for everyone's story line. The scenes, feel and vibe were all breathtaking. Like Netflix's "Stranger Things", you will be sucked into the world and might end up watching the whole entire series. The New Edition Story is an instant classic. Can't wait to see what BET does next. Congrats to the network.

The New Edition Story was not a perfect TV show, but it was a perfect TV experience. It had just about every piece that a miniseries like that needs to have to make it feel weighty and worthwhile.It probably didn't hurt that the members of the group were producers on the miniseries. It has the ideal music group story line,It has the perfect group for this kind of thing,It has the neat little movie nerd tidbits in there. When It Was Over It felt like I'd been shoved out of a plane. I was 100 percent not expecting to feel that way about New Edition. Or any sort of way, really. It was right then that I realized how hard the show had worked to get to that point, and to draw out that specific response. It got me.I liked The New Edition Story a lot. Again: I didn't realize I felt that way until it was almost over — until it was almost too late, I suppose. But I guess that makes sense. And that might've even possibly been the point.
