Four best friends from Minnesota trade in their hockey sticks and high-school life for the opportunity of a lifetime: pursue pop music stardom in Los Angeles as a boy band. Discovered as a solo singer, Kendall has no interest in leaving his Midwest life behind, so he agrees to take part in "pop group" training in exchange for the record company allowing his three buddies -- James, Logan and Carlos -- a chance to make it with him as a group. They live in a swanky housing development, but the boys soon find life in Hollywood is not all about the parties and girls, and if they are to make it in the big time, it will only come from hard work, dedication -- and the support of one another.

B+
This Monkees for a new generation is full of charm and vitality, but there's not quite enough music here; these guys, who perform original material and not covers, may need their own Neil Diamond or Carole King to help build a memorable playlist.

[Big Time Rush] was developed with Sony Music specifically to move units. At the same time, there is a situation comedy here, hyperactive and mostly charming, to which the music is incidental. Go to Full Review Brian Lowry Variety 12/18/2019
To an adult, though, watching [Big Time Rush] rush by felt more like what happens the day after a night of heavy drinking. Go to Full Review Emily Ashby Common Sense Media 12/19/2019
3/5
At a time when reality series like American Idol promise to turn average Joes into overnight stars, the idea of a series based on the aftermath of a person's "discovery" is an enticing one -- even if it is fictitious. Go to Full Review Read all reviews
