The Best Moments From Every Episode of ‘Daisy Jones & The Six’

Written by on March 29, 2023

The world’s biggest rock band to never exist finally came to life this spring, thanks to a gorgeous 10-part Amazon Prime Video mockumentary filled with yearning, angst and lots of sex, drugs and rock n’ roll. After four years of existing solely in the minds of enchanted readers since Taylor Jenkins Reid’s best-selling novel of the same name was published in 2019, Daisy Jones and The Six at last gave not only a visual, but a crystal clear sound, to the most deliciously dramatic bunch of musicians since Fleetwood Mac (one of the book’s core inspirations, naturally).

Released a few episodes at a time throughout the month of March alongside an official album, Daisy Jones stars Riley Keough as the titular musical powerhouse alongside Sam Claflin as Billy Dunne, the gruff frontman of Pittsburgh amateur rockers-turned-global sensations, The Six. Filling out the cast are Camila Morrone as Camila Alvarez (Billy’s devoted wife), Suki Waterhouse as Six keyboardist Karen Sirko, Will Harrison as guitarist Graham Dunne, Josh Whitehouse as bassist Eddie Roundtree and Sebastian Chacon as drummer Warren Rojas.

At the heart of the book and show is Daisy’s relationship with Billy: cosmic, destructive, euphoric and heartbreaking to watch through the eyes of Camila, who sticks by her husband through the worst of it. It’s constantly a war between the lure of soulmates and the necessity of true love, a theme that refracts in different ways through the side stories of characters such as Karen, Graham and disco singer Simone Jackson (Nabiyah Be), all of whom must choose between love and fame at some point.

Though Daisy Jones is full of great moments, Billboard has narrowed down the most meaningful ones from each of the 10 episodes. See them in order below, but be warned that if you haven’t watched the series yet, spoilers are ahead!
