A Close-Up on SWINGTOWN

Tonight marks the premiere of CBS’s new 70’s drama SWINGTOWN. Early reviews are positive, but what matters is what YOU think of the show. So plan on tuning in tonight at 10pm on CBS. And if you want to learn a little more about the show before hitting that sacred ‘record’ button on the remote, here’s a a rundown and a few SWINGTOWN clips for you to check out.

What’s it all about….
After moving to an upscale lakeside Chicago suburb in July of 1976, Susan and Bruce Miller must confront temptation in the form of their provocative new neighbors, Tom and Trina Decker, while not abandoning their old friends Janet and Roger Thompson. As the adult couples evaluate whether to embrace or avoid newfound personal freedoms, the curious Miller and Thompson children begin to discover and assert their own morality and sexual identities as they come of age in a world on the precipice of change. In a shifting social climate – defined by its music, fashion and style – everyone in SWINGTOWN is confronted with personal choices, experimentation and attitudes.

The following video clips contain spoilers for the premiere SWINGTOWN. If you watch you will be spoiled…I’m just letting you know.

I was a child of the 70’s, albeit the late 70’s. I’m not usually enticed by period shows, but this one looks really well done and it’s certainly peaked by interest. Let me know if you plan on watching and leave a comment letting me know what you think after it airs.
