Rockville CA is a web original from Josh Schwartz (creator of Gossip Girl, Chuck and The O.C.). The show is a contemporary, music-themed romantic comedy set in a fictional rock club in Los Angeles. Each episode (20 in total) will feature music and live music performances from a different artist as well as green room interview with the bands. Artists include The Kooks, Kaiser Chiefs, Lykke Li and Phantom Planet.

I have a love/hate relationship with the show. I love the premise, and I like being exposed to some new music (while also seeing some of my favorites in a cool setting). Also, the sound quality of the live performances is WAY better than random youtube live videos so I love that since I love live music.

However, some of the episodes just have really, really bad acting or ridiculous scripts...definitely not up to the consistent quality of other Josh Schwartz stuff. However, I usually watch them all, because even if it's a downer episode (they are about 50/50 IMO), it only wastes a few minutes of my day.

I did really like the most recent episode with Earlimart, they're one of my favorites and they sounded awesome, especially on "Song For," which I have the video clip for here.

So yeah, more consistency would be nice, but it's a promising start and I hope it stays.
