Critics have savaged new Netflix series Building The Band, describing it as “spectacularly misjudged,” “painfully unfunny,” and “a chaotic mess,” but many agreed on one thing: Liam Payne is “the best thing” about it.
The reality series, which landed on the streaming platform today (July 9), was filmed before Payne’s shock death last October aged 31, when he fell from the third floor of a hotel balcony in Argentina. It features the former One Direction star in a key mentoring role.
