This is really great. It opens with a 7 minute montage/mashup of musical performances (available for free on YouTube if you don't have Peacock) that would get five stars from me on its own. It is so well balanced every way that I wanted it to be: across genres, through each era, musical guests versus musical sketches. Even the interview participants represent crew members, cast members, and musical guests over the years. I would buy this on Blu-ray if they'd let me.
