ITV has added the acclaimed drama Daisy Jones & the Six to ITVX, giving viewers in the UK free access to all 10 episodes of the series, which first premiered in 2023. The show is based on Taylor Jenkins Reid’s bestselling novel and follows the rise and fall of a fictional 1970s rock band whose story is loosely inspired by Fleetwood Mac. Set against the backdrop of fame, music, and tension within the group, the series centres on the relationship between lead singer Daisy Jones and band frontman Billy Dunne, played by Riley Keough and Sam Claflin.
The cast also includes Camila Morrone, Suki Waterhouse, Josh Whitehouse and Timothy Olyphant. Since its original release on Prime Video, the series has attracted strong praise from viewers, with many describing it as a standout adaptation that improves on the source material. Fans have highlighted the performances, soundtrack, costumes and period setting as major strengths, alongside the emotional pull of the band’s story and the chemistry between the characters.
The official synopsis says that in 1977, Daisy Jones and The Six were at the height of their success, having risen from obscurity to become a major force in music before suddenly breaking up after a sold-out show at Soldier Field. Decades later, the band members come together to reveal the truth behind what happened, adding a documentary-style frame to the drama.
Audience reaction has been especially positive, with many viewers calling the soundtrack addictive and the show hard to stop watching once started. Some have said the series delivers a powerful mix of music and drama, while others praised it as one of the best book adaptations they have seen. The emotional storytelling, layered characters and retro atmosphere have helped the show build a loyal fanbase.
Although there is no confirmed second season, there has been ongoing interest in the possibility of more Daisy Jones & the Six. Sam Claflin, Riley Keough and author Taylor Jenkins Reid have all publicly discussed ideas for continuing the story, including the possibility of a film, a feature-length episode or a Christmas special. Claflin has said the team has talked about potential follow-up concepts, but stressed that any decision rests with the people in charge. For now, the series remains a one-season drama, but its arrival on ITVX is likely to introduce it to a new audience and renew interest in its future.
