There & Back: Ashley Parker Angel (2006)
Show review
As a 40 year old Mom with teen-aged boys, I'm not really into "pop music" but what I am into is seeing someone work hard to support themselves and their family. Therefore, I am rooting wholeheartedly for Ashley Parker Angel. He is a great example of what can come from hard work and dedication and I applaud him for striving to find his own voice in the aftermath of a "boy band" stigma. His new music sounds terrific and the fact that much of his CD is written by him shows even more of his character. I found I had a real love-hate relationship with this show; I love that he is so dedicated to his music and his family. His easy-going nature was simply endearing. Tiffany, however, could have been less self-centered at times and more supportive--she didn't come across real well but I am willing to give her the benefit of the doubt and chalk it up to editing in hopes that she was much less shallow off screen than she was on. That being said, he has a great support system around him from Tiffany's Mom (who is nothing short of amazingly supportive and was doing much of what Tiffany should have been doing--again could have just been edited that way), his manager, record company and former band mate. If you have a chance to catch this show in re-runs...do yourself a favor and watch. This is a young man fighting against not only stereotype, but also being a young father (without having the advantages of one himself) and trying to make life better for himself and everyone around him. I am happily going to be buying his CD and wish him all the best in all things. Ashley is an example of responsibility and fortitude. Well done.
