* NonSingingVoice: The Adult Zeke in the framing scenes is played by Daveed Diggs but his vocals are dubbed by Music/{{Nas}}. A strange example as Diggs is a very skilled rapper in his own right.

* TroubledProduction: The show went massively over-budget due to its DevelopmentHell, its music and dance scenes, the cost of licensing its NothingButHits soundtrack, and Creator/BazLuhrmann's inexperience working in television, such that it wound up costing $120 million and getting nicknamed "The Shut Down". This was a big part of why, despite widespread acclaim, it became the first show that Creator/{{Netflix}} ever canceled after just one season.

"Modest Success" is far away from being a Box Office Bomb, and most of the actors from the main cast are from three to five years oldfer than their characters, which is a huge gap when they're supposed to be teenagers


* BoxOfficeBomb: The series is reported to have had a budget [[http://deadline.com/2016/10/the-get-down-costs-rise-netlfix-baz-luhrmann-1201837874/ approaching $200 million dollars]], making it one of if not '''the''' most expensive TV show(s) ever made, and though it's impossible to tell how much a show is viewed on Netflix globally, the show does appear to be only a modest success audience-wise.
* DawsonCasting: Downplayed and averted. All of the actors and actresses in the show are at the age of their characters, or they're pretty damn close.
