While it might seem that boy bands have reached their highest fame now, Take That had created an unbelievable fan base long ago.However, they did not always walk a smooth road. While the band initially consisted of Gary Barlow, Howard Donald, Mark Owen, Jason Orange, and Robbie Williams, only the first three members are still part of the band now. How the band was formed, rose to fame, fell apart, and came together again are all explored in Netflix's new documentary, Take That, titled after the band itself.Netflix's new documentary Take ThatDrama was and is perhaps still present in the lives of Take That members. We say that because while the band has 12 UK number ones and has sold over 45 million records worldwide, something caused the band to come apart at one point. Nigel Martin-Smith, who later became the band's manager, wanted to create a boy band and started looking for talented young male musicians in 1989. By 1990, he had found all five men who would become one of Britain's most famous bands.

The documentary has three episodes, and it gives us a full breakdown on how the band was formed, how it worked, how it became so popular, and how it split apart in 1996, only to reunite in 2006.Take That uses archival footage and interviews with Gary Barlow, Howard Donald, and Mark Owen to tell us everything about the band. While Orange and Williams are no longer part of the band, the documentary still includes interviews with them from years ago to help us understand them better. While Williams left the band in 1995 and the band split up in 1996, no one seems to have taken the breakup harder than Gary. As the documentary shows us, Gary felt that he worked harder than others and that the band stood on his talents, which were apparently wasted by the band's breakup.Gary, Howard, Mark, and Jason reunited in 2006, but Jason left in 2014, and now only the first three are part of the band. If you want to see what went down behind the band's success, breakup, and eventual reunion, you'll have to watch the three-part documentary on Netflix.
