Are there any Broadway musicals that you feel are worthy of all of their hype?

Mine:
Les Miserables
Rent and Wicked (to an extent)


If Percy Blakeney were in Les Mis....

Percy: Sink me! If it isn't Javvurt!
Javert: Zsah-vair, it's pronounced Zsah-vair.
Pecry: But it's spelled J-A-V-E-R-T Javvurt.
Javert: Repeat after me Zsah...Zsah....
Percy: Oh! Zsa-Zsa! Like the Gabor sister! Well I personally have always prefered Eva.
Javert: (Looks for gun)

Tough question. I'd have to agree with Les Mis. That was really the only show I've seen AFTER all the hype began and loved it just as much as all the ravers.

Les Miserables was my first thought. It's the only show I think really deserves it.

Wicked, saw it before it was a hit.
Drowsy, saw it when people were like "uhhhhh"
