Saying that Young Frankenstein is the best musical of the season is like saying that From Justin to Kelly is a watchable movie! I feel like I've just been Punked

Dear "Audiences" (note the quotes), Please stay away from Broadway. You're killing it.

Dear Broadway.com, Please stop your crappy awards. They suck. And change your Tony data on Alan Menken. He DID NOT win Best Score in '94. Do you really think the jackass tourists that go on your site give a rat's ass that who won? (By the way, Sondheim did.) Change it or I'll e-mail you for a third time. It won't be as nice this time either.
Best, JV92
This is very sad. I mean, at least Jonathan Groff (last year's winner for Best Actor for these "awards"...or was he?) was actually good in his show. And they had to give Grease Frightin' something, huh? They just HAD TOO? Huh? Is that it? At least Cookie Cutter Boy and Cookie Cutter Girl didn't win. The category I'd say Grease should have won for is-
Young Frankenstein is a good musical. Not the best, but I think it deserved the Best Musical award. I thought Megan was hilarious, too. Now, I do like Roger Bart, but that's the only one where I am just, well, a little befuddled. But everyone stop hatin' on Young Frankenstein so much. I'm glad it won those. This is definitely a weird awards season, though. I am excited for the Tonys.
the onlyt thing i really disagree on is Grease & best male replacement. i really feel blake bashoff should have got it for spring awakening, he is just soo amazing. him or matt doyle.
The fact that Favorite On-Stage Pair didn't go to Mary Testa and Jackie Hoffman is absurd.
And yes, they were nominated.

Wow... just wow. I knew there were gonna be some offbeat winners but... wow. At least the "audience" was smart enough to pick August, South Pacific and LuPone.

We should have a voting thing here. At least with us, the shows we know SHOULD win will actually win. It won't be just teenybopper stuff.

These ridiculous awards aren't even worth getting upset about. They have absolutely don't count for anything.

I'm one of the few people here who really did like Young Frankenstein, but BEST? really? I don't know about that.
