Crazy Ex-Girlfriend - anyone watch? — Page 3

YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I've been so friggin'busy with "life" I just found this out!!!!! Now let's get those Emmy nominations and votes going!!! With all the "Bad News" of the day, this news made me smile!

CEG for Series 2!! Yes!! The songs and videos are all so different and funny; and creative too. Like "Group Hang, It's A Group Hang" and Rebecca is dressed as Xena Princess Warrior! Rachel Bloom is just too much! The whole White Hot White Josh and "Old Gay " Daryl court and spark...and the dialogue about the "manhole" being the "vagina"..way too funny! Just watch.

Last night's episode was my favorite of the season so far. I love how flawed and real Rebecca is, and it makes the show both entertaining and lifelike. I also am a big fan of the little blips at the end of the episodes where they reenact a joke of the night. (Vampire Weekend, Apologize to some Ho's, this week's Alien Play - with the standing O and the Dr. screaming "Werk!"

I'm really enjoying this show, all the broadway talent on display is really excellent, but I noticed that Santino Fontana seemed less than enthusiastic about the show during the interview that was posted on Broadway.com today. Does anyone know what's up with that? He doesn't participate in the live tweeting sessions for the show, which I just assumed was due to his hectic schedule, but something about this interview made me think something else was up. After all he seemed really excited to talk about Shades of Blue, which is a far inferior show, in my opinion. It would be a shame if he's not happy with Crazy Ex-Girlfriend because he's so great in it!

I just watched the show from tonight and thought is was another great example of CEG veering off toward new plots and twists coming for Season 2. Deeper character development and the songs! How can you forget "I Gave You A UTI" and Rebecca's sex lament song?

I don't get how some people rave and fantasize about Live! this and Live! Hairspray. Eagerly, anticipating their dream casts and fawning over bloated productions; then you have this "little show that could" with a great cast, song and dance, and original music from ballads to rap, that's a truly entertaining change on weekly television.

Next week's season finale not only has Lea Salonga but it looks like it's full of big production numbers. I'm glad it's coming back next year.

Steve C, not sure if you heard this interview with Rachel from Monday--it aired on CBC Radio here in Canada. It actually covered stuff I hadn't heard in all the past samey-interviews. I was impressed that Rachel Bloom quoted Sondheim.

Eric (and everyone)

I just listened to the CBC interview with Rachel Bloom and thanks so much! Everyone should take a minute and listen; she is so smart and really knows musical theater history. I'd love to see her live. She's been in Chicago, references Company and Sondheim, and I totally agree with her take on the "Girl Crush" cutesy stuff. (and the Disney princess song is too, too dynamite).

If I wasn't gay I'd be her future crazy ex boyfriend!

Let's hope it gets tons of Emmy nominations and awards! I think they'll be announced next month.

Thx again to my Canadian BFF; keep me posted! SC

Rachel and Aline and Adam are performing "Crazy Ex-Girlfriend: A Musical Revue" at the NYC Vulture Festival this Saturday and I AM SO FREAKING EXCITED!!

Dude, I am so bummed by the way the season ended. Really wish it had ended two episodes before, with Rachel and Greg in the bar.

Heads Up for Rachel and CEG fans!

1) Rachel is on Andy Cohen tonight at 11pm.

2) She's in town for Vulture fest this weekend that I'm so bummed out b/c it's sold out. The "CEG in person" show should be a lot of fun.

3) CW announced their fall schedule and Crazy is being moved to Friday night at 9:00pm. I actually think it might find a whole new audience there. Even with less than stellar ratings, let's face it, it was up against The Voice, Big Bang, Dancing Stars, Bachelor, Gotham...and it still is coming back. Even with Supergirl taking over on Monday nights, Rachel and Aline (and Adam) are the real Super Girls.

Hey liotte, Thanks!

I was hoping you or someone would let us know how the show was! (I just forgot to ask) It sounds like you had a ball. It's great they were able to talk and perform east.

Btw, "Where's the Bathroom?" is one of my favorites...

"When did you stop wearing makeup? Are you sure that you're not gay?"

"By the way you're looking healthy, and by healthy I mean CHUNKY!"

This show is so d@mn funny! And I love Tovah Feldshuh and I hope, hope, hope they bring her back.

Thx again for the info and review.

Hiya Clumsy! Now, tell a friend about how good CEG is (and not to vote for Trump)

People just need to see it to like it. But, you're right, I'm glad CW got it from CBS...CW is very high on it still. Let's see what happens at the Emmy Awards! I'm really hoping it gets the Emmys it was nominated for.

(I love David's White Josh too)!

Hi Taryn, Yay! Enjoy the 1st season again; I am too. Also I really wanted to see Mr. Rosewater b/c I love Howard Ashman's beautiful work; and then I saw Santino was in it and got rave reviews! (He saved "Cinderella" for me; I hated the new book).

CEG will be a hoot seeing how they will pick up the story...I can't wait until October. Btw, I looked for this thread to continue posting in it. Where did you find it?
