So did I. They're getting so lame (moreso than they already were) and the numbers are dwindling!
Were they this lame when we were all obsessed with them?
They used to be hilarious. Well the one a couple weeks ago about Collins being a cannibal was pretty funny
I think they were always pretty lame, but the novelty has worn off somewhat. The truth or dare touch in this week's bunch is a little new.
The whole "post anonymously if..." thing? haha.

Forbidden Broadway is so much fun, I love the Rent ones- the guy playing Anthony playing Mark is sooooo funny! It made me fall out of my chair laughing.

Rentsecrets...most of the time I don't even bother. And when I do, I regret it and get mental images irrevocably stamped onto my brain.
...I'm in a melodramatic mood- the "anonymous" back and forth thing just pisses me off.

I still don't understand why that certain topic is treated as such a taboo. It's probably not the best idea to discuss it here considering the age of some posters/viewers, but hasn't every single female at least tried it once in her life?
Like, why it's not something people talk about in general, or why the secret is explicitly saying to be anonymous about it?
Who is the guy in the first secret?

Seasons of Hype was always my personal favorite...mainly because it was true...

Well, both, I guess. I don't expect people to talk about any sexually-related topics openly, but it's such a double standard down gender lines.
I think the guy is Mark from the German cast.
The thing I discovered about Forbidden Broadway, is that the sketches are funniest when they're of a show you really love; because you get the jokes, and if what they say is true (which it very often is) you laugh so much more; it's not really mean-spirited. It's so much funnier, because it's not offensive, it's a hearty joke on something you love.
ETA -- I think guys talk about it more on like... grounds of machismo. Or something. heh.
I agree, Lexi. It's just weird that any mention of that topic is automatically so eyebrow-raising, and there's defintiely a gender bias involved.

My friends and I talk about it all the time- but to each their own.
And Em I totally agree with you about FB, if you don't know the show it's just not that great, and when you do you should take it all in fun, because that's what it is .
I saw one production of it, not in NYC, but it was great. I have the songs parodying some of my favorite shows, though.

Probably not the best time to post this icon in particular, but bad Chess icons are quite awesome (I was going to say "are love," but stopped, whew!):

I do have to say that I prefer the one with the heart around Adam's face with "Freddie" superimposed.
They don't get that that's not what he meant when he said "massage parlours," do they?
I only see one on that link, Lexi.

Apparently not.
The song itself is so cheesy, but the obvious sexual overtones make me laugh and are clever in their own way.
I know -- I was referring to an icon I reposted here a while ago. Ashley will remember -- we had quite a laugh over it.
HA.

haha. He looks like a cartoon there. It's wierd.

Again, I'm tempted to use it, at least on LJ, but that means I'd have to credit the creator or she'll "eat my babies" or some such thing.
He does look like a cartoon.
Broadway Legend Joined: 12/31/69
They probably used the "cartoon" effect on their image program.
Speaking of which -- if Adam ends up doing cartoons, I think I'll cry. I don't believe that all cartoons are bad or below me by any means whatsoever, but Adam doesn't belong in a voiceover studio.
People on LJ are insane about crediting those icons. It's a little scary.
