The description on my TV just says "The spring season of shows"

Thanks for this thread, I had no idea this was going to be on!

Is this becoming a regular special? Because Good Vibrations was on last week---that would be awesome if every Saturday at 7, they went backstage of a different show.

I've been wondering what Harvey was like in FIDLER, and from what they showed, he doesn't look bad at all!

emcee and i are watching it now. our favorite quote: drew lachey on rent: "it really has a social conscience." umm, thanks for that amazingly profound statement.

Oh good you're watching! I was screaming at her through Instant Messanger to go watch. I was so upset that she wasn't getting them. :)

So...if we're not in NYC we're unable to watch?

[Matt_G]

Posted: 3/5/05 at 7:50pm

I think it is only airing here in New York.

[Matt_G]

Posted: 3/5/05 at 7:54pm

Oh my. LIGHT AT THE PIAZZA footage. This makes Matt VERY happy to see.

Bummer. If it does happen to air here on the lowly west coast, and a fellow left coaster catches it, could you please please let us(me) know?
Thanks

and if anyone who hasn't seen Shoshana yet just saw that clip, you'll know why I dislike her so much. What was she doing, leading the marching band while singing?

It was actually a very well-put together special, and made even the worst of shows look decent. However, bad choice to end the show with Shoshana Bean.....wow....she sounded absolutely terrible in DEFYING GRAVITY.

[hedwig14]

Posted: 3/5/05 at 7:58pm

What? What happened???
I hate living here.



EDIT: Oh, just Shoshana singing badly. Updated On: 3/5/05 at 07:58 PM

Kudos and thanks to ABC for airing a great show with some terrific (and not so good) clips of musicals and also some great new dramas opening up this Spring. Thank You what a wonderful show!
