Anyone else bored to death of the endless Hamilton articles on here? I get it, we have no theatre happening at the moment, but give us a break already.

No, because I just scroll past. It's gonna be a lot of Hamilton for a while.
Don’t read them, and you won’t be bored.
You know what bores me? Unnecessary threads.
I get if you're bored that there's so much of it just in the percentage of headlines that you can't avoid reading even that part, but you can always choose to give your clicks to the non-Hamilton articles if you feel like doing something productive. BWW knows the ad revenue and clicks are going to come on the wave of the Disney+ release and are acting accordingly.

Oh I’m sorry. Did you really want me to reply with something like “get over it and learn to scroll past posts that you don’t want to open on a message board that nobody is forcing you to visit?”
Because I can go more in depth with that if you need something more “scintillating”.

It does seem like a bit much. But this will pass.
Yes it's a lot....no different here then any other theater site. Its something to be excited about and about the only thing to be looking forward to. I dont read 80% of what has been posted - so I cant be bored by what I don't read. They have SOMETHING to wrote about, good for them. Hard to stay relevant about a field that's at a standstill.
They are all over TV also. Especially ABC (Of course). And there are ads on a lot of other pages also. Even saw a commercial during the BET Awards on CBS. It is a bit much.

What about the endless hype on ABC-TV?

You miss the point my love, there is NOTHING on here to read except Hamilton posts.
Disney owns ABC so they’re advertising. They paid more money for this than anyone ever, so I’m confused why people are surprised by this.

Do you remember the 2015/2016 season, when there were like a dozen threads about Hamilton everyday on the first page of BroadwayBoard? The "movie" will bring new fans so we'll probably have loads of Hamilton threads in the near future. But that too will pass, and then we'll be free to go back creating a new thread every day about when will Broadway reopen.

I will give this site a miss for 2 weeks and hope when I return, something else is being discussed in their articles rather than ‘Lin reveals what socks he wore on May 15th to the theatre for the evening performance of Hamilton’

Thank you, Dolly80., That was funny!
I mean, there is nothing else to promote right now, so I think that's why it's all over the place. Can't really blame them.
Exactly. It's like summer 2015 all over again, but I don't mind. With a highly anticipated Disney+ release tomorrow, one could say we are approaching the eye of the hurricane. I'm not blaming anyone for nonstop Hamiltonian coverage either.

Did y’all miss this post? And also... same. I feel like I’m on a different site than you. Besides the embedded commercial on nearly every page that I can easily scroll past, I’ve seen the normal amount of articles about non-Hamilton things. That’s especially impressive given there’s no live theatre happening anywhere in the world right now.

Thank you! Sometimes I feel like I'm taking crazy pills on here.
Clearly people are feeling a little stir-crazy even online and need to be dramatic somewhere.
