In the spirit of Toxic Avenger, Bat Boy, Zombie Prom

Very funny/highly enjoyable (and may had to do with the casting too)

Amber Ruffin, who is incredible, co-created the show along with Kevin and David. It premieres next February.

Unfortunately, I'm not home to look for the program, but what I "remember": Jaquel Spivey , Lesli Margherita , Jose Llana , Kevin Del Aguila--and i think two others-- they had GREAT voices and comic timing and really wowed me but who were "new" to me (sorry)

I doubt there will be a soft shoe, though.
