Posted: 1/11/09 at 12:05amI was at the dress rehearsal, and the Jeremy Piven joke went over so much better then. I'm SO happy they aired the sketch, me and my friend were dying in the studio.

Actually, I didn't think it was fabulous, but I'm glad they did it. Almost died at the Piven reference!!!
And yes, most of America didn't get it.

The chandelier was pretty accurate if I do say so myself
No kidding! Whoever designed this sketch did their homework...everything looked pretty accurate to me. It looks like they chose their pieces to actually resemble the show--from the chandelier, which looked like the one used in the production, to Mark's costume, to Elphaba's, to Kate Monster...even down to using a white bowtie (NOT BLACK) on the Phantom's tuxedo. There are clearly a few Broadway fans at SNL. Nicely done!

Posted: 1/11/09 at 12:07amSo far this has been one of the better SNL episodes in a while. I'm a sucker for Penelope and that sketch definitely delivered.

This is my favorite SNL skit in a Looooong time, but I basicly love everything NPH does, and that broadway skit was hilarious

Loved it! I haven't laughed out loud at SNL for anything other than Tina Fey's Palin in a loooonnnnnnng time!
Only 1 thing ... they went with the racist dialogue and I was SURE we were going to hear a few bars of "Everyone's a little bit racist."

Posted: 1/11/09 at 12:16amI thought that sketch was pretty good, but as a whole the show just isn't that great. NPH is great, but I wish they just let him do his opening monologue by himself. And give him better material.

Posted: 1/11/09 at 12:16amawww, her voice is a tad bit annoying but she is totally adorable. did you see her reaction after she finished performing? she was jittering like, "omg did i really just perform on SNL?!?!"
#47re: Broadway Skit on SNL
Posted: 1/11/09 at 12:16amlol it's like super-blinged. I like her music but she seemed really nervous, or maybe that's just how she sounds and I never noticed before? Eh.

That sketch was such a theatrenerdgasm for me, I'm always excited when B'way gets to exists in other mediums (like today, my roomate was watching the movie Loser and the leads went to see Cabaret at 54, I flipped!) it makes me feel like we're not so closed off to the rest of the world as we sometimes think.
And Liza! LOL "Shhhhhhecks and the city syle. I'll buy you all the...non-alcoholic beer you can handle." "Oh good, I'm really thirsty." "Really? I'm thirstier!" 
"If artists were machines, then I'm just a different kind of machine...I'd probably be a toaster. Actually, I'd be a toaster oven because they're more versatile. And I like making grilled cheese" -Regina Spektor
"That's, like, twelve shows! ...Or seven." -Crazy SA Fangirl
"They say that just being relaxed is the most important thing [in acting]. I take that to another level, I think kinda like yawning and...like being partially asleep onstage is also good, but whatever." - Sherie Rene Scott
