I think we need a TV movie of MOST HAPPY FELLA.
Yes. With Kelli O'Hara.

One. More. Thing.
Depp was nowhere near as good as that year's nominees. He got up in funny make up again and was autotuned.
The Music Man and Bye Bye Birdie ended that little CBS musicals experiement.

Oh please...he was better than that honey glazed ham that was that year's winner.
Clooney was terrific, and I loved that movie. Jones was dour in a horribly dour picture. I could imagine thinking Mortensen deserved it.
Depp was wonderful in the movie...which I also thought was terrific. The autotuning doesn't really bother me. Hell, Deborah Kerr was completely dubbed in THE KING AND I, and I wouldn't have minded her winning that year.

My vote was Audra...with Megan Mullaley as Cleo.
Works for me, too. Though I usually imagine myself playing Cleo, but what gay man doesn't?
I know how it is. Don't tell me, I know how it is...

I'm perfectly fine disagreeing. Civilly. I'm secure enough with myself to admit when you're wrong. (I kid...I kid!)
You, Cleo, Matt? I woulda thought the bitch of a sister.

Jennifer Holliday won the Tony for Dreamgirls.
She also won the Grammy that year for the Dreamgirls cast album (Best R&B Female Vocalist---and I believe this may be the only time in history when a singer has won a Grammy for a cast album performance, but I may be wrong)
Jennifer Hudson won an Oscar for Dreamgirls.
So we need a TV "Effie" to win an Emmy, and you will have your "proper" EGOT.

Posted: 6/19/12 at 6:12pmWell RobbieJ, if you played Cleo, I'd definitely be the bitchy sister-in-law. Causing all this trouble trouble trouble trouble trouble trouble...

Posted: 6/19/12 at 7:29pmI agree wholeheartedly with RobbieJ's comments on Daniel Day Lewis. The man makes me cringe. I'm not sure who should have won the Oscar that year, but I will never understand why people go gaga for this man. Quiet, subtle, understated performances are really the tricky feat to achieve - what DDL does is just...dreadful.
