I even liked the character. His vocal inflection, though, for some reason irked me and got monotonous.

"It's hot and it's monotonous."

I can see that. I just liked it anyway.

I stand corrected, you are as vapid as they say.

I looooved this character. You may be right about his inflection, but I didn't mind it at all. I was head over heels for this guy. He's just SO endearing, so dorky...how can you NOT love him?

NO, no, HOT monotony would be fine.

But yes, he was totally endearing and adorable in that "you're such a loser and I love you because I'm a loser too!" kind of way.

Yes, exactly. A poster boy for losers who love to sit in darkened rooms and listen to old cast recordings (which I've done time and again)

"That said, I haven't posted a review on here in ages (with the exception of when I saw Doyle's production of Company) for a lot of reasons that it would be unnecessary to go into."

Well, that's unfortunate and incomprehensible. It's not like a review is really a problem.

I also like the idea that all of these performances, and staging elements are all in his head. He never saw the show, this is just what he has pieced together from his study. None of it represtents anything other than his fears and hopes.

On the same note, I really like that he literally goes "into" it at the end. It's kind of odd at first to see a show happening in this guy's living room, but it really works; it's not "let me take you back in time," it's "let me show you why this is great."
