I think she looks more like Lily St. Regis than Hannigan.
If we're being analytical, how much difference is there between Lily and Miss H?

This is gonna be AMAZING. Best casting ever. And yes she has mass appeal and a huge following. and for the record I think Katie Finnerin was amazing.
I think that she looks fantastic and has nice sex appeal in it. What isn't helping her is that she is playing another character with a whistle, which will draw similarities to GLEE.

I remember in watching an interview, the reporter mentioned the similarities of Sue and Hannigan. But she differed them in saying how Sue was very precise and out together in her scheming, whereas Hannigan as sloppy and drunk amongst other aspects. It seems to me that she is (thankfully) trying to distinguish her Hannigan from Sue.
No one will ever be as good as Dotty Loudon.
Jane looks terrific! Very sexy actually. Her "Little Girls" is terrific, too. She's going to be wonderful!
"If we're being analytical, how much difference is there between Lily and Miss H?"
Little to none. Rooster has banged them both.
He banged his sister?
I always got the sense that Hannigan was jealous of Lily and vied for her brothers attention. It always skeeved me out, especially Carol Burnett shaking her rack at her brother. Ewwww.
"GLEE was a phenom and Jane the breakout Lesbian star of the first season. I think America knows her."
So because it WAS a phenom that means she'll sell tickets today? Was there another lesbian star on the first season who didn't breakout? Does that mean all the lesbians will come out of their woodshops to see ANNIE?
Pretty sure that wasn't a thing until second season.

The thing is it will be hard to tell if Jane is actually helping to boost numbers, as her dates coincide with the beginning of the summer tourist season when a large majority of shows tend to see increases anyway. Yes, I know not all shows always benefit from that, but I do feel that Annie, with or without Jane Lynch, will see some boost at the box office as the summer season draws upon us.
