I think he's long overdue for a comeback!

WHY?????
That is what happens after you view his turn in J/H. Truth be told, his Confrontation was the only salvageable part of an otherwise dreary & comical performance.

He and Suzanne Somers are in talks to do WHO'S AFRAID OF VIRGINIA WOOLF, directed by Francesca Zambello.

Posted: 6/18/15 at 5:59pmI've always thought he was the right Hyde for that production- it wasn't the ultimate version of the material, nor the darkest nor the most serious. But Hasselhoff sings well, has charisma and looked and acted like a comic book hero and villain in the two roles. Combine that with the one-liners Hyde got as he offed his victims, and he fit the material like hand in glove. The material just didn't fit the show's ultimate intention.

Cuccioli was the best
The worst was Maroulis in the recent revival.

I would be first in line to see that. Seriously. It would be a "masterpiece" of epic proportions.
It'd be better than a Mandy Patinkin Tevye.

I'd go see that in a flash, too. That is what I would call "a performance for the ages" (a quote from another thread).

Hasselhoff! ouch I just tore an eye muscle rolling my eyes.
I was at the final performance of Jekyll & Hyde AND I've seen the DVD they filmed of him in the role. I believe it is still available...so before you make that wish please watch.
