I have seen none of Fallin's work that I haven't liked.  He is an exceptional talent.

Who knew that Mean Girls takes place in a nursing home?

...if you hadn't said that was Mean Girls, I would not have recognized it.

Imelda Marcos and a boyish Kathy Bates are in Mean Girls?

RE: Saint Joan

Am I crazy or did Condola never wear purple lipstick at any point in that show? Also, bug eyes.

RE: Mean Girls

Barrett is the only one who is somewhat recognizable. Has Fallin ever seen Grey Henson or Taylor? Sheesh.

The Katrina Lenk one is truly one of the worst things I’ve ever seen being passed as art.

I absolutely lost it at this comment, and I'll never be able to unsee Kathy Bates in this one.

Every time this thread resurfaces, I get a little knot in my stomach.

I DON'T WANT to rant about what a complete hack I think Fallin is, and yet people keep reviving this thread, and tempting me with comments I agree with, and want to expound upon, and posting examples of his "art" (I just threw up a little bit in my mouth after using the word, "art" - even though I used sarcastic quotes around the word...)

Every time I see another Fallin example, I say a little prayer to Al Hirschfeld, asking him to forgive Fallin "for he knows not what he does".

Yeah. That Quinto is PRETTY good.

I can see Zachary Quinto and Jim Parsons. And knowing they're in the show I can guess Andrew Rannells and Matt Bomer. The rest are ridiculous. Apparently young Stephen Schwartz has time traveled to be in Boys in the Band.

Also, why are they all floating heads with no thought to composition?

Even when they're recognizable, they still don't look good.

I didn't know a badly rendered George Takei was starring in Pretty Woman and about to shut a box on an unsuspecting Valerie Bertinelli's hand.

It takes a real talent to make Andy Karl unrecognizably unattractive.

How anyone could create such a dreadful caricature based on these two is really, truly, beyond me....

Sigh!  It certainly makes it clear how much special talent it takes to actually create a good caricature...the moment you see a Hirschfeld of any Broadway luminary, you KNOW immediately who it is, and at the same time there is a sense of the performance from which the image is conjured, and a touch of magic!  None of that in any of Ken Fallin's work, that I've ever seen....it's like the Emperor's New Clothes...he seems to have some people blinded to how truly bad his caricatures really are!  Oh, well...  I'll just keep looking at this:
