Was Charlotte in ACL number?
It went by so fast, I saw someone in her dress and hair, but was it her?
Also The GREASE plug was extremely cheesy and the commercial for the show made me puke.

I do not believe that was Charlotte. Probably her understudy.

John Cullum and Patrick Page were out of The Grinch. And the little kids couldn't lip synche for their lifes. Neither could The Color Purple Cast.

Chorus Line was good.

Spamalot was good but I was looking forward to see how Jonathan Hadary was but he just sat there the whole time. They cut out a couple of parts.

The commercial for "You're the one That I Want"....they're treating it like the movie when everyone should know the movie and the broadway show aren't the same.

They're doing singing from High School Musical now....*pukes*

I've got CBS on. They've already had The Jersey Boys and The Drowsy Chaperone is still coming. (I was more interested in those two shows than the ones covered by NBC).

Is it just me, or does it look like it's raining more on CBS? It's drearier than NBC!

Tell us how Jersey Boys and The Drowsy Chaperone are!

According to playbill.com, Jersey Boys were on at 9:30 (missed it---sniff), but Drowsy Chaperone will be on at about 11. (on CBS)

I think both JB and DC are pre-recorded performances. The Jersey Boys were terrific (of course). It looked like they were standing in Jersey while the tape was being made. Appropriate...

It looks like the CBS cameras are out in the rain - without any covers. Rain keeps messing up the lenses. Maybe NBC got some coverage.

Oddly enough CBS is broadcasting live so the parade is already an hour in, but NBC is broadcasting on a one hour tape delay...which is good cause I just woke up and would have been sad if I had missed all the Broadway stuff. Most of it hasn't happened on NBC yet here.

Ok. So is it not live in central time? Cause it just started here and it is 9:00.

[jonartdesigns]

Posted: 11/23/06 at 10:18am

its started at 9 am eastern (broadcast live in this time zone) i guess elsewhere its pre-recorded

This is the MACY Parade board not the CBS Parade board!

NBC is on a tape delay? I thought they don't start showing the parade because it takes about an hour for the parade to get down to Herald Square...

The first hour was a non-stop informerical for NBC's lineup, and shameless and shameful. Having to hear about tonight's ER episode and how we need to save FRIDAY NIGHT LIGHTS and tune into HEROES -- and the GREASE IDOL -- was hardly the spirit of this parade. Not a new syndrome, but this year the worst ever. I am disgusted, and I think the actors trundled out to push their shows -- Laura Tierney, prominent -- look embarrassed.

All the performances airing on NBC right now in the central time zone aired an hour ago on the East coast.

And all through the ACL performance all I could think was that that poor cast must be absolutely freezing.

I'm pretty sure that was Patrick Page in the Grinch number.

Wait why wasn't Jersey Boys on NBC yet then or will they be?

And also what song did they sing?

I was hoping to see them : (

Errr....after that I have absolutely no desire to see Grinch.

It couldn't have been Patrick Page. I thought it was at first but he was shorter and looked different.

It was Patrick Page.
