Mario Lopez to be Broadways new Leo Bloom? — Page 2

How did things get so desperate at The Producers so quickly? One week we thought they were just hitting some bad grosses, the next week Tony Danza and now possibly Mario Lopez are being put into the show. Very strange, indeed.

I like Mario. I *LOVE* THE PRODUCERES. I can't see him in the show at all- in any role.

He won't do it cause like so many people said before this he's afraid he'll embrass himself.

I'm going to see Danza in January when I'm off from school, but the real reason that I'm seeing it, is to see Roger Bart.

I think maybe they should've tried for John O'Hurley for Max, instead of Tony Danza. I don't know why but I just see him as Max.

Oy, god.. why? First Danza now this? But in speaking with a one Hunter Foster and a one John Treacy Egan on Sunday afternoon, they both hinted at returning to their roles. So, it is my guestimation that they will close the show. Don't quote me, but I'm pretty sure. And if that happens, I will not have to throw myself off a building for the poor Bialystock casting.

Trust me when I say, I will see the (what I like to call) The Tony Danza Comedy Hour for pure comedic effect and to watch Roger Bart carry the show.

I'm done babbling.

Mario Lopez as the timid Leo Bloom? Absolutely not. As the flamboyant Carmen Ghia? Perhaps.

Danza didn't suck.

"There weren't any Mexican's in New York during the 50's working as accountants."

*that is really racist.
