I have to admit that I will at least give it a try. However, I'm thinking this will either SUCK
OR will be decent but unable to find an audience to keep it alive.
Jenna Ushkawitz (totally wrong spelling, I'm sure), also from Spring Awakening, is also in show.

Posted: 1/7/09 at 9:37pmI legit thought it was her but I forgot to IMDb her and Pam/Oprah aka Raven Goodwin looks way too young but they do bear a striking resemblance!

My two favorite words from the script:
"RODEO CLOWN"
That is a Hanuman if ever there was.

Posted: 1/7/09 at 10:58pmJust to add two more shows that recently had semi-brilliant musical episodes - It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia a few months back had the characters putting together a travesty of a musical. Also, though it's hardly the first time with the series, South Park's penultimate episode for this season was this fantastic parody of High School Musical.

That Always Sunny musical was completely insane (then again, every episode of that show is insane). "You gotta pay the troll toll to get into the boy's hole/boy's soul."

"That's, like, twelve shows! ...Or seven." -Crazy SA Fangirl
"They say that just being relaxed is the most important thing [in acting]. I take that to another level, I think kinda like yawning and...like being partially asleep onstage is also good, but whatever." - Sherie Rene Scott

Posted: 1/8/09 at 9:18ampli, she really does resemble her. I swear NBC should give Pam her own spinoff!

Posted: 2/26/09 at 5:14pmEven though I agree that it looks like a big cheesy mess, I'll be watching it exclusively for Jayma Mays. (I did the same thing for Paul Blart: Mall Cop...)

Anyone have a start date? I thought it was using American Idol as it's lead in.....is that still true?

Per EW
Kristin Chenoweth and Victor Garber are joining the cast in what will likely turn out to be recurring roles!
Wicked alum Chenoweth, who showed off her awesome pipes on the late, great Pushing Daisies, will play a part that's as top secret as it is hilarious. (Sorry, that's all you're getting out of me.) Fellow Broadway vet Garber (Sweeney Todd) will play the father of Glee's leading man, Hairspray hunk Matthew Morrison. (Tony winner Debra Monk is his mom.)

Posted: 3/4/09 at 2:14pmThis is a CRAZY cast. I can't wait...and I hope it's good.

Posted: 3/4/09 at 2:16pmEven with this stellar cast (well, mostly) it has epic fail written all over it!

Did I miss it or is there still no start date?
I'm willing to give it a chance...but don't have high expectations.

Posted: 3/4/09 at 6:47pmI think this show is starting to go into Broadway Actor overload. How many people that watch Fox know who any of these people are, besides Victor Garber (because of Alias and Legally Blonde)?

Posted: 3/4/09 at 6:55pmI don't think they care if anyone KNOW these folks. BUT at least they are trying to load it with musical TALENT.
