"The Spectacle has, indeed, an emotional attraction of its own, but, of all the parts, it is the least artistic, and connected least with the art of poetry. For the power of Tragedy, we may be sure, is felt even apart from representation and actors. Besides, the production of spectacular effects depends more on the art of the stage machinist than on that of the poet."
--Aristotle

Trump ruined it.

The Drew Carey Show also did a nice rendition about 10 years ago.

Also, do ny of the old timers out there remember the "There is a Brotherhood of Hamms" beer commercial from the late 1960's?

That was WONDERFUL!

And I want to see more of Jimmy Fallon tap-dancing through a revolving door.

I'm glad to see Community included! The whole thing was very well done. Far more entertaining than watching football!

That was brilliant.

Liz Lemon: "I disagree."

And Amy Poehler was great, as was Jimmy Fallon.
The big introduction for Smash made me laugh.

"Noel [Coward] and I were in Paris once. Adjoining rooms, of course. One night, I felt mischievous, so I knocked on Noel's door, and he asked, 'Who is it?' I lowered my voice and said 'Hotel detective. Have you got a gentleman in your room?' He answered, 'Just a minute, I'll ask him.'" (Beatrice Lillie)

Tremendous. My only wish is that CHUCK, my absolute favourite TV show which just had its series finale, was included.

I wish they had let the cast of harry's law do a little singing, i mean come on no solo for karen olivo, and you barely hear maya rudolph who has a really great voice.

Actor2, the inclusion of Chuck would have been perfection. But I did very much enjoy this! And I also agree that the Drew Carey Show rendition is a lot of fun.
