Oh, that's too, too funny.

The room the cast part is in (if it's real) is stunning.

It's cute that they think they can constantly pit Katherine McBasic against Megan Hilty in these musical numbers.

^Yes! And I loved the staging of it (with the characters of her life behind her.)

For he very first time I thought "I really want to see that musical".

I know that Tom/Kyle isn't much more of an age difference than Tom/Sam, but Kyle looks like he's 12.

Does Brantley not exist in this show?

Jimmy, what are you doing here in the middle of the night? It's almost 9 PM!

Brantley exists. Julia said, "Well you know Ben Brantley. If you're not in US Weekly he won't give you the time of day." (or something like that)

Marie: Don't be in such a hurry about that pretty little chippy in Frisco. Tony: Eh, she's a no chip!

And for a moment, I thought they could make Bernadette be the casualty. (What a horrid thought.)

another great episode. so little was focused on Hit List tonight. And Hilty destroyed McZzzzz in their duet. I guessing with Bombshell now open, next week's episode will [sadly] focus on Hit List(a lot) moving to Broadway.

A Chorus Line revival played its final Broadway performance on August 17, 2008. The tour played its final performance on August 21, 2011. A new non-equity tour started in October 2012 played its final performance on March 23, 2013. Another non-equity tour launched on January 20, 2018. The tour ended its US run in Kansas City and then toured throughout Japan August & September 2018.

I was just able to catch the second half of the show, so there are some things I didn't understand. Katherine's acting is gradually getting worst, but her number with Ivy was spectacular.

Although I hate Kyle's new hair, I'm really happy he's getting together with Tom. I can see them collaborating since they're both having problems with their current partners.

LOVED Eileen last lines, she's the fiercest woman on that show.

And by "collaborating," you mean boning, right?

They're collaborating on having an orgasm. It'll be a big splash!

I basically loved this episode. It felt very season one. There was barely a mention of Hit List and we finally got Hilty/McPhee scenes. As much as I have hated on McPhee's acting, she really has chemistry with Hilty and I've missed seeing their relationship this season. Their duet was spectacular- from both sides.

He was banging Julia's husband.

I thought this episode was awful and totally undramatic. Who cares about any of these people at this point???
AV Club rates it a C.

"Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they've been given than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact. It's an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It's a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing.” ~ Muhammad Ali

I came into the episode late and almost died when I saw the Hotel Carter. That's just plain wrong.

I thought it was very satisfying to see Bombshell actually get to opening night. We've been following this show for two years, and labor of love that it was, we finally saw it stand on its own.

On the other hand Hit List is moving through the process at warp speed. How many episodes are left? 5 or 6? And in that time period Hit List is going to open on to open off-Broadway, transfer and open on Broadway, Tony nominations will be announced and then the awards will be handed out? That's A LOT of ground to cover.

Marie: Don't be in such a hurry about that pretty little chippy in Frisco. Tony: Eh, she's a no chip!
