Part of my early post re: Rose's Turn dealt with the fact that the number -- taken out of the context of the show -- probably won't have much affect on the TV audience. Bernedette Peters and the show's producers may want to show off what she can do with that number to the theatre community, but Everything's Coming Up Roses is a number that WILL work out of context and would be an equally good vehicle to showcase her interpretation of the role.
