Usually a bad musicalis the most unbearable form of art, but Smash was so hilariously misguided it came around again. The greatest bad thing I've ever seen, and I'm here for its camp future."
And yet, some people liked it."
Some people like any show no matter how bad. I think the general consensus was the show was a mess but there were some excellent performances by people like Robyn Hurder.

Probably the biggest issue was simply that they did nothing to make the songs relevant to the plot (either as commentary or as a vehicle for associated emotions), so it was really just a second-rate backstage farce with random songs sprinkled throughout. If they can do anything at all to address that in the licensed version, it would at least be a step in the right direction.
