I was laughing at that Krakowski bit long before I figured out what the hell she was doing.

I bought a 3-month subscription, so was able to watch it on my TV via my Roku. It worked perfectly; no buffering problems at all. I'm sorry many did have issues and I hope you get to see it from the beginning soon! I loved it. Laura Benanti was just glorious. I'd totally forgotten that Gavin Creel was in it and I thought he was great. Zachary Levi was endearing and Jane Krakowski was just wonderful.
The only thing I wasn't crazy about was the women's costumes; I thought they were quite unflattering and drab. Well, the coats were fine, but everything else...I haven't seen the show in the theater so maybe they look better from a distance? I really hated those pajamas Benanti's wore.
But the stream itself was great & I hope they do more!

The problems aside in the first 20 mins, it was overall a beautiful show and experience. Great performances all around. Laura was divine, but Jane also gave a masterclass performance. I thoroughly enjoyed Levi and the supporting male cast as well. Gavin Creel was deliciously devious. LOVE LOVE LOVED IT! I hope more Broadway shows try to do this.

I feel like it's definitely a theme with Krakowski's characters! It's as if Ilona was written for her, really.

This was a triumph on every level. Bravo to all involved.

I saw this production on its first day of previews back in February. We sat in side orchestra row L and loved the performance, though did feel bored during certain parts (more at fault with the book than the performers.)
Anyway, I actually preferred the livestreaming? Why? Well, I was comfortable on my couch eating what else? vanilla ice cream! Also, we were able to see soem nice closeups of the facial expressions of Jane Krakowski, Laura Benanti, and of course Zachary Levi. I also have to say kudos to the cameramen for showing different perspectives and angles throughout the livestream (whereas when we saw the show in the theater, we only saw the entire show from one view/perspective.
Imagine if Hamilton did a live streaming!??!?!?!?! Anyways, I'm really glad BroadwayHD chose She Loves Me to livestream first and hopefully more shows will go this route. This is particularly great for families and those who do not live in New York City nor have the $$$ to travel here and watch a Bway show.

I just paid the $9.99 and was really excited to watch, and it just doesn't work. The video player says 'Invalid Content' every time I press play. I've tried restarting the computer, my internet works fine and videos work on every other site.. is anyone having this issue here? Everyone on this Board seems really happy but on the livestream's page the comments are pretty angry.. I didn't have these problems at all when I watched the Daddy Long Legs livestream (and that was free)...
edit: I guess this might be because they're not showing the replay yet? So confusing, they need an FAQ or something..

I was able to see the show twice live and I was really hoping they would catch Jane in this scene. Sooooo glad they did. Hilarious.

Brilliant gif! 
Can't stop thinking about how happy this made me. What a joy and triumph, both on a production and broadcast level. Over the moon.
Posted: 6/30/16 at 11:52pm
Unfortunately, I wasn't able to watch the show tonight. But I love seeing all the love this show is getting, it truly is a wonderful production.
Posted: 6/30/16 at 11:52pm
What a perfectly lovely show. So happy I could see this since I'm not getting to NY until late August.
Had no issues with the stream once the show started. It buffered twice, but restarted quickly both times. We were able to hook the laptop up to the ginormous TV so everything was crystal clear.
Really hope they do more shows. This was stunning!
Posted: 6/30/16 at 11:54pm
It's exciting to see that people who weren't able to see the production live are getting the chance to enjoy it. This could really be the future of preserving shows.

I also noticed Laura Benanti spilled ice cream on herself/bed. I don't recall noticing that when I saw it at Studio54 back in February but I wasn't sure if that part was scripted or if it was an accident.

It was fabulous. What a monumental achievement for all involved . The stream for me worked beautifully . I watched it on our big screen . The sound was also,pretty fabulous. One itzy bitzy criticism. Zachary Levis nervous laughter has expanded from just specific places to all over the place in his performance. Just something I have noticed has developed since the beginning of the run. It's just a minor thing. I still find him so endearing.

Luckily, my two buffering issues were right before curtain went up. Thoroughly enjoyed it!!

Does anyone know when it'll come up for rewatching? Just purchased it but missed the live stream because of work.
Posted: 7/1/16 at 12:19am
It will be available tomorrow according to their twitter! I missed it as well :/
Posted: 7/1/16 at 1:01am
Great GIF! Is there one of Laura Benanti dropping the ice cream and then eating it? I would use that in so many situations.

I noticed that too. I also agree that I find him so charming. Question, has that cartwheel in his song She Loves Me always been there? I don't recall that from the performance I saw, but I figured he added it just for the Tony performance.
Also, I find Gavin so vocally fun! Compared the cast recording, I loved the small touches he added to certain notes tonight. Maybe my ears were deceiving me. I'll watch again tomorrow.

I was most impressed by Nicolas Barasch! Only 17 years old, that kid is going places. I'm amazed he didn't get a Tony nom (but it was such a stacked year).
Someone mentioned the costumes, I actually would buy a pair of those hot pink jim-jams that Laura was wearing for myself!
This was such a treat! I hope this becomes more and more common for shows to stream!! For the record I watched on Chrome on my computer and had zero trouble with the screening, no buffering etc.
Posted: 7/1/16 at 1:40am
I sadly wasn't able to watch the entire thing (missed the first part of act two up through "Where's My Shoe"
but what I saw was magnificent. My buffering issues subsided by the first note of the overture and it streamed in beautiful HD the entire rest.
As everyone has said, truly a triumph.
