Cool--although it does seem to be rather odd programming for Easter Sunday, if you stop to think about it!

Tivoed, because no matter who's on tomorrow - and I sincerely hope the entire cast - I have not woken up at 5 AM on Easter since my parents stopped hiding eggs.

I'm not positive, but I don't think this is a performance. Just a feature on the show.

I set my tv to record it...but we had a poweroutage and everything got messed up. so it didn't tape. i almost cried when i woke up the next morning and realized it hadn't worked.
Can anyone upload video of it so that I could watch it, or give me a link on where I could find it?
I would appreciate it so much. I'm dying to see it.
well thank you to anyone who replies

Theaterlover2, they repeat segments quite a bit on this show, so I'd just keep an eye out for it again. Maybe subscribe to the newsletter so you're sure to get the news? I slept in and missed it, too, so that's what I'm hoping for! But I'll keep an eye out for you!

I tried to tape it but when I woke up the next morning I found out that the vcr didn't tape correctly, so I missed it too. I hope they replay it b/c I really wanted to watch it.

I saw it -- it was interesting but you didn't miss much. It was just an interview with Michael and Patti -- no performances, and it was relatively short. The interview basically explained the concept of the show -- since we all know the concept already, I don't think you would have learned much that you didn't already know.

People, look at the date of the FIRST post - 4/14.
It was referring to A&E Breakfast with the Arts for 4/16.

Patti and Michael were on LAST Sunday. Just interviews. No live performances. Very very short clips from the show.
