(2) I hope this doesnt signal a LA LA Land situation where DEH takes awards but misses out on the Best Musical because they want to throw a bone to CFA. I liked both, but CFA didnt match DEH for substance.

Cover the Tony with sugar and give it to CFA? UGH
"

Uhh, the major award of the night would hardly be throwing a bone. I hate groupies. At least not as bad as ReNheaedz"

I am NOT a groupie, but thanks so very much for keeping the hateful attitude towards other posters alive. I respect your opinion but do not respect your shade on mine. And you are a "legend", just goes to show...

JOSH GAD GOT ME SO EXCITED FOR A SECOND!!! UGH!

I HATE Josh Gad for making me scream in excitement. And scream again in extreme disappointment lol

Ugh dammit Josh!!! I nearly screamed

Looks like Blankenbuehler gets the win for Choreography...

Between this and Lacamoire winning for orchestrations, did the voters realize that HAMILTON was last year? Both men are extremely talented, but it's strange to see them both honored again when I think that GREAT COMET was more deserving in both categories.

Woo! for Jane Greenwood.

Love that Sutton gave Gavin his trophy. Thoroughly Modern Millie full circle.

Boo for the Best Costumes Musical going to Dolly and Rachel Chavkin losing. Boo for most of the Great Comet wins not getting real air time.

I agree Spacey's opening was better than I would have guessed (not amazing but better than I'd anticipated) but I'm glad he's not on stage too much.

Not really wowed by the performances aside from Leslie and Cynthia. I need them to record a duets album immediately.

I need more Rachel Bloom. I love how excited she was about seeing Patti again.

I feel like it had a good start but the last hour has been a dud

It's obvious that the voters just overall weren't fond of The Great Comet. It was robbed of Orchestrations and Score.

Thrilled that Come from Away won't be leaving empty handed.

Hear, hear! What a perfect role that would be for him.

Wow, this Comet performance is what a Tony performance should be! Makes me want to see the show.

Stunning how the great Comet cast could manage the passerelle just fine doing more than the Dolly cast does. Things that make you go hmmmmmm.....

I'm loving this Great Comet performance. There's an energy to it that few of the other performances have had so far.

That Great Comet medley was by far the best production number of the night.
