"They should of just showed commercials at the end of act one."

You just watched it for free. Do you think MTV filmed and showed it because they are nice? Who do you think paid for everything?

I enjoyed it it was pretty cool...I adore Christian Borle and Kate Shindle. The show is such a guilty pleasure and I'm glad they showed it...but the hosts were annoying and the commercials totally took you out of the moment.

did anyone enter the trivia quiz during the show? They just e-mailed the codes...

my friend won a 30GB ipod and i won a swELLE pack with LB merchandise...pretty cool :)

anyone else win something cool?

"your comparing legally blonde to mary poppins? how could you. Mary should fly down from on her magical umbrella and point at you so you get locked in a closet!"

I am not comparing the two, really. I am saying that overall, I believe Curtains, Spring Awakening, Grey Gardens, and Legally Blonde to be stronger shows than Mary Poppins. I saw Mary Poppins right after its opening in New York, and I also saw the London production a few months ago. I find it to be a manufactured bore, lacking any inventive staging or quality material.

Having seen every new musical that opened last year and was eligible, I feel qualified to share my opinion that Legally Blonde deserved the nomination over Mary Poppins.

Exactly. It seems stupid to complain about the people that are giving this show more publicity than they could ever afford on their own. PBS sure as hell would have never picked a show like this to archive; be happy it's on TV at all.

It was fun! Maybe it was better being there (the excitement and energy in the audience at the taping was crazy) but it was fun on TV. Laura Bell Bundy was great, she's adorable. We'll see if it wins the show new fans.

I saw myself on TV a bunch of times which was pretty dang neat :P

Not that I'm defending those Hills girls or anything (they're a bit dim) but has anyone else thought, seeing how they're such huge stars right now, that it was sort of neat of them to come and do this to help attract a broader audience?

Oh... and Legally Blonde is about 500 times better than Mary Poppins, which was even worse than Lestat. Or In My Life.

I am at work and recording this. When I saw Legally Blonde over Labor Day weekend, Christian Borle was out and Andy Karl played Emmett.

i just want to make sure, but you played it back and watched part of it, right? thanks for getting back to me so soon?

[sondhead]

Posted: 10/13/07 at 4:59pm

Did they seriously not show the chorus head-cock in There Right There???

The only part of the show I enjoyed when I saw it...

[staticradar]

Posted: 10/13/07 at 5:03pm

yep played back OMG you guys...

it recorded fine...try again tomorrow at 7 when they replay it maybe your device was just deciding now to not record something...

Posted: 10/13/07 at 5:08pm

Hah, Mateo, I guess. They're little rich girls anyway, they probably care more about getting more exposure on television.

Wow. I was very impressed and extremely happy. Although my tape ran out right before the finale, I got most of it on tape.

The hosts sucked and acted completely bored and stupid, but the show was superb.

Except for Orfeh's "supply CLOSET" thing. What was that?

I think the show was gret on film and it made some of the luke warm numbers (Blood in the Water) look better then they actually are. I also felt the editing was a little too crazy, BUT it gave the show an energy that can be felt in theatre watching it.

I loved the show overrall, I was into the whole time. I taped it on vcr at home but i will try to record it from the vcr to dvr when i go home one weekend before thanksgiving break. I cant wait to see it on tv tommorow night at 7pm.
I agree i hated the hills girls....they should have picked a better host/hostesses. Their interviewing was horrible.
I did the quiz and i got a free ringtones. Congrats to the person who said their friend won the ifone/ipod.

I could only watch about the first half hour, but I really actually liked how they filmed it.

"Look how far I've come without anyone holding my hand"

Umm... without Emmett wouldn't she stupid and back in Bel Air?
