[Title of Show] non-fans?

Posted: 8/18/06 at 4:09pm

Has there been a thread on this board by people who DON'T like "[Title of Show]", or think it's overrated? (sorry, I've been away for a while)

If not, does anyone have anything to say?

Why would you waste your time starting a thread for people who don't like a show? Get over it.

I loved it. A fun, enthusiastic show and a great evening out.
Brantley said it was for " show queens."

I'm this straight boy who's been telling everyone to go out and see this and plan the CD and put it on my iPod with all my punk,alternative, rap and other stuff.

I am not a fan. The two women---especially the wonderful Heidi Blickenstaff, who deserves to be in a starring role on Broadway NOW---are fabulous, but the show just came off to me as one overlong running gag.

[Title of Show] IS the title of the show,SweetQintheLights. It's a fairly critically-acclaimed off bway show.

I love this show and listen to the CD all the time, but this guy over at Playbill.com just recently reviewed the album and pretty much hated it (despite saying that Bell and Bowen are ready for Broadway)...such an idiot. He can't figure out that "An Original Musical" is a Schoolhouse Rock parody!...

Best show on Broadway, maybe ever!

respeck, as much as I respeck you, it was only OFF-Broadway.

Unfortunately, this show will have little to no life anywhere else. I love it and am sure the people involved will have great careers because of it.

Wouldn't it be funny if a sitcom was developed around this show..? They all work so well together and a deconstruction of the form could be interesting.

Sorry for the non-New Yorkers who won't get a chance to see it! At least buy the CD and you'll get the idea.

The bonus track rocks! (and Playbill, was shockingly off the mark on this one!)

TOS not that great

"Wouldn't it be funny if a sitcom was developed around this show..?"

Uh, there was a sitcom developed BEFORE this show. It was called "Seinfeld." The scene in TOS of them sitting around saying "let's write a show about this...you mean just what we're saying here...etc." sounded almost identical to the episodes where Jerry & George are writing their sitcom for NBC.

And that was my problem with TOS. It's been done before -- the "meta" thing, the referencing of insider musical theater trivia, the spoofing of the whole musical theater genre.

Hahaha! I knew someone would say that. I was trying to quote Angels In America. Oh well.
