What about the rest? Chorus Line? Martin Short?

and the non-musicals as well? I mean, if we are talking tallies for the whole season, there's LITTLE DOG, THE TWO AND ONLY, and KIKI & HERB too (semi-musical).

Let's be real - this is not "American Idol" where the number of positive and negative votes necessarily means anything. It is nice to have good reviews but (dare I say it) the New York Times and USA Today are hardly comparable.
