How lame! They're using a fake lobby! That is NOT the Gershwin!

No, it's the Pantages in Los Angeles, where Betty is filmed.
And it's the LA company. Is Ms. Hilty always that bouncy and breathy, or is it the TV? Either way, looks like she's lost a ton of weight.

Yep. She most definitely is.
Does it piss anyone else off that they were texting each other and talking incessantly? Showing that on national TV is basically telling anyone who ever goes to see a show if Ugly Betty can text, so can I!!

Posted: 11/1/07 at 8:47pmI was very annoyed by that as well.
The towel waving reminded me of a Per?nist rally. I kept chanting "Evita!" whenever they'd pan to the crowds. - SM2

Posted: 11/1/07 at 8:47pmI love Eden. Kind of upset they cut the song short so we couldn't hear her sing the whole thing.

Posted: 11/1/07 at 8:52pmso it was established that it ws filmed in the LA theatre for Wicked, my questions is I know its TV but why is Galinda's bubble down at the end of Act 1

Why would the bubble just move on it's own? Anyway, they ruined the climatic end of the first act 
I wanted to hear Eden belt out the end.

Posted: 11/1/07 at 8:52pmEden sounded beautiful as usual, but she sounded like they kind of played with her voice.

Posted: 11/1/07 at 8:53pmI thought it was a good episode! I liked how they had the songs from wicked.
#11re: 'Wicked' on Ugly Betty - Fake Lobby!
Posted: 11/1/07 at 8:56pmOMG! I love how they just showed Betty coming out of the Wicked "stage door" and she was standing right in front of Juniors (which is on 45th!) and then showed her walking towards the Music Box Theatre... They showed have checked their geography a little better!!

And another 5 million gets added to the advance. Wicked just got 10 times the exposure that Legally Blonde got broadcasting the whole show.
This is a case where the rich get richer.

Posted: 11/1/07 at 9:08pmI was so confused about the bubble. Props don't move by themselves, and they are not weight activated or anything. So confusing!

I quoted it in the Off-Topic thread... I laughed uncontrollably during that section.

Posted: 11/1/07 at 9:16pmIm so happy that Justin is back to his good old theate loving self again. Now we just need him to narrate/sing an episode!

Ok, I will openly admit I was depressed that it wasn't Julia (I don't give two shakes about 'Wicked'). Then I got over it...
Not the best UB Episode, but it was cute. The kids trading the playbills was the best part of the show, IMO.

I'm sorry, I just can't get over the talking/texting in the theater thing. That is so unacceptable and the show completely reinforced that as being as an okay behavior.
Boo on you, Ugly Betty, boo on you.
