No offense meant...but how are NPH and Patrick Wilson even remotely 'way' overdue for a Tony???
They've been members of the Broadway community for what? Five years??

All of those people have been in just a few songs and are relatively young.

Guys, someone who's been on Broadway less than 10 years can't be considered "way overdue." Have a little perspective here.
You can say that these younger actors might have already deserved a Tony, but "way overdue" is another thing altogether. It implies a long career and probably multiple nominations.
And I agree about Beth Fowler; she's wonderful and has a really great body of work.

To gain some perspective, kiddies:
My choice was Tovah Feldshuh. Her first nomination was 26 years ago, she's had 4 nominations in all, no wins. THAT is "way overdue." Not someone who's 25 years old and has been in one or two shows. Get it now?

NPH - No
taye diggs - No
kerry butler - No
adam pascal - No
anthony rapp - No
raul esparza - No
Not to say they aren't good at what they do, but c'mon. There are performers in their 70's who don't have Tonys yet and the question was which Tonys are overdue. These younger performers will get their chance but in NO way are their awards overdue.

Adam Pascal?
Oh dear God, someone please reassure me that only one person thinks this.
He has got a LONG way to go to even deserve a Tony.

Posted: 8/18/04 at 11:20pmLG, if you hadn't noticed, there is a serious perspective problem here.

It friggin' drives me nuts.
Whoever mentions Eden Espinosa will receive a bitchslap.
(I know, she hasn't even originated a role on Broadway yet, I still expect someone to say it.)

#41re: Way Overdue TONY AWARDS
Posted: 8/18/04 at 11:40pmIf we're going to get technical, I would like Matt to accept him.

Julie Andrews definately.
This isn't overdue. But I think that Jackman and Tartaglia should have tied this year.
