The show *is* open-ended. This disappoints me (casting). I was kinda hoping Chita would extend till like....um...forever. At least MSM isn't leaving yet. *That* would be tragic. She totally nails the role. Jane I could take or leave - she's good in her first number but doesn't really add much for the rest of the show. Maybe I'll go again on Sunday...
Well, you know I'm a bit biased to Miss Krakowski because everyone and their mother tells me I look like the woman! (Including Jane herself!?)
I really am intrigued to see Jenna Elfman though. I'm waiting for the entire replacement cast... I can't believe MSM is the only one staying. Hmmm...for kicks and giggles...WHO would be a great replacement Luisa???

So far, the replacement cast is amazing, with the exception of Jenna Elfman, in my opinion. There are better Broadway veterans to play the role. People who could really be amazing, since Eartha and Stamos are now in the show we could cast someone perfect for the role who isn't so famous outside of the Broadway community- Felicia Finley, Sherie rene Scott- hell, put her understudy, Sara Gettelfinger in the role. The woman is a powerhouse!
