Posted: 12/29/06 at 10:06pmJulie White, definitely. And from what I've read, Lea Michele, and maybe Megan Lawrence all belong in that category.

Posted: 12/29/06 at 10:11pmAgreed. I'll have to create more strict regulations for next year's competition. Oh well....I've got a year to think about it.

wait...when did people even vote the first time?
i guessed i missed everything.

Posted: 12/30/06 at 7:49amI agree with Rath. Christine Ebersole has been around for over thirty years, has won a Tony in a leading category and was a full-time cast member on Saturday Night Live. I can somewhat see where you are coming from with Beth Leavel, since Drowsy is the first major role she has originated on Broadway, but certainly not Ebersole. She's a veteran, not a breakthrough.

Munk - everyone voted from Christmas Day to yesterday. As they're still being counted, I'll be glad to accept yours until noon today.
ACL - Complain to the members of the board. They all picked 'em.

Posted: 12/30/06 at 9:10amI know. I wasn't knocking you, since you're just the messenger. I'm just saying it's weird.

Posted: 12/30/06 at 1:32pmWell, Beth Leavel has been around (I had the fortune of seeing her as Dorothy Brok in 42nd Street in 2001). I vote for her, though, because if I had to choose between her and Ebersole, she fits more into the category. I can't belive though, that Ebersole and Leavel both received the highest amount of votes.

I'm guessing not many of the original voters saw LITTLE DOG LAUGHED.
I believe White's is the undisputable breakout performance of the season - at the very least.
