It is annoying. He's popping up on telecharge too, or at least he was a week or so ago. It's really making me not want to see Fame Becomes Me!

ETA: Not that I had that much interst in it in the first place.

Agreed. Terribly annoying. Playbill.com and telecharge.com should be ashamed.

I actually like it. But if it were for any other show, I'd be pissed.

I found it ammusing. I was on telecharge and all of a sudden I heard this voice and I look down and it's a mini Martin Short, and I got excited and waved and went "Hi Mini Martin Short!"

Yeah. I'm wierd.

YES! I thought it was irritating on Telecharge but playbill.com is just much, much worse.

It was funny the first time, but now I'm just sick of it.

They've now removed it, thank God. Looks like they got a lot of complaints.

It is still there, you have a cookie on your IP so you will only see it once a session. Keep the complaints coming if you want them to stop that kind of invasive advertising.
