Members jul21 Posted May 18, 2010 Members Share Posted May 18, 2010 I'm unabashedly loving the musical. It's got faults for sure- too Starr centric and cheesy with the "true love" junk. But, the production is darn good. And sorry - but Jason Tam is a super triple threat. Love his voice. Suddenly began to think that Markko and Starr might make a good couple. Loved the ending with Markko watching the video as skanky Langston walked in on Fordho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Eric83 Posted May 18, 2010 Members Share Posted May 18, 2010 Uh yeah the only one I liked today was "I Gotta Feeling", the rest was crap ESPECIALLY "If I Could Turn Back Time". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted May 18, 2010 Members Share Posted May 18, 2010 The musical does, yes. Our healing from this national tragedy, however, will take a lot longer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Khan Posted May 18, 2010 Members Share Posted May 18, 2010 Nice try, but the horrible and disgusting images have been permanently seared onto your frontal lobes, and you know it, lol. This is probably one time where I wouldn't mind President Obama coming on national TV and telling us that we will stand together as a nation and rise above this somehow.

Members Eric83 Posted May 18, 2010 Members Share Posted May 18, 2010 Starr and Markko looked cute together during that song Markko sang. I hope they go there with them romantically once Markko and Langston's relationship implodes. Starr/Cole need a break, he could have been with Hannah, but they have most likely ruined the chances of that happening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ReddFoxx Posted May 18, 2010 Members Share Posted May 18, 2010 I liked "If I Could Turn Back Time", Tika was the best singer on that number, I wasn't really liking anyone else's vocals. The best part for me was when Markko saw the video of Matthew and Destiny discussing Langston's cheating, I didn't see that one come. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Juliajms Posted May 18, 2010 Members Share Posted May 18, 2010 Yeah, I thought they did pretty well with that one too. I hope they keep Destiny's prom date around. He's a cutie and I like the way he's undeterred by her Matthew crush. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members casandranow Posted May 18, 2010 Members Share Posted May 18, 2010 For me, the only redeeming song out of all the other ones they've rather butchered was 'We Belong'. But holy crap, if they were trying to capitalize on the popularity of Glee, they're just not doing it. I LOVE Glee, and all I've been thinking is that they would be doing everything ten times better. And now I want the Glee girls to do Pat Benatar. I will say, I wanna see what they do with Battlefield, since it's kind of an epic song IMO. I'm almost scared though.

Members quartermainefan Posted May 18, 2010 Members Share Posted May 18, 2010 I am watching this now on Hulu and it is a mess. This isn't Glee, this is Uglee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members quartermainefan Posted May 18, 2010 Members Share Posted May 18, 2010 I don't know where to post this so it is actually on topic, but if OLTL ever needs to recast Brody, they can get former teen star Chris Klein and the transition will be seamless for the next musical.

Members DRW50 Posted May 18, 2010 Members Share Posted May 18, 2010 I thought the songs/numbers on Monday's show were all OK-ish, with the exception of If I Could Turn Back Time, which had some horrible shout-singing and other awful noises, but the worst part was that horrible effect where they were supposed to be standing in front of a clock. Remember on Dark Shadows when they would do Chromakey, and it was so primitive looking that the actors would start to fade into a blue background? How did they get this in 2010?? The opening number at the prom I actually sort of liked, and surprisingly I sort of liked one or two of the 1500 solo numbers Starr had in the episode. I was a bit bewildered by the scene when she was reunited with Cole, as it looked like they were going to run her over, or bust her. I also liked the quick moment she had with Matthew when they were talking about the old days. It was nice to see Matthew in a scene with someone different. Was anyone else creeped out with Nate and his "feelings" for Danielle? He looks older every time I see him and when he is leering at her from afar it doesn't make that any better. Susan Haskell has more chemistry with a letter than she has with Michael Easton. I wish Roxy wouldn't enable Natalie's worst traits, but I did laugh when she got in that awful line about all of Natalie's "parts." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members SFK Posted May 18, 2010 Members Share Posted May 18, 2010 I liked that too, reminded me of when he was little and teased Starr about her braces. "MAAAthyewww, I'm gonna kill yewww!" Say that! [nodding "yes"] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted May 18, 2010 Members Share Posted May 18, 2010 Did any of you watch the special Suzanne Somers was in twenty years ago, with music from the Pointer Sisters? Totally Minnie. They had a lot of Disney montages set to pop tunes, and some cameos from people like Elton John (or as Minnie said, "OHHH, ELTON!") This Disney-esque type of energy reminds me of that, although I guess they have little in common, aside from the Disney thing. That was one of the first places I heard a lot of Pointer Sisters or Natalie Cole. http://www.youtube.com/watch#!v=UYKEw5ZltfA&feature=related Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
