May 18, 201015 yr Member When Carl busts out the Suzanne Somers specials it's DEFINITELY time for me to take my tail to bed. And look at dude from Revenge of the Nerds... complete with Don Johnson and Cybil Shepherd name checks. I love how Donald is subtitled like a perp on "COPS" and how we're pretending Walt is still alive.
May 18, 201015 yr Member Did you guys know that the voices ofMickey and Minnie were married IRL? He died recently. I forget his name, but Minnie's voiced by Russi Taylor who does voices on The Simpsons, was Gonzo on Muppet Babies, as well as Widget the World Watcher if any of you remember that one.
May 18, 201015 yr Member Speaking of Disney though, and I kind of touched on this the other day, ABC would be wise to try to cross promote the musical and teen storylines with some of their tween/teen programming on The Disney Channel. I mean, when you look at it, Starr and them are no more risque (in some cases, tame in comparison) than the kids of Degrassi shown on Teen Nick.
May 18, 201015 yr Member SFK you took the words right out of my mouth re Carl's video links (love ya Carl ) Was Tam's song a new song? I'd never heard it before. Having seen him in A Chorus Line, the guy can dance his ass off, and I admired that he fully committed to dancing the awful choreography they had him do. And yes, that clock projection effect for Turn Back Time was uber cheap looking.
May 18, 201015 yr Member I didn't know that about the Mickey and Minnie actors. I don't know, Suzanne Somers gets on my nerves, but I loved that special way back when. Sometimes you find the best things on Youtube. When Carl busts out the Suzanne Somers specials it's DEFINITELY time for me to take my tail to bed. And look at dude from Revenge of the Nerds... complete with Don Johnson and Cybil Shepherd name checks. I love how Donald is subtitled like a perp on "COPS" and how we're pretending Walt is still alive. He looked pretty good when they made him over. I guess the whole "good looking guy made into a nerd" thing is older than I remembered. They had Phillip Michael Thomas in a cameo in one of the earlier parts of the special. I think that may have been his highest profile role for a while after Miami Vice...until those psychic commercials. Was Tam's song a new song? I'd never heard it before. Having seen him in A Chorus Line, the guy can dance his ass off, and I admired that he fully committed to dancing the awful choreography they had him do. And yes, that clock projection effect for Turn Back Time was uber cheap looking. I thought he did a good job dancing; as you said, the choreography was the problem. I don't know if they were trying to do popping and locking, but it looked like they were breaking invisible windows with their elbows.

May 18, 201015 yr Member This stuff ends tomorrow, right? Here's hoping. When my 13-year-old daughter saw this mess, she said, "Who dances like that at a prom?" And "Why are they using old songs?" The latter remark made me feel extremely aged, but I got her meaning.
May 18, 201015 yr Administrator LOL at Markko's interpretive dance. This song sounds like an 80's song? Anyone know it? Or is it an original song?
May 18, 201015 yr Member LOL at Markko's interpretive dance. I was dying! And holy head voice Markko. It's fun to imagine that you have absolutely no prior knowledge of this show or especially of this musical special and you just flipped to this out of the blue... only to find a shirtless man bathed in blue light breaking out in song, and a man of indeterminate ethnicity dancing for his life. Aww, Destiny's dude got his own number, MJ at that. It was a little weird though when he said all dreamily, "I like 'ballsy.' "
May 18, 201015 yr Member LOL at Markko's interpretive dance. This song sounds like an 80's song? Anyone know it? Or is it an original song? I'll eat crow and admit I really, really liked that number, minus the odd dancing from Markko. The Way You Make Me Feel? REALLY? REALLY?!
May 18, 201015 yr Administrator Tika's voice.....body....legs....ass..... Aww, Destiny's dude got his own number, MJ at that. " I call him mini-Omarion. LOL
May 18, 201015 yr Member If one clip of this musical doesn't make it onto E!'s The Soup I'll be shocked.
May 18, 201015 yr Member Layla sounds something like Rihanna. That was a good ending. Langston, I have such hate for her character now. What a dummy.
May 18, 201015 yr Member Woke up half way into the show. My tv was on when I fell asleep at noon after being up all night. I had it on ABC. And, I was woke up by Destiny singing MJ.
