Would that be gutsy or foolhardy? With unknown theater actors, the ratings would've been much, much lower. Carrie Underwood was the draw. She's an American Idol winner, a 6-time Grammy winner and a multi-platinum-selling recording artist.

Who's to say what's ''most artistically satisfying''? Over 18 million tuned in and stayed with it. They easily could've changed channels. It was the No. 1 show among the dream demographic of adults, 18-49, and NBC's best Thurs. since 2004.

And get no one to watch? Last night they were discussing it on TMZ and one of the girls said it was horrible and I quote "It was a stupid play thing, and there was no gazebo". And this is from someone who reports on show business everyday. No matter how low rung reporting it is, the average viewer probably knew less about it than she did going in except it starred Carrie Underwood.

A live musical on tv is the newest reality show in its own way. Maybe some of the other networks will jump on the bandwagon to compete. They usually do try to copy one another. But hopefully with accomplished singing actors.
