True. And also true that the OP's often seems to live on a different planet than the rest of us. But I will agree about 2.5 hour-long shows that start at 8pm are a nightmare for anyone who lives in an outerborough, because the trains completely fall apart after 10pm.
I often don't go home until midnight if I leave Times Square at 10:30, and that used to be a 45 minute trip.
