| I made it through the first 2 scenes of the NBC broadcast. I keep saying that at some point I'll go back and watch the rest...but...I have a lot of things to do...;-) In terms of the above medley - yup - this looks fun. I wasn't sure at first about this Hannigan, but by the end of the song she had won me over. Also, love the set. And the Annie has a nice, unaffected voice. |

| The Miss Hannigan is really good, a heightened but still believable performance suitable for this starring role! | |

| The Hannigan has played Elphaba in three different languages including English on Broadway. When she was in NYC, per a recommendation here, I ran to the theater to see her in it. She was great. | |

| That'll learn you to come to America knowing three languages. That was unpleasant to watch. | |

| Vekaik being presented as a novelty act by Rudetsky because she's proficient in three languages. | |

| I forgot it was on until well into the telecast. I remembered and tuned in during ”You're Never Fully Dressed Without a Smile.” The kids were good, and I stuck with it through that, and barely stuck with it through the Hannigan-Rooster-Lily scene that follows, but gave up completely during the FDR scene after that. Perhaps I will try watching it from the beginning on demand. The worst thing that will happen is that I will watch a bit and then decide I really had seen enough. Or maybe I would find that I like at least some of the beginning more. This is a show in which I had little interest until a few years ago. Now I think very highly of it. Not in my top 10 or 20, but it really is very smart and well-crafted. |

| I've done the show twice with all-kids' casts, and really enjoyed it. I think very highly of it too, and agree that it's well-written and smart. And a lot of humor for the adults - it's not just a kids' show at all. | |
