I totally agree and was having this conversation yesterday. There is a shocking lack of individuality in many of this season's leading players. There are also (it seems to me) a bigger than ever number of leads who haven't exactly "paid their dues." I put that in quotes because I don't mean it to sound as if they have a debt to pay, but I think, for example of Karen Olivo and how she went from understudy to featured player to leading lady and along the way she learned and grew. Many of this season's leads don't seem to be quite ready. There is a blandness or, as you say, a serviceability. Is it just that younger, fresher actors are cheaper? Seems like (again, as you say) in productions costing millions, your leads isn't where you skimp.
