God, it's hard to translate the feel of a Broadway musical number on a TV talk show in a three-minute excerpt. Daniel Radcliffe looked terrified and if I didn't know who he was or what he can do, I'd've thought he was someone they'd pulled out of the audience at the last minute. Lindsay Mendez isn't my cuppa, but then neither is Mary Flynn, probably. Groff oozes with charm that can border on the unctuous, but even in this less-than-optimum excerpt he gave me a hint of why Franklin could do what he does and still maintain a semblance of fealty from his two hard-done-by chums.

Are they doing this kind of appearance because Radcliffe has a week off coming up and they want to make sure the sales don't dip precipitously? It seems late in the run to be trotting these three hard-working pros out on a day off.
