ReplyDeleteHedwig FTW!
ReplyDeleteIm going this fall. Hope to see the LBJ play, Act One, Gents Guide. Sorry not a fan of Hedwig. That said, NPH is the odds on fave.

ReplyDeleteI must get into the city and see Hedwig with NPH ASAP !!!
ReplyDeletePoor Franco
ReplyDeleteYay, Chris O'Dowd!!
ReplyDeleteSo many great plays to see!
ReplyDeleteI graduated high school with the man that wrote Beautiful. I hope he wins :)
ReplyDeleteI went to HS with Sutton Foster, not that she needs anything else for her mantle, but I always hope she wins
ReplyDeleteVera L was Sutton kick as even then?
ReplyDeleteI have to say I am pleased they gave noms to the vets of the Great White Way rather than kowtowing to "celebrity". That is perfect.
Guido enjoy trip.
I would love to see the LBJ play and Estelle Parsons.
I saw the opening night of All The Way at the American Repertory Theatre last fall (thanks to my friend Julia!); it was a decent play, but Bryan Cranston was damn good in it, so I'm going to be personally prejudiced and hope he wins. :-) Oh, and getting to shake Walter White's hand at the after-show wingding wasn't bad, either... ;-) (FWIW, he's very handsome in person!)
ReplyDeleteI will forever mourn that I can't fly to NYC and see Chris O'Dowd.
ReplyDeleteHeeey, Ray! <3 Haha, Franco was shut out!
Seven, we have to talk. We both love us some Chris O'Dowd. So it came up a couple of times about the IT Crowd, so I found it on Netflix and...
Deleteit was awful. So bad. I didn't know an old tv show could make me find someone LESS attractive in their current incarnation, but it was just terrible enough to do it.
I hope you understand, but I get it if you wanna give back the BFF necklace.
Peace
TTM
@TTM, I'm a geek, that's probably why I love it so much. Well, that and I love hearing Chris talk. And Moss, I <3 Moss. Different strokes, eh?
DeleteKeep that necklace on! :D
Oh I love the IT Crowd! Noel Fielding as a vampire was my fave....it's a particularly British humour and pretty geeky...
DeletePlus Richard Ayoade is a comic genius....the Might Boosh and Garth Marenghi's Darkplace and two of my all time faves...
DeleteMighty!! Damn spellchk
Delete@BeckyMae, Electric Moccasins :D
DeleteI'm STUNNED that you didn't like it, @TTM. Not sure what to say. Just so sad for you, kinda wanna give you a hug.
DeleteGuys, it has a laugh track!! And the first episode is Chris O'Dowd looking like he totally smells like ass! I only watched 2, does it, does it get a lot better?
DeleteThanks for understanding, Seven
@TTM, it does get better, but if it's not your type of humour, it won't. There's a dorkily funny storyline about a new CEO who is a complete wad. I won't spoil it for you. ;)
DeleteI despise laugh tracks, they're an unnecessary evil that we still have to put up with sometimes. Fun fact: laugh tracks came about in the early age of television when people needed cueing to know which lines were the funny ones - they were trying to mimic the audience interaction of comedy clubs (if other people laugh, you will, too) and not have to rely on the unreliability of live audiences.
No Franco lmfaooooo
ReplyDeletePoor Michelle Williams, I had hoped Cabaret would've been a big hit. But Menzel, Foster and the perennially overdue O'Hara are always great.
ReplyDeleteDoogie Stinson will win, the whole anti-hetero thing is a shoe in when it comes to awards. How else do you explain Horseface Swank getting two Oscars?
ReplyDeleteOhhh Richard, Noel and Ruth Jones! *swoon*
ReplyDeleteI know he's so pudgy and posit it but Noël will forever have a place in my nether-regions....
Jesus Enty, hit the Enter key every once in a while wouldja? Break that shit up a bit.
