That is incorrect. AMEX still pays for those full page NYT ads quite frequently.

Right -- because that sort of thing could NEVER happen in this day and age."
Obviously it happens. And it's not funny. And this is a comedy, isn't it?
Oh please -- just kindly take your woke self away and find someth

Guess it all depends on how the linereadings are done for Mrs. Paroo's "you didn't even say hello to your sister" and Marian's"the boy's father is dead." (paraphrasing all)
There's also the idea that Winthrop was adopted by

Agreed with whoever said before about needing to lean forward. I got a seat booster and leaned forward the entire time, but that didn’t really bother me"
Maybe not, but I'm sure it bothered the people behind you whose view you were blocking by leaning forward.
Someone in a Tree2 said: "My question is would this be a full-fledged musical or not? A 10-episode arc means either A) apportioning the existing 10 songs written for the original show over the 10 hours of the project at the rate of about one per hour, or B) writing new numbers. The second option would scream of hubris, and the first option would hardly give me a fully musicalized show.
Maybe they're gonna dust off all those trunk songs that weren't good enough to m

However, this show has many themes and parts that may be upsetting to a lot of people, so Id really advise doing research on the show before you consider getting a ticket. The actor is wonderful, but the show is very dark and could be very upsetting. Please do research before seeing this play."

You aren't sure what the relevance is when Ben was cast on Will and Grace and she was just there because they are best friends? Ok.
And, again, Ben just worked with Ryan Murphy on The Politician, he clearly had influence over him. Her being cast as Monica is laughable.At least in Versace, Darren Criss actually resembled Andrew C
Pose2 said: "Ben has always focused more on theater and now music. I don't think he has much interest in being in tons of films, if he did his Father would have already made that happen.
When Ben was on Will and Grace his best friend had a cameo. Why? Because of HIM. So, let's not bull**** each other."

If anything, I was first for Waitress back in January. An employee at the Brooks Atkinson kept nudging my shoulder and pushing my back (albeit very lightly, but still unsolicited) saying that I was starting the line too far ahead and that it was dangerous. Apparently because the han

Her unsophisticated viewpoints are matched only by sycophantish devotion to celebrity culture. Who cares what she thinks. Her mea colpes over this are a damage control maneuvers enforced by ABC to protect the brand of the atrociously low brow GMA."

Pose2 said: "IHere's the thing. I am not part of outrage culture, walking around furious about everything. But, this was a very, very serious thing. I was disgusted by him. So, the production not releasing a statement, him saying nothing publicly, and completely ignoring every single comment on their socials is just a really bad move. This is a show for young people, about young people. But, tons of people have no interest in this due to his casting. In real life and onl
