After what seems like three years of commercials, ABC finally debuted its new musical series GALAVANT tonight. As I'm sure you know, this eight-episode, four-week 'event' features lyrics by Tony-nominee and Grammy-winner Glenn Slater and music by Grammy, Oscar, and Tony-winner Alan Menken; who seems to be in desperate search for the Emmy to round out his EGOT.
ABC presents its highly anticipated new midseason show GALAVANT, described as 'a comedy extravaganza.' The series premieres TONIGHT, JANUARY 4 (8:00-9:00 p.m., ET) and will run two episodes in the one-hour block each week.
This Sunday, ABC launches GALAVANT, a brand new musical comedy extravaganza from the Tony, Grammy, and Oscar winning composer Alan Menken ('The Little Mermaid,' 'Aladdin,' 'Beauty and the Beast'). Recently, I spoke with stars Joshua Sasse and Karen David via telephone about the show. ABC was kind enough to record their responses in this video. I would have been on camera as well, but, as you can tell by my voice, I was pretty under-the-weather when we spoke.
In the video below, composer Alan Menken ('The Little Mermaid,' Aladdin,' 'Beauty and the Beast') and the cast discuss GALAVANT's music and the hilarious lyrics by Glenn Slater
