"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

I saw the man who plays Adam Chandler on All My Children play Sweeney years ago, and he was fantastic.

That's cool to know! I love finding out the secret skills of longtime soap stars.

It's almost as cool as seing that staged performance of Sweeney Todd that was on PBS a couple of Halloweens ago, and finding out that Doogie Howser is a really good singer. (He played Toby.) Actually, I think finding out anybody is a really good singer, when you don't really expect it, is really cool. (To wit: Hugh Jackman hosting the Tonys.)

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

I think Russell Crowe could really be fantastic in the part, but I'd hate to hear songs as fabulous as 'Epiphany' growled through.

I place hope in the fact that Mr. Crowe's ego is outsized, but not so outsized that he spurns research and training. Which will (hopefully) prod him to take some serious vocal training in order to prove that he can do it all by himself. Physically, I think he'd make a fantastic Sweeney.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

Doogie Howser is a really good singer. (He played Toby.)

Which was very distracting when I saw him in Proof with Len Cariou playing the father.

If I only had a brain...

Thankfully there is a long tradition of substitute singers in Hollywood musicals.

Yes, and why the FRELL didn't they follow this tradition in POTO?

They were worried about the synch making it look fake? Oh, wait...

POTO

Long, loong moment of, "Pirates of the...? Octopi?"

Then I got it. Nebber mind.

He was awesome in that.

I wish I'd seen him in Cabaret.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

I'm having NPH envy. Who knew?

I wish I'd seen him in Cabaret.

Oh, hell yes.

How was NPH in Assassins? He played the balladeer and Oswald, right?
