Why yes, I am avoiding work and googling “Gideon Grody-Patinkin shirtless?”

Broadway producers + marketing teams who aren’t on Hell’s Kitchen…I’m BEGGING you, buy ad space on the digital ad squares on the MTA New Haven line trains. I see nothing but Hells Kitchen ads… over&over, exclusively. No other Broadway shows. HK has cornered this market and my eyes. I’m BEGGING you.

If there’s one takeaway from tonight’s Oscars, it is that Big Brooch runs this town. Make no mistake. Big Brooch runs Hollywood.

My “discover” feed is 90% porn and thirst traps, and to be perfectly frank, BlueSky… I’m exhausted. And bored.

Thanks to the AMC stories channel, every time I turn the tv on Mad Men is playing, so I’m rewatching Mad Men in bits and pieces, and I can barely believe how good it is. And I’ve seen the entire thing.

the fact that Jane Krakowski has been a lead of no fewer than 3 acclaimed TV comedy series, 2 of them created by SNL top dog Tina Fey, 1 of them inspired by SNL and titled after where SNL is made...AND she sings and dances (with 3 Tony noms & 1 win for it)... and has never once hosted SNL...

most broadway fans don't know... the original idea for their favorite musical, Bring Back Birdie, was that Birdie, after being drafted and sent overseas, was captured and held hostage as a POW, so the FBI trains Rosie (Chita Rivera) as a spy to go after him and bring him back.

There’s a guy in the Grand Central subway station just walking around yelling at everyone “HURRY UP”. Heroes don’t always wear capes.

No, I’m sorry, but you’ll have to find another word for it. “quoteSKEET” isn’t it. You just have to stop calling it a “skeet” … nothing makes this platform look like a bigger joke. NoSKEET

From the conversation of two ladies behind me at a play: “…it says, “the life and times of the wicked witch of the west” … it’s based on the Wizard of Oz. …It’s not for children. … I think teenage girls.” (the play, Hillary and Clinton by Lucas Hnath)

Look, yes there are lots of poles and holes here, but until I can get 854 likes and 30 RTs for listing the great movie adaptations of musicals, within someone else’s thread, BlueSky won’t feel like home.
