1. Something about Idina, Wicked, Chenoweth, JLT, Elphaba, Glinda, or something equally pointless.
2. What is your favorite....(fill in the blank) - flop, actor, actress...
3. This or that and choose type threads - movies, broadway, composers...
4. Audition Help
5. Something totally pointless about how someone's a bad cook, or someone doesn't have friends - things no one on here cares about.

And my personal favorite:
how does the beast transform into the prince during Beauty and the Beast?
I swear that question is asked about every two months.

Without these:
"1. Most Favorite show (song, performance, actor, actress etc.)
2. Least Favorite show (song, performance, actor, actress etc.)"
it wouldn't really be a Broadway message board. I like to hear what other poeples favorite shows are and their opinions of shows.

Actually, the number of Wicked threads have declined considerably. Not even worth whining about any more.
Most popular:
Favorite ________
Least Favorite Blank _______
Book/Movie that should be a musical
Best Overture
Hot or Not
Jukebox musicals (or How Mamma Mia is singularly responsible for the closure of every subsequent book musical on Broadway all the while arrogantly entertaining millions worldwide)
"I told you so" for every bad/mixed review
Norma du jour in the film version of Sunset Boulevard
Liam's spelling and how it unquestionably proves he can be nothing other than an imposter and therefore must be treated with the cruelty reserved for serial killers and rapists
Musical plagiarism based on a 4-5 note phrase
Sondheim is the standard, not the exception, to which every composer must be compared
The Golden Age is the only era of Broadway musicals and everything before or after does not exist or should at the very least be ignored and treated with disrespect (unless it was Show Boat, Sondheim, Gershwin or Porter but we will pretend they were Golden Age because we like them)

Posted: 3/7/05 at 4:22pmmusicman117 - Thank you! The reminds me of the petition threads. Each and every one of them is responsible for magically raising enough money to produce a cast recording without actually contributing any money.

Don't be such a basher! Only positive reviews should be posted regarding any show unless the cool people decide a show is bad and then all positive reviews will be branded as the hussy shills they so obviously are. Otherwise, don't be such a hater (unless the Student Council hates the show, too).
Peace out...
