1/10
20 minutes into this so and I'm regretting it.

Warning: Spoilers
In the late 70's we used to go to the theater and watch the original. Before they banned using lighters in theaters. The characters, if over the top, were 3 dimensional. There were things you could see in their faces and hear in their voices that told you they were really there. So far in this show all of the songs come off as flat. If there is any emotion in the characters faces or voices it seems forced (as if the director said "YOU MUST EMOTE"). A woman playing a transvestite that dresses like a woman seems a little off as well. Columbia can't tap dance, they try to cover it up with sound effects but it's very obvious she's not dancing. It's depressing to someone like myself that grew up with this show and actually went once dressed as Magenta (I'm a guy, a 50 year old guy) I think I'll turn this off and go dig up my old VHS and watch that. It's infinitely better.
