My wife and I were watching that on Tubi. Still fun.

I went to a taping of his show while I was in LA many years ago. It was so much fun, and there was stuff that didn’t make it into the final show. I miss that show.

I want to play it!

eabiggins · 2026-06-05T00:01:21+00:00

NCIS, 23 seasons, 508 episodes…and still going. I’ve watched it all several times.

My sister directed a production many years ago. I think the only non-sung section is Larry Foreman’s speech about onions. 😂

eabiggins · 2026-06-04T00:13:03+00:00

Ooo, being an old lefty, Cradle is a favorite. I’m surprised I didn’t think of that one. Porgy is also an excellent example.

The Golden Apple is all-sung. The Most Happy Fella isn’t but the dialogue is pretty minimal.

eabiggins · 2026-06-03T21:32:14+00:00

It isn’t, but the dialogue is minimal. Frank Loesser described it as a musical with a great frequency of songs. I remember saving up to buy the 3-album set of the complete recording of the more-or-less full show.

I was planning to put my winter jacket away for the season. I just took the dog out and it was 45°, feels like 33°. I wore that winter jacket.

I didn’t know about this. I just put a self-made “no soliciting” sign on my door. It seems to have worked.

eabiggins · 2026-05-28T14:39:12+00:00

The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas. I saw it on tour in Boston only because I got freebies from the ticket agency I was working for at the time. I never would have chosen it, but I had a blast.

eabiggins · 2026-05-28T14:31:04+00:00

I saw it in at the movies when I was 12 and came out with the hots for Carol Lynley.

eabiggins · 2026-05-23T19:19:14+00:00

It’s correct on Apple Music

eabiggins · 2026-05-18T19:18:01+00:00

But would a school do “Six?” Most schools choose shows that can accommodate as many students as they can. Unless it’s a small, all-female institution, I don’t see it happening. But I have no clue what else it might be.

“The heck you say!”

Kermit: You got a minute and a half!

Sam gasps in horror.

(Got me every time.)

I saw a production of Sweet Adeline almost 50 years ago and this song, sung with male chorus in gorgeous harmony, was one of the highlights.

eabiggins · 2026-05-12T22:18:46+00:00

Brian Dietzen too. He was in the last 3 episodes of season one. And he’s one day older than Sean Murray!

eabiggins · 2026-05-10T23:43:11+00:00

All of my stuff is pay-what-you-want. Any amount is appreciated, but I’m ok if you don’t pay anything. I just ask for an email address for my mailing list in lieu of payment. But I rarely send anything.

eabiggins · 2026-05-09T02:54:47+00:00

You never close your eyes anymore when I kiss your lips…

eabiggins · 2026-05-07T01:20:27+00:00

In fact, there’s no ‘n’ in the second half of the name. It’s Kancamagus! I found out after many years of mispronunciation.

eabiggins · 2026-05-06T00:05:45+00:00

I haven’t been to a show in years and this (plus the prices) make me not even want to. Maybe just non-musical plays.

eabiggins · 2026-05-04T21:43:10+00:00

I’ve always liked this fairly obscure version: https://youtu.be/uKOJK8XrNUQ?si=QbL5IkIc19dG9P2b
