I heard a little of the AI theme music in the music for this TV show.

I know (acquaintance anyways) someone from Chicago (where I am) who moved to NY and has had supporting roles on Broadway (musicals) with good reviews! I bet she auditions for this. Her name is Ginifer King. She'd be a good Sandy.

It's totally an AI ripoff but with more British judges and a Brit host (who was hardly seen). Got bored after the first hour and left the family watching it.

Oh thank you Lori. It is on here in about an hour and I was so looking forward to it. Everything as been negative so far. I can't wait.

I liked the fact they didn't focus so much on the bad performances, and that they let through (at least to the dance audition) the cupcake tapper and Sunshine. Would have been real interesting with one or the other of those continuing.

The main thing I haven't liked as much is that we keep hearing the same Grease song over and over. I know they need that for comparison, but that part did get a little boring.

I liked Billy Bush.

I liked the last guy who was taken for the Danny role (the one who is slightly older). I already wish he would take the whole thing!

I'm looking forward to the New York auditions -- with all the talent trying to break into Broadway, I'm thinking those auditions will be much better. I have to laugh, though; as one who has cast many HS musicals, the age-old lament "not enough guys" is true for the big wigs, too! :-)

Hey, LoyolaMom! What a coinkydink! :-)
I used to have the soundtrack (on 8-track, of course) and on cassette, and loved to sing along. I still know all the songs by heart. But don't worry, I'm not auditioning!

I sort-of enjoyed tonite's show even though it tries to copy AI much too closely. I enjoyed the contestants. I didn't care for the contrived drama of some of the contestant's stories, or the overly frequent commercials. Too much crappy fluff and not enough auditioning is causing me to lose interest already. They need to edit better and tighten this show up. I changed the channel at 9 PM without any regrets.

i always think it gets much better when they go live - since the auditions for any show are always rushed and edited - cant wait to see the finalists

I'll admit that I enjoyed it but as much as I like it I can sure see myself getting tired of the Grease soundtrack by the end of this one.

I watched the first half hour, tivoing it though and I'll watch the rest with the family later this week. My one complaint so far, the auditions bore me after a few minutes (same on AI.) I'll enjoy it more when they get past the auditions.

I also dont like that they show judges faces more than the contestants when they auditioned.

Babyruth, my best friend and I saw the movie so many times we had memorized the lines! I still have the l.p. of the soundtrack:-).

I thought there were way too many commercials but I'm looking forward to next week and then the live portion. I love a stage voice!

I really enjoyed this! I like that it wasn't focused on the negative. I really enjoyed being able to hear the judges comments during the dance auditions. It was nice to hear the way they 'think'.

I liked it!

I can't believe there are that many people out there with no close friends or if they do have friends that they let their close friends audition when they have no talent.

I enjoyed it, too. I was laughing <and cringing>.

When that one lady in LA came out...dressed in black, that trained parrots or whatever she did...my dd came out of her room and said "Mommy what is that noise?" We started cracking up!

I enjoyed it, but then again I'm a dork. My only complaint is the commercials were killing me last night. This could have easily been a one-hour show.

Yes, the commercials were horrendous. I think they could have done 15 to 20 minutes of auditions and then start right up with the Grease Academy. Why do these producers think we want to see the auditions?

Some of them were funny, but it gets old after a while.

I don't understand why Cupcake and Sunshine were eliminated. Especially Cupcake. She could sing AND dance rings around the others. If it's her weight, she could lose it. Just hire Trainer Bob and she would be perfect. I loved her voice, dancing and her spirit.
