I don't recall seeing a thread about it, but then again I'm fairly new and haven't explored much of the board...
All I know is I stumbled upon it, while waiting for Doug Walker's (The Nostalgia Critic) review of the Holiday Special (see it on http://www.thatguywiththeglasses.com/, it's not up yet, but it will be soon).
As I was saying, I stumbled upon it, and I listened to 10 seconds.. couldn't listen to more of that.. stuff. Ahgggghh it hurtss it hurts so much....
You have to understand that musical variety shows were all the rage back in the 70's. Even the Brady Bunch had one! And this was pre-MTV.
And unlike the HS, there were actually trying to be funny. ;)
Where were you in '77?

I knew I should've searched better... Serves me as a lesson
You're right SilverWook... maybe it's just me I don't really like musicals... I like musical numbers in Mel Brooks movies, though, like "History of The World, Part 1", the Inquisition scene is one of my favourites because of the song, catchy music and lyrics (and, you know, the meaning and all that). Sometimes I wonder if Mel really does love musicals or he makes fun of them. Probably both.
