Channel 4 in Great Britain names the supposed 100 greatest musicals of all time. Let the fact that the Pulitzer-Prize-winning How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying barely squeaks in at #93 — while 8 Mile is ranked #40 — tell you a little something about this list…
The awful thing is that they seem to have no contact e-mail address, so we can’t tell them that they’re fucking morons.
Jesus. A retarded cocker spaniel could produce a better list than that one.

British TV is swamped with these “lists” at the moment. Best book (LOTR), best Briton (Churchill), best single (something horrible by U2. The only defence I can offer is that they are compiled by public vote and should, more accurately have been titled “most popular” rather than “greatest”.

Yet Another Reason Why Julie Andrews Rocks
This list of the 100 Greatest Musicals has The Sound of Music at #2 and Mary Poppins at #5. Have you ever noticed that she has a carpet bag in both movies? (via hit-or-miss)…
Grease? Grease?????
Ugh.
