Recommendation: Schmigadoon! (Season 1, 2021) creators: Cinco Paul, Ken Daurio cast: Cecily Strong, Keegan-Michael Key, Alan Cumming This is like a dream that I think many musical lovers, especially those in love with old Golden Age ones probably once had. A town that is nothing but musical references, where "life is a musical every day". The fact that you get to see it and have Barry Sonnenfeld's direction guide you through it is just a cherry on top of it. This is a show that is made by musical nerds for other musical nerds, and I LOVED it. There are problems, and some of the pastiches and parodies tend to get a little heavy-handed, but that is balanced by a great score and a lot of great musical scenes that follow it. It shows a lot of care that have been put into making something with love and passion, and that really shows in the final product. The passion oozes out of the screen into the eyeballs of people watching it. Also, I would be amiss not mentioning the great job that the ensemble cast did. They really embodied the characters, and from big roles like Alan Cumming to small ones like Martin Short, it was a joy to see them act, interact and definitely sing. I really recommend this show just for the crazy atmosphere, but if you are a musical fan my recommendation gets tenfold. Check it out, you'll have fun in Schmigadoon! #schmigadoon #cincopaul #kendaurio #cecilystrong #keeganmichaelkey #alancumming #comedy #musical #tvshow #parody #homage #ak88recommendation https://www.instagram.com/p/CSxGQ6ZgY76/?utm_medium=tumblr
