Now, she's worthy of taking the lead in a Broadway show....although definitely not Marilyn.

I wonder how she is going to impact. Or is Derek going to get another bug up his butt and decide we can have a black Marilyn? LOL

 

[Olympia]

Interesting! Inspired, actually. A lady who has accolades for singing and also for acting. She'll certainly add flash to the show.

Karen's new roommate.

I'm watching the first season again on hulu... I'm so lame LOL

I'm so bummed that Karen and Dev are over too much soap opera!

Tom's boyfriend Sam was promoted from "recurrring" to "regular" - http://tvline.com/2012/07/06/leslie-odom-jr-smash/

This is also the first time I've read the show being called a "singing soap" and not a "musical drama." Not liking this direction. BLAH.

Looks like Karen will waste no time getting over Dev - http://www.broadway.com/buzz/163179...-katharine-mcphee-on-the-steamy-set-of-smash/

I hate that they're taking it into a more soap opera direction... oh well, at least season 1 was enjoyable.

A little Will and Grace reunion! http://insidetv.ew.com/2012/08/13/sean-hayes-is-joining-smash/

that should be very funny...Sean is a wonderfully comedic actor and that was a very funny sitcom. It is rare to have all four leads so equally talented. I think Smash will be watched if they keep up with the quality of the broadway rehearsal scenes. I enjoyed it- and would like to rewatch sometime, too...
