Shmigadoon - TV show.

Anyone watching this on Apple TV?

It’s hilarious.

Great for people for love OR hate musicals.

I watched the first episode and it was pretty funny. I don't have AppleTV+ so I may have to find other ways to watch it. There are so many musical references just in the music. You can hear things like "Ding Ding Ding goes the trolley..." and "...Oklahoma..." in the opening number of the first episode. Just musical phrases and rhythms that are quite intentional. I'd say the composer for the show really walked a fine line of "tribute" and "infringement." lol

Sorry, it's the Hodgkin's talking.

The show was super fun. Not sure what they'd do for a season 2, so maybe the first season will stand on its own.

It was. I thought the finale was a bit anticlimactic though.

Season two could be the Shmigdoonians go to New York and freak everyone out.
