The clip you showed of Jane Krakowski doing the fast patter in the courtroom was clearly based on the I'm not getting married song from Company and the Promises, Promises number was the one with Ann Harada and Jaime Camil which you didn't show. And you didn't mention the MC from Cabaret (Ariana Debose) although you showed her, let alone Cecily Strong's Maybe This Time number from Cabaret. And what about the Dreamgirls number in the final episode? And your comments above reference Into the Woods and Gypsy, which were not included here in any way. But thanks for featuring this show. it's awesome!

This show is so clever in what it does with all the musical references and how it goes about it. I was heavily amazed that they merged Ms. Lovett and Miss Hannigan into one character and the end product didn't disappointed, because it fit so well!
Schmigadoon! is what I've been missing! It's like American Horror Story so far, but it's all musical related and I can't wait to see what they come up with for Season 3

If anybody here likes the show and is somehow still unaware, Broadway By Ghostlight has a fantastic series of episode breakdowns, I mean schmeakdowns, as well as deeper dives into the choreo with the actual choreographer. Stealing Focus and Mickey Jo Theatre also have great breakdowns, but Marc goes above and beyond and I strongly encourage everyone to check them out.

My favorite Company reference is hands down Jane Krakowski's patter homage to (Not) Getting Married Today. Also love the note-perfect plays on Pippin.
We're Good Enough to Eat is definitely riffing on Annie, but it seems a lot closer to You're Never Fully Dressed Without a Smileit even ends with Eat, Darn Ya, Eat, which references Smile, Darn Ya, Smile.

This show is such a high quality love letter to musical theater history. I seriously hope it goes on for seasons and seasons; there are so many references it's insane. This video barely scratches the surface on how much there is to get out of this show as you watch

Doves character in Season 2 really makes me wanna see her perform in Cabaret.
That being said. I absolutely loved S2 since this was the era of musicals I was more familiar with and loved all the references. I cant wait to see what they do with Season 3

Topher is more Claude from Hair than Pippin. He leads a group of hippies and his intro song is obviously more a parody of Where do I go than Corner of the Sky. Also the Grease reference is also from Goodmorning Starshine it just the Grease choreo.

Just binged both seasons in 3 days. Loved it but especially this season. Just wanted to point out the lets get naked number was a tribute to the fact the cast members get naked at the end of act 1 in Hair.

I enjoyed season 2 even more than season 1. I love all of the musical references. Talk to Daddy and Famous as Hell have been on repeat in my head since I binged season 2 a couple of days ago. Love it.

Think I preferred Schmicago to Schmigadoon.
If they do a 3rd season, hope it's a Schmocky Schmorror Schmicture Schmow, the darker musicals are my favorite, topped by Little Shop of Horrors.

I cant believe you didnt mention that Dooley and Mrs. Codwell teaming up in an orphanage was all the sweeter if you remember Kristin and Alans performance in the Annie movie from my childhood!

Although season 2 is darker, but surprisingly I love the songs. Not to mention a bunch of great Broadway performers that appear in a series is like a dream come true.

I came across Kaput and I thought Dove Cameron was performing a song that was scrapped from caberet. Or that I somehow missed. I even looked it up. Such a good song

I love that sly _The Sound of Music_ reference during the Chorus Line. All the _Chicago, Caberet, _ and _Godspell_ references were enjoyable, too.

I feel like Melissas first number on the stage also echos of the roller skate number from Funny Girl, from her costume to knocking down the other girls

Topher is totally Berger from HAIR. (especially as portrayed by Treat Williams in the film. Not to mention all the Twyla Tharp choreography.

In your discussion of Company you missed that part in Jane Krakowski's song which is a direct reference to I'm not getting married today.

I'm sort of dreading season three. Rent? Urinetown?
Maybe they can do 1930s musicals ala Fred Astaire or Gene Kelly.

I adore how this entire show is a loving tribute to classic musicals. The writers have certainly done their homework.

Tituss Burgess and Jane Krakowski are both simply amazing here IMO. In a cast like this, that's impressive.

Pretty sure the Orphan-Little Priest parody was Never Fully Dressed without a Smile, not Hard-knock Life
