If you care at all about musical theater, drop what you are doing, right now, and put this on.

If you really don't care about theater, you can finish what you are doing, but you've got to see this!

It will probably be the best thing you've seen on TV since you watched ''Rent'' for the tenth time. My wife and I watched in in two halves, Thursday and Friday nights. We're going to watch it again tonight. What a great show!

Football sucks! A bunch of guys on steroids and beer commercials. You need a break. Put tick, tick....Boom on for a half hour, then go back to the game. It will be the same as it was when you left, it's a big deal when they write a new commercial!

Please, please watch Rent, write up a review and post it here. I would very much like to see that.

It's the autobiographical story of Jonathan Larson, the author of ''Rent''. It's his second play and it's about writing his first play ''Superbia''.

It took him eight years to write Superbia and get it to a workshop. Then he started Tick, Tick....Boom and finally Rent and getting Rent into production, all in the next 5 years. He died the day of the first preview of Rent. Tick, Tick...Boom was never produced until after his death.

But here it is now. And it's amazing!

Oh, I know the entire history of it all. And I love Lin-Manuel Miranda who directed.

I thought so. I was just adding that for anyone who wasn't familiar with it. I thought I should have put some of that in my first post.

Anyway, you're going to love it. We watched half again last night and the second time through, I saw things that I missed the first time.

Slightly off topic. Took me a long time to see Rent. Knew the broad strokes... update of La Boheme, AIDS, a couple of famous songs, etc.

When I finally saw it, I was gobsmacked... Mimi didn’t die? WTF?

Haven’t been able to get past it.

Finally got around to watching. This was an great show and I wish I hadn’t waited for so long. With the way he spoke on what is going on in the world, it would have been amazing to see what could have come after RENT.

Also, Andrew Garfield did an excellent job and is very, very talented.

Anytime I see that Rent is on [I think HBO is running it lately] it makes me wonder when/if they're gonna get American Idiot on film?
