Guest FourAces Posted June 10, 2013 Posted June 10, 2013 I never would have seen this if you had not posted it here. NPH is so likeable and so talented. Absolutely amazing performance. As a side not I noticed that NPH produced the entire show ... bravo Quote
Members Suckrates Posted June 10, 2013 Members Posted June 10, 2013 True to the song title, it was BIGGER......and as always Neil brought it ! Quote
Members msclelovr Posted June 10, 2013 Members Posted June 10, 2013 Thanks for taking the time to list the nominees and the winners. Very helpful. Quote
Guest zipperzone Posted June 10, 2013 Posted June 10, 2013 I thought the opening number was fantastic. He is surely multi-talented. However I wish he had not chosen to wear grey through the entire show. That colour does not flatter him. I also thought the rest of the show was somewhat lacklustre. And for my taste, there were far too many shows that revolved around children. Enough already, we see them in every second TV commercial. Quote

Members ihpguy Posted June 11, 2013 Members Posted June 11, 2013 Different strokes for different folks.... And I loved the choice of the grey with the red tie. There was a photo on line of NPH with his hubby, David Burtka, and the hub looked so somber while NPH looked so much more "festive" or dare I type "gay?" But then I am a Joan Ranger Fashion Police whore. Quote
Members wayout Posted June 11, 2013 Members Posted June 11, 2013 I enjoyed watching that intro video, thanks for posting it. Neil is a very talented person. I have to wonder if he wouldn't be a good choice to host the Oscars. Quote
Guest NCBored Posted June 11, 2013 Posted June 11, 2013 Thanks for posting this. I didn't watch the awards and I'm not a HUGE Broadway fan, but this made me smile. And I was really impressed by NPH's athleticism! Quote
Members TampaYankee Posted June 15, 2013 Members Posted June 15, 2013 For those who may have missed it as I did, it can be purchased for 4.99 on the VUDU cloud. Great video production values. Well worth it if you like Broadway and the Tonys Quote
