Guest PasadenaCA Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 Thanks for the information. Two shows featured (Hedwig and Murder) that I hadn't heard of before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest zipperzone Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 How do you rate Jackman's performance as the MC? Personally I think NPH did a better job in the last 3 years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest EXPAT Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 Hugh Jackman was given very poor material. That opening was terrible and it didn't get much better as the night went on. I'm sure many tuned out with that beginning hopping episode. I"m not sure what they were thinking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest EXPAT Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 Here is this year's Tony's In Memoriam. But it was not broadcast on CBS but it was played during the commercial. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest zipperzone Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 I was wondering why it was omitted this year. I think it CBS should be ashamed of themselves for thinking commercials were more important than the Memoriam. There was plenty of other crap they could have omitted instead - like half (or all) of the stupid jumping opening. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest EXPAT Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 This was the highlight of the night for me. Jennifer Hudson blew me away with her rendition of the new song from the upcoming "Finding Neverland" called NEVERLAND. Utterly amazing. . . https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yUlD_PERXmI Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember when Simon Cowell told her she would never make it big? So much for American Idol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
