But someone else mentioned it in connection with Allison Janney's big number in "9 to 5."Estherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16076517542540421210noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1912669500934497251.post-87009362675426122872009-07-31T09:29:56.641-04:002009-07-31T09:29:56.641-04:00I did not love the show, but would have liked it t...I did not love the show, but would have liked it to have a longer run on the strength of the cast. My sense was meh material partly redeemed by committed, energetic performances across the board. <br /><br />Do you know the musical version of Woman Of The Year? Not a great musical, either, and also with a lead who couldn't sing or dance. But while I can't remember a note of One Of The Boys from 9 to 5, I can't get OOTB from Woman Of The Year out of my head. That song in 9 to 5 immediately put me in mind of Woman of the Year, and not to 9 to 5's benefit.Robinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08347625952787521456noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1912669500934497251.post-92185279850849665892009-07-29T23:25:00.683-04:002009-07-29T23:25:00.683-04:00Well, I actually don't have the cast recording...Well, I actually don't have the cast recording yet. I was just basing my review on seeing the show. I am disappointed that it's closing. I know this is a minority opinion but I really enjoyed it. I had fun and the story resonated.Estherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16076517542540421210noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1912669500934497251.post-28620755852271496412009-07-29T11:19:15.700-04:002009-07-29T11:19:15.700-04:00Your review of the cast recording is much more pos...Your review of the cast recording is much more positive than mine was. I was disappointed. I'm sure it has to do with me not having seen the show, and basing my critique solely on the score.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1912669500934497251.post-14636337890547995262009-07-29T11:17:55.468-04:002009-07-29T11:17:55.468-04:00This comment has been removed by the author.Bobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02356178842101974805noreply@blogger.com
