Well damn, that was a lot of fun.
I haven’t watched any of the NBC live musicals whose success no doubt influenced FOX to decide to do Grease live… or, excuse me, Grease Live! But I’d heard about some of the knocks they took for certain cheesy aspects and clunkiness and it was impossible to wonder if Grease might be in store for the same… even as the show itself (a personal musical favorite of mine – I was raised on the soundtrack, thanks to two much older siblings who were obsessed with it) is kind of impossible to truly ruin, due to its ever-catchy songs.
And the first few minutes of Grease Live did take some getting used to as far as the innate cheap feeling (we’re talking visually here) that usually accompanies live scripted TV, simply due to the circumstances. But director Thomas Kail (Broadway’s recent smash hit, Hamilton) was able to give the entire show the energy and fun it needed to sustain a three-hour run time, and Grease got better and better as it went along.
