US TV: Smash

[toocrazy]

True...parang old movie lang ni sharon the epi kanina 

Ayaw pataob ni ivy kasi inecure ang lola mo...hahaha

Oh ivy is such a......toot! Lols. Parang musical version ni cherie gil. Kakagigil sa inis.

And it dosent help caroline either since a- ivy is sleeping with the director and b- looks like the composer guy has the high school crush on ivy....but wait is he gay ba?

And looks like caroline found a friendly group vaklas  .....with matching make over pa....

sino si Caroline? do you mean Karen?

[babyface82]

sino si Caroline? do you mean Karen?

ahah...caroline karen pala

oh yes si karen nga..messed up with my characters again....lols

[pixiedust]

I don't enjoy watching her perform, even if her voice is good, as much as Ivy Lyn. Pag si Ivy Lyn na the voice and the delivery, perfect.

i agree. maybe the fact that megan hilty is broadway trained (and seasoned) is a factor kaya she is effective as an actress. that and i really don't like mcphee that much kaya i can't sympathize with her character. kung mcphee vs hilty, eh hilty na ko all the way noh!

i saw dun sa isa sa mga previews ivy is gonna have an accident. parang nalaglag ata or something so she's on the bench for a while. baka yun na yung time to shine ni karen.

[muahmuahmuah]

tingin ko lang well, i've been ranting to my sister she records the show kasi, walang ka-appeal appeal si katherine mcphee to play lead or be in it mas exciting sana si christina aguillera she wouldve been good keri naman niya to tame down her spunkiness naman pag kelangan or some better unknown na really charming would work.   i find the casting weird rin like siguro since it's a mix of the movie/tv actors and theatre/ broadway artists may slight  disparity in popularity like you know they placed named artists to pull audiences to the show pero they lack credibility for the role since most get stereo typed with the characters they used to portray  siguro kulang lang ng eyecandy pa pero haneps sumayaw the othey guy naman yung one of the friends

[toocrazy]

i hope they show a different side to Ivy that would make her a likeable character. kahit gano pa sya kagaling kung sobrang diva mahirap sya kampihan.

on another note... Michael Swift (Will Chase) singing "A Song For You" -- DROOL!! naman, kantahan ka ba ng ganun.

[pixiedust]

^haha! i had the same reaction watching it. "kantahan ka ba naman ng ganun eh"

my oh my so much drama the last episode ha. nabitin tuloy ako. mas lalo na ko nahhook.

i like that they're showin ivy's insecurity. parang makes her kontrabida-ness more vulnerable. pero until now di ko pa rin nabbreak ang dislike ko kay mcphee. lalo na ngayon na medyo nagsstart na siya maging bold in some aspects of her character.

so far i like naman the character developments (other than mcphee). di ko lang like yung acting ni leo. but i'm looking forward to how leo's discovery will progress.

another thing i'm looking forward to is ang next steps ni ellis. medyo may kulo din sa loob yung taong yun eh.

sana nga hindi ma-cancel yung show.

May chance ang show! It went up 20% sa ratings. Mataas na yun! I think it will be retained, kelangan ng network (NBC) ng musical, pantapat sa Glee sa Fox, and yung upcoming na parang Taylor Swift inspired na show sa ABC (Nashville).

Na-awkward ako tumingin kay McPhee when she was singing in front of the mirror na pa-sexy. WALAAAAAA talagang dating sa akin. Parang gusto ko pumasok sa TV ko at i-shake siya, baka sakaling may bumagsak na emotions dun. Batong bato ang mukha talaga.

I also loved that part where Michael sang. Ganda ng boses ng lalaking to! Hindi kagwapuhan, pwede na. Pero pag kumanta, poging pogi. 

[babyface82]

whatever happened to julia's notebook from the previous episode? bigla ko lang naalala...

ang late ko talaga mag react....ateyyy pala yung composer- partner in crime ni julia...number one choice niya lang si ivy.....haha....akward lang yung bed scene niya with his date parag naghuhulaan sila ng ka-date niya...hahha

at ang miss ivy....diva pa rin...insecure pa rin....gumising ka girl, katawan mo lang habol ni direk....nakakainis ka...lols pero nakakaawa din sorta...

ako rin...akward pag trying hard to make pa sexy si karen/katherine. i dont personally like her but i like the "underdog tone" of her character kasi. but most of the times she is either kulang sa emote or oa naman sa emote....(director mode )...she's been singing better, i think ha. (compared to her AI and early days) pero somehow may kulang pa.

and finally na ohhhhhmaaayyyygulayyyy lang kami sa biglang kiss ni michael at julia ha tapos sabay pan ng camera sa taas.....sabi ko na eh...makikita ni bagets...

[pixiedust]

^same thoughts on the notebook. kaya i'm excited to see what ellis' next steps will be. abangan!

[pixiedust]

naiinis ako kay julia! at lalo na kay michael!!

etong si ellis feeling ko ang strategy niya is to climb up the ladder kaya kay eileen naman siya nagdididikit ngayon.

pansin ko lang i always feel bitin when watching this. nakaka dala kasi yung drama. so parang bigla nalang ako nagugulat na tapos na pala. kaya nakakahook siya.

can't wait for the next episode!

Nainis na rin ako kay Julia! LOL. Sabi ko the other week I'm beginning to see her as my favorite, pero with this week's episode, asar!  Pero natawa ako nung sinabi niya "He sang to me!"....ganun na ganun talaga yung reaction, eh. Nadala rin naman ako when Michael sang to her. 

And I love the son's reactions lalo na yung dumating na tatay niya and Julia was so guilty, nasabik bigla.

I love History Is Made At Night! I can't stop listening to the full track from Youtube. Ganda ng boses ni Megan (Ivy) and Will (Michael). Blends well together talaga!

Galing rin ni Megan to sing na parang may sore throat nga siya. Sobrang talented tong babaeng to!

[pixiedust]

^i love the track too! pareho tayo sis. i was listening to it on repeat sa background while i work. agree, ang ganda ng boses nila together.

and i love megan too! sa wicked pa lang love ko na siya. parang yung pag portray niya sa character kahit nakakainis dapat, parang di mo magawang i-hate.

[toocrazy]

History Is Made At Night might be my favorite song... ang sarap lang pakinggan. but we never know... baka may mas maganda pang song.

but yay i love Will Chase. kanatahan nalang nya ako palagi please.

[babyface82]

ivy is the one you'd love to hate...

she, the character ha iis every bit annoying and sarap kalbuhin but dang...she is good

Bad bad julia ha...bad michael also....susme playing with apoy....imbey talaga...

Itong si tom haba ng hair, ang wafu ng boylet niya ngayon ko lang napansin...

Si ellis marunong umepal sa boss...

Si eileen lang ata ang nakakatuwa...

[lilsaintsm0m]

I so love Katharine Mcphee Haven't  watched this series yet but it looks great love her voice.

[pixiedust]

watched the latest epi. not majorly drama filled like the previous episodes. this is my least favorite episode so far. walang "bitin" factor for me.

pero naiyak ako sa final scene.

i really like what they've done with ivy's character. she's the type that you'd automatically hate and then they show you her weaknesses and why she's like that (her insecurities before, now her issues with her mom).

buti nga kay ellis nasabihan ni eileen. feeling niya kasi porket friends na sila ni eileen eh may kapit na siya.

nakakainis si michael swift! you'd think medyo mahihiya na siya after nung dumating yung wife and kid niya but no! ang insistent pa din. at siya pa yung galit ha.

[Mindy]

^ You're right. That final scene was heartbreaking. Kainis kasi si Julia! Yan tuloy!

I got goosebumps when Ivy performed! And to think hindi pa daw yun best niya. Ano pa pala yung best?? Baka mapanga-nga ako ng katakot takot nun. She's so good!

Parang napanood na rin natin yung production nila, kahit sa studio lang.

So, wala na si Will Chase talaga? Didn't google yet for the answers, pero nakakainis rin yung character niya. Kaso lang pag kumanta rin, haaaay sige na nga, pogi points up!

And yes, I liked yung sagot ni Eileen rin kay Ellis! Buti nga sa kanya.

[_gigles_]

^sa credits guest star lang si Will Chase so baka wala na nga siya? pero I doubt it'll end like that syempre more drama factor malalaman ng asawa nila about the affair and what not. Baka mawawala lang siya sandali then babalik? Sino kaya ipapalit sa kanya if ever?
