名声大噪第一季

#名声大噪#S1E0203---这片子看得真爽～～比看GLEE之类好多了。

好喜欢IVY啊，声音比女猪的要有力得多。

女猪的声音太柔了，而且身材也离玛丽莲梦露太远了～～几首原创歌曲非常给力！！

最近美剧也看过不少，但很少有片子在第一集就如同子弹一般，“砰”，穿过我的心脏，让我跟打了鸡血一样，期待下一集的播出～哈哈 子弹里装的当然是兴奋剂了。。

当然，剧情本身并不新鲜，一群做音乐剧的人，包括演员、制作人、导演，投资人，词曲作者以及工作人员为了一部优秀的音乐剧的诞生而努力的故事。

这样的题材永远不会过时，何况，音乐的词曲都写的动人心弦，舞蹈看上去美轮美奂颇有专业的范儿，两位风格迥异但同样优秀的姑娘棋逢对手的对女一号的争夺，其中不知能有多少暗流汹涌～性感到死的又色心大起的导演跃跃欲试的准备对女演员进行潜规则～确实老套，却无法阻挡他的枝繁叶茂。

目前只出了一集，可以说埋下很多伏笔～比如，因为投资人在和LG闹离婚，资金会不会出问题？

音乐家和导演有过节，似乎曾经坏过事，是否搞出什么危机？

导演对女一到底是真想推倒呢，还是怀着一颗爱才之心加以考验？

女一面对导演的引诱，是否会影响到目前为止和一直理解鼓励他的男友的感情呢？

当然，最大的悬念还是：到底是那个性感的、还是那个清纯的梦露能够登上最后的舞台？

她们会怎样过招？

怎样SMASH?且拭目以待

要说这片子里最让我喜欢的，就是IVY了! 其实从第一集开始，这个无论声线，体型，和玛丽莲的相似程度都绝对完胜KAREN的角色就紧紧吸引住了我的视线，而之后她那跌宕起伏的命运也让人揪心.IVY尽管有时会耍些小手段，但总体上依然是个善良的姑娘，梅根·希尔提把一个配角演出了主角的味道。

曾经迷过GLEE的S1和S2，所以看了这部片子很难不去和合唱团那帮小屁孩比较，但说实话，是真的完全不同风格不同类型的片（只不过大家都唱歌而已），很有可看性，人物有自己的故事、性格，内容也围绕着一个主题展开，不再追GLEE的原因正是因为第三季的内容太散太乱，推荐大家看看，期待一直续签

大概寒假第一集预告放出后，这首开幕曲我就一直不能忘怀了。

今天看了本季最后一集，谢幕曲也没有让我失望。

这两首歌，基本涵盖了整部剧甚至玛丽莲·梦露的一生。

终于有这么个剧出现了，看得多年潜水的我也忍不住出来冒个泡每条叙事线都挺对我胃口的Julia仍依稀带着grace的影子和Tom也太有爱了(话说他真是直的？

),和Michael的火花四溅，一向有点老大叔范儿的好老公得知真相后也爆发得巨man哪。。。

还是很希望这个有爱的家庭持续下去。。

我一直喜欢katie。

我不看ai，在所有ai出道的歌手里，我就俩有印象：一个是Daughtry(拜托谁不爱Daughtry) ；一个就是她。

我甚至对carrie underwood毫无感觉。

可是她,她太漂亮了不是吗?可她就是红不起来，出了几张砖也找不到路线。

签了david foster，和chris botti之流厮混也没辙。

滥俗中产市场不广袤啊，比不上青少年市场，这年头出不了diva，某位diva唱国歌看得我心惊胆颤。

90年代太遥远，celine dion今天出来会不会红都不好说，她不会饶舌也不会耍性感。

大环境就不适合她火吧，不象carrie underwood是唱乡村的，广大农民哥们就爱金发翘臀小甜妞。

不对，现在连平胸没屁股的刚成年罗利他们都收，这世道变得。

也不象lea，大嘴巴妞，意大利和犹太人混血，继承了歌剧故乡的好嗓门，老老实实从剧院唱起唱到电视。

比唱功，你比不过她。

所以一开场，台词就亮了身份，我只是个邻家女孩。

没错，选秀邻家女最受落，何况是美人邻家女；做明星就两码事，乖乖牌这世道怎么混，没有气场啊。

所以我相信，nbc高层真有人铁了心要捧她吧，才有这么出戏出来。

海报上那青春飞扬的架势啊，她是绝对女一号。

这配她的卡司都懒得提了，Jack Davenport同学你死哪去了！

天才里普里那惊鸿一瞥从此一溜烟没了踪影，现在才出来！

看了个首集，给4星鼓励下吧，当然不能和原版fame比，但比那个莫名其妙的重拍版，也好太多了吧！

nbc拜托您这次别砸了好吗?知道你贴心，这个剧，分明就是专门给gay看的......这话太不政治正确了，应该是，给某些gay看的。

最后一句，和glee没有可比性。

再加一句，连龙套都有alex wong!华丽得闪瞎我眼睛，nbc你要再像对待southland一样对待这个，我再也不看你这个台的戏！

Smash的剧情设定真的很渣，从第一集就能对走向略窥一二：青涩邻家女逆袭专业心机女二号成就smash。

不评判KM的表演，这个单薄的角色设定就已经限制住她了。

又要扮好人，还要作为女一多唱流行歌巩固市场，虽然出不了彩，但是按照众星捧月的套路应该也比较保险。

小白兔灰姑娘的故事在自影视平民化开始已经辉煌了两个世纪。

无论冲突多么狗血女主多么单纯到让人捶胸，只要结局美好，总有观众愿意为他们的草根明星梦买单。

只是在选秀节目过分曝光后，所有人都看清风光背后永远有累累血泪。

在这个没有童话的世界，选一个从选秀中摸爬滚打出来的歌手再扮回童话已经不再有什么说服力。

在女一单薄化的同时，她的宿敌女二形象却在日益丰满。

而Megan不只有“丰满”的背景故事和细腻的感情转变，更有“丰满”的声线和“身材”。

这才是怎样的剧情粉饰也装不出盖不住的star quality。

有点跑题了咳咳。

回归主题，最后一集为Ivy哭惨了，她的绝望和无奈，以及专心致志的坚持让人心碎。

Art is never therapy; art is poison.我只是重复的想如果被一个不远如我用心的新手抢走角色和一切，我会怎么做。

要承认的是在艺术里本就没有公平和正义可言。

只是作为女二的你我，既不能为了那些抓不住的幸运荒废了用心，也不能让得失心太重拖累了最初的纯粹。

我相信Ivy总能在重生后在那么多欣赏她的人的推荐下找到自己的smash。

'Smash' finale recap: Let Megan Hilty be your starMay 15, 2012 | 11:36 amJust before the last episode of the first season of “Smash” aired, show runner Theresa Rebeck announced that she would not be returning for Season 2. Instead, Josh Safran, a "Gossip Girl” producer, is coming in to, in the words of Tom (nee Christian Borle), “reboot” the entire show.Though this type of personnel change isn’t unheard of, it is rare for a major show to lose its captain this way, and one can only guess that Rebeck, a creature of the theater, decided that some of the magic that she was hoping to translate onto the screen was irretrievably lost and that she was better equipped to work on a smaller scale with the strong stuff, rather than the diluted version writ large. Or perhaps she just realized that the show, as it stands now, is massively flawed and that the energy it would take to right the ship wasn’t something she was willing to waste on Katharine McPhee’s mealy-mouthed line readings anymore. Or perhaps she was asked to gracefully exit to make room for a helmer who understands how to take the show’s potential and deliver something worthy.Because this show does have potential! When I watched the pilot back in January (doesn’t it feel like years ago?), I knew that this was a show that would live or die on the score. Marc Shaiman and Scott Wittman came out of the gate blazing, with numbers like “Let Me Be Your Star” and “The National Pasttime” that have held up throughout a season of listening to them -- at least as well as any Broadway soundtrack holds up. And with the exception of a miscalculated Ryan Tedder number and that bizarre turn to Bollywood, the show’s best element has always been its original music.Take the closing number from Monday night, “Don’t Forget Me,” a final energetic ballad that led into a “Let Me Be Your Star” reprise. Even though I was furious that it was McPhee singing it and not Megan Hilty -- but more on that in a bit -- the song moved me, and I thought it was a fitting way to end a musical about the life of Marilyn Monroe. She pleads for the audience to remember her good qualities, how hard she strived, and not how hard she suffered. She wants to be a legend. A tall order, but as Marilyn is the textbook definition of legend in our culture, it doesn’t feel stretched, and even the fade-in of a large projection of her face comes at just the right moment. It’s sappy and overstated, sure, but so is much of the best work on Broadway, and I know I would have applauded like mad for that finale had I been in the audience.So what we’re left with at the end of the first season -- and they haven’t even made it to Broadway yet, oy -- is that the show within a show works on some basic level. The thing that doesn’t work is the outer shell, the NBC show, and I think Rebeck saw the writing on the wall about that. But because NBC is pressing toward Broadway with this thing, they will have to figure out a way to make it better. And I think we all know that means not just handing over the reins to Karen.Here’s the thing: I see what they’re doing here. Karen is the more moldable, malleable, Norma-Jeanable option for the role; she is the pre-Marilyn Marilyn, prone to fits of shyness and doubt and occasional reveries of intense talent. But she’s also boring and stiff, and those are two things that Norma Jean never was.I understand why Derek is seeing her strange ghost wander around the halls like a specter from his own personal version of “Scrooge.” His vision of Marilyn is that of an innocent, a child, a ball of beautiful clay that men shape. And while it's problematic that the director of “Bombshell” has a misogynistic skew on the whole story, it does fit right into Derek’s persona. He likes his women to be little girls, delicate flowers, requiring his attention. It’s worth noting that when he was the sweetest to Ivy, she was at her lowest point, abusing drugs and getting kicked off stages. He wants to be the big daddy in the room, and Karen is a canvas on which he can paint that fantasy, down to her backstage melt-down. He has to coax the performance out of her as if she’s a baby bird, rubbing her curves and telling her that she’s a star, that he loves her. There were many men that treated Marilyn this way, and it possibly killed her. Which is to say, Derek has chosen Karen for now, so that he can treat her and mold her however he likes. I’m just not sure that it won’t kill her in Season 2. Just wait until she sleeps with him and he loses interest (and he will).It wouldn’t be such a problem that Derek went with Karen as the big choice if the show didn’t have such a captivating starlet in Hilty. McPhee did a serviceable job on that last number, but I kept thinking that Ivy would have brought something else to the song entirely. Karen’s “Don’t Forget Me” felt like a pleading, a wish. I bet Ivy’s would have felt like a command. The show is so miscast, in that Hilty is clearly a Broadway performer with the chops for that kind of theater, and McPhee is more of a pop star who somehow keeps beating out the Broadway performer -- it doesn’t make logical sense. We are all supposed to suspend our logic and go with the idea that Karen’s the raw talent who is secretly a genius, but I don’t know why they keep pushing that narrative when clearly it isn’t true.Hilty is the real genius in the Marilyn role -- even Anjelica Huston knows that, even if she couldn’t sway Derek -- and if I were here, I would be contemplating the fistful of pills as well. The show wants us to care about Karen and to despise Ivy, who sleeps with other people’s boyfriends and tries to sabotage everything. But the best person in real life is not always the best person for the job, especially when it comes to show business. I hope that next season they let Ivy redeem herself and take her place. Bernadette Peters needs something else to do besides look devastated.Borle told the L.A. Times that next season will focus more on the nuts and bolts aspects of putting on a Broadway show, and less on the soapy drama, to which I say (like Sam) hallelujah! My favorite little bits of this episode were Julia and Tom trying to hammer out orchestrations and the stage manager trying to keep everyone happy during a crash run-through. I’d gladly take more of the technical behind-the-scenes sausage, which the pilot was so good at portraying with auditions rather than plot lines involving Dev or Michael Swift. I can’t even get up the energy to worry about the fate of Karen and Dev. She’s a star now, so I’m assuming that relationship is going to fizzle under her spotlight. As for Michael Swift, he may have impregnated Jules, but that doesn’t make him less creepy or predatory. All he has done is thwart their Chinese baby plans.The only side character who remains compelling at the end is Ellis, who threatens to enact revenge on “Bombshell” while wearing a red devil suit. His little speech to Eileen about doing what needed to be done (a.k.a. nearly murdering a movie star) and how near-murderers never get coffee for anyone was preposterous, and he deserved to be fired. But part of me thinks that in 15 years, Ellis is going to be one of Broadway’s most successful producers. He is not afraid to get his hands dirty with peanut shavings or possibly blood, and showbiz tends to reward insane ruthlessness. I hope the second season explores this dark patch instead of just making him the villain. Ambition does have its place on Broadway, and I’m interested to see where Ellis lands once he learns to harness his.And that’s all she wrote, folks. See you next year, when we hit the Broadway stage. Will Karen even do a hip thrust that doesn’t make her look like a fembot? Will Ivy channel Marilyn even more than she already does with an overdose? Will Nick Jonas give back the Degas? Will Ellis burn down a theater while he stands there cackling? Will Anjelica Huston ever sing again? And how long can Julia hide her belly beneath her flowy Eileen Fisher garb? All will be revealed soon. Until then, don’t forget Marilyn, or she will haunt you.The Songs!“Mr and Mrs Smith” 2 out of 5 Jazz Hands. Karen has about as much chemistry with Michael Swift as Julia has with her own husband. Not a great start to her star turn.“Howl” 3 out of 5 Jazz Hands. I really love this song and the jingoistic USO choreography, but I don’t love Karen in it. Ivy standing backstage imagining her own rendition (P.S. “Smash,” please stop with all the flashbacks in Season 2 -- it’s like shaking your own hand) doesn’t help Karen any, as she was so clearly better, effortless and charming at it. Karen gets through the number, but I am not seeing this extra spark that Derek tells Ivy about. She looks mechanical and scared.“Don’t Forget Me” 4.5 out of 5 Jazz Hands. And then she brings it home, and it’s magical. This is one of Tom and Julia’s best songs yet. Maybe they should always cram in a new ending on the day of the show to keep things fresh. I wasn’t feeling Karen’s tragic sexuality in her suicide scene, but her begging not to be forgotten in this number made me forget how much better Ivy would have been and just focus on McPhee in the role. Because we are stuck with Karen as Marilyn going into Season 2 -- at least for a little while -- any number that makes her more likable is a good thing.http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/showtracker/2012/05/smash-finale-recap.html

7次tony提名2次获奖，8次drama desk提名3次获奖！

熟悉百老汇的应该没有人不知道她吧，出演过的剧目一大堆，音乐剧大师桑德海姆的御用我随便列几个她出演过的剧目：song and dance（tony获奖），into the woods，Annie Get Your Gun (tony获奖)，Sunday in the Park with George，Mack & Mabel……Lyle west——饰演者Nick Jonas大部分人知道他应该是因为Jones brothers，不过人家也是混百老汇长大的，童星时还可爱，但是长大了唱功和演技也没见长，放音乐剧里实在太弱，尤其是在悲惨世界25周年演唱会上饰演马吕斯的杯具表现，获得封号“小神马”演出剧目：悲惨世界（小时候演伽弗洛徐 长大了演马吕斯），音乐之声，美女与野兽，how to succeed in business without really trying（此剧在他担纲演出期间在百老汇关门大吉了）……Michael Swift——饰演者will chase音乐剧目：rent（吉屋出租），miss saigon（西贡小姐），秘密花园，蜘蛛女之吻，Billy Elliott，the story of my life……他最最让人熟悉的角色应该是rent百老汇告别秀里的roger，他演出过的剧目非常多，所以不怎么样的作品也很多。。。

不过他在smash里好歹唱了几首，算此次唱得多的了。

戏里Julia在怪物史莱克老公和roger之间纠结，戏外Julia的演员Debra messing约会的对象正是will chaseEileen找的投资人randy cobra——饰演者Terrence Mann音乐剧目：猫，悲惨世界，美女与野兽，亚当斯家族，洛基恐怖秀，the scarlet pimpernel，lennon……这位大叔出场不多但来头很大，他是两大音乐剧猫、悲惨世界的百老汇原版卡司，在悲惨世界里饰演沙威，在猫里饰演tugger，曾获两次tony提名还有一位大牌客串Uma Thurman，但她是电影圈的，而且太有名大家都知道，我就不介绍了除了以上人物之外，tom的约会对象sam，Ivy和Karen身边出场最多的几名舞者和伴唱Bobby、Jessica等也全都是货真价实的百老汇演员，个个拉出来都是能歌善舞的专业人士。

总之这部剧卡司可谓人才济济，十分强大，结果被坑爹的编导搞得如此狗血，看在原创歌舞不错的份上打个4星。

最后其实我只想说，看看这些帮你跑龙套打酱油的的演员的资历，再搭上一个艾美视后（Julia/Debra messing），一个奥斯卡影后（Eileen/Anjelica Huston），一个英伦大帅哥，Karen你好意思么，情何以堪，情！

何！

以！

堪！

呀！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！
