Located on a small expansion shelf about midway between the Third and Fourth Circles, Musical Hell is presided over by Diva, a minor demon charged with passing judgement on the worst musicals ever committed to film. (She still hasn't figured out if this is their punishment or hers.) Take a seat on the bench and have your earplugs ready, because court is now in session.

New videos posted on the first Monday of the month. Other viewpoints, news, and general ramblings posted when they crop up.

o/...We'll have to just pretend there's neat stuff out there...o/
o/...And try not to look real stupid on this rug...o/
Maybe Genie wasn't imprisoned in the lamp, maybe he was just sitting tight until he reached a time period when his lifestyle would be acceptable.
Man, when your cast is snarking on the lyrics in the middle of the show...
o/...Hey hey, we're the Monkees!...o/
Okay, the subtext is becoming less and less sub by the moment...

Can I use one of my wishes to give severe intestinal distress to whoever thought using "BFFs" in a lyric was acceptable?
Ah yes, the magic...golf cart of the Arabian sorcerers!
With Paul Lynde as the Genie
