Hit List: The Musical - Act 1 (old) 

This is a very prescient comment was because the song definitely has “rewrite the stars” energy, which has been a huge commercial success

This is from that show smash right?

OMG this is me replying to an old profile of mine I guess lol. Yes it's from Smash @Leif and @Eleanor I agree with you, and it's also super interesting that BOTH songs were written by Pasek and Paul (who wrote the whole damn Greatest Showman soundtrack!)

Yes

@@Bikeshikesanddogs both writtrn by paul and pasek!

I read that there will be a "One Night Only Charity event" production of Bombshell on Broadway in June of 2015. The venue and exact date haven't been set as of today(1-19-15). I'm sure it will be tough to get tickets,but I plan on trying.

Yes, Bombshell is coming to Broadway for a one night only charity event. But, it is also being reviewed & considered for a long term run possibly in 2016. The concept behind the first season of Smash was to show the struggles & precess of creating a new Broadway musical, with the end run being that there is an actually musical that would become a real Broadway production. Originally, there was not going to be a season 2 and the creation of another musical. It was supposed to end with K.M. singing Don't Forget Me, and left to the viewer's imagination that it was a success & made it to Broadway. But, fan outcry brought about season 2 and it's disastrous ratings. NBC took a huge loss that season, and has suffered ever since. On a side note, I never understood what Hit List is actually supposed to be about. There are only a couple of songs that I actually liked, and never saw the plot of the show, although I have watched the series several times. I don't get it.

Nacho Mamma I don't know if Hit List was meant to be understood by special group of people, but I kinda get it, and love it. I don't know...

I've just never understood the storyline for it. And, I've watched the series several times.

Nacho Mamma Maybe you need a refresher class.

because the people don't appreciate excellent singers, great and an original show... only they like imitation like glee.

Daniie Castro I Know i want it backl

I read the show was very expensive to produce and the viewership waned in the 2nd season so NBC just pulled the plug. Doesn't that often happen with some of the best shows?

YEAH BUT LIKE COME ONNN

Originally, it was written to be a one season show, leaving it up to the viewers imagination about the success of Bombshell. The concept was to show what it's like to write, create & produce an entirely original musical for Broadway. And the end result would be an actual musical that would eventually make a run on the Broadway stage. YES! Bombshell was intended to be a REAL music. In fact, early 2015 there is a one night only charity event, and the entire Bombshell musical will be performed with it's original cast members. The hope of this event is to see audience response to the show. If it is received well & gets great reviews, there is talk of it coming to the Broadway stage in 2016.

Me to

Well they're working on bombshell now, so who knows. Maybe in a year or two it will be real. I've heard rumors that there's a plan for it to become a full stage show soon.

+Ella Brickman Where did you hear that?

On Facebook, through pages like Theater Mania. I know last summer was full of developments and plans, who knows what's happened to them all though.

They haven’t exactly done that yet but there was a full reading at 54 below with Jeremy Krysta and Andy

They said they couldn’t do Bombshell because Marilyn has too many songs, so she won’t be able to do the show every day/night

There wasnt enough of them in this show.

I found it perfect as well :) He should've put it in the show after.

I agree, it makes it feel like Jimmy sees her everywhere and then he goes to her concert and it make the scene... so sad.

Saaaammmeee, I feel that

😊😊😊😊😊😊

purplemind93 Jeremy Jordan was is Newsies, Bonnie and Clyde, and he was in supergirl (it's not a musical but shh)

I loooove that song, my favorite definitely “the love I meant to say” I cry every time

The guy who's wrote rewrote this story wrote the music for the greatest showman. You can really hear it in rewrite the stars

Hit list was way better than Bombshell!!

+Nacho Mamma Ivy's version of #2 in season 2 is sooo much better than the season 1 finale version I would put it at #1 and Second Hand White Baby Grand at #2. IMHO

Nacho Mamma umm megan hiltys version of dont forget me is WAY better! Hands down

I 100% agree, but Don't Forget Me is AMAZING for both Megan and Kathryn's versions honestly

Yeah the order is all wrong

You guys are able to view the updated video links in the description right? The order and songs that are missing were fixed, but youtube wouldn't let me upload them

It's the old version, that's why. There used to be a full updated version but I feel like it might've been deleted.

Me too! It's my favorite :)

Some Boys isn't a hit list song
