2gether: The Series

It's so sad that Michael Cuccione died, he was the second best one in the band (behind Chad of course). They're both such dorks!! In a good way, of course. The whole group just kinda disappeared after QT died. I love their music, the lyrics are hilarious. I liked how the show focused more on the guys than did the movie instead of talking about Bob Buss or whoever all the time. If anyone has tapes of the show, e-mail me; I may be willing to buy copies...

I think that 2gether is one of the best shows on television. They've accurately identified the stereotypical archetypes of the omnipresent 'boy band' and they play it up for all they are worth. Whether it's Chad campaigning for 'Urban Slut Teen Dream of the Year' by exploiting his shyness, or Q.T. using his fatal disease to pick up girls, Mickey kidnapping a shoe store's mascot because they won't give him a refund, Doug sleeping with their boss 'for the good of the band', or Jerry having girl troubles, they overplay and play off of the wacky situations thrown at them. Full of one liners and goofiness, this show deserves to last way longer than the trend of boybands that it's spoofing. Noah Bastian is one of the funniest people on television today as Chad, 'The Shy One'.

I think that the show 2gether was hilarious. I don't think it is anything like the Monkees, and it is a great spoof on boy bands. It's a shame that 2gether is no longer aired on television. However, now you can watch Evan Farmer (Jerry) on While You Were Out. Also, I just wanted to comment that the Beatles are NOT a boy band, as someone else had mentioned.

When I first heard about 2gether, I said "Oh Great, another boy band, like we don't already have enough!" But once a friend of mine just told me to sit down and watch it I fell out of my chair laughing! I jumped up, went to Tower Records and bought both CD's, the movie on DVD, and the Official 2gether Scrapbook! They are now my favorite group ever. I would wait all week anticipating 2gether on Monday night, but now the youngest member Michael Cuccione (AKA "QT") died just 8 days after his 16th birthday! MTV has since cancelled the series and petitions have been all over the internet to bring 2gether back collecting 8,000+ signatures! This show has no old jokes and is the funniest show out there! Everyone who loves 2gether sign the "Save 2gether Petition".

I watched 2Ge+her, just for the reason that I thought it was about time people try to spoof the "Boy Bands". What a great job they did! Mickey (Alex Solowitz) is very funny with his whole bad boy act and he is also quite the hottie! Then there is Chad (Noah Bastain) who is very shy and a cutie in my opinion. Noah is probably the funniest one on the show. Then QT who is only doing this for the chicks (that's why he has the best moves). Jerry is the heart-throb and does a good job of it. Finally there is Doug, the older brother type. Most likely he is the backbone of the group with is intelligence and humour. Those guys are just a few reasons to watch the show! There are very funny one-liners on the show along with crazy dance moves and songs to go with them. All this to show that a bunch of misfits who have AMAZING voices, can form a boy band and make it big.
