Jesus Christ Superstar - Live in Concert

Having read the reviews below I'm glad I'm watching this on Sky Arts in the UK.

There are no adverts - I can't imagine how badly this would be with commercials every five minutes. It would destroy the flow and all emotion.

There are comments below also about the sound mix and I can only think this was fixed also as the version I'm watching is decent.

All on all it's a great production, well cast and presented. I think that the ensemble are particularly good.

It can't be compared to the 1970s movie (which is excellent in its own right) as it is a filming of the stage but I find it impressive.

NBC should apologize to the performers and audience for completely ruining the amazing performances with sooooo many commercials. Musicals and endless commercials don't mix. I really hate broadcast TV. They've made me remember why I never watch regular TV.

I figured network television would mess this up as they usually do, but I'm pleasantly surprised. I am a HUGE fan of the '73 version, and know all the words by heart, from listening to the soundtrack over and over, more times than I can count. I love this musical-always have. I'm only part-way into it, but I'm enjoying watching and singing along.

Yes, the commercials are annoying, and the audience is loud, but the performances on the whole are impressive. Brandon Dixon is great as Judas, and very nice to look at. Lolololol. The '73 version will always be my favorite, but this is ok. Planning to stay up past my bedtime to watch the whole thing.

I thought the choreography and setting were excellent. The musical performances were stellar.

My only complaint are the advertisements. They wreck the flow of the show.

Such a great performance but all the commercials really screwed with the continuity of the show. A live broadway show is needs so much less interruptions.
