And so we come to the point that it seems so, so many shows came to in the late 90s and early 2000s: LET'S HAVE A MUSICAL! This week on Morgendorks, we're looking at "Daria!" When a hurricane threatens Lawndale, Daria and Jane have the deep misfortune to find themselves stuck on the Lawndale High roof. Will they survive? What will become of Lawndale? Who has the worst singing voice? Find out all of this, and more!
(It's Mack. Mack has the worst singing voice.)
We also dive a bit into the theory behind musicals, which is to say a lengthy discussion on diegesis. What does it mean? How is it applied to musicals? Why is it particularly important to television musicals?
Hoo, boy.
