  • Broadway superstar Lin-Manuel Miranda jokes that his close relationship with "Wicked" director Jon M. Chu should have helped him score a role in the films, but it wasn't meant to be. You can see Lin-Manuel Miranda right now on Broadway in, "All In: Comedy About Love," at the Hudson Theatre.

      Amongst non-theatre people, Stephen's cameo was not distracting since he doesn't make as many public appearances as LMM. I saw wicked with 9 others and not a single one knew who Stephen Schwartz was 😂

    Dear CBS, please stop cutting these into 4-5 min clips. It is annoying to have to reopen my phone, click the next video, during the ending…and if I don’t click the pop-up quick enough I have to rewind.
    Jimmy Kimmel is not a better host. But, there is a reason his channel has 20 million subscribers, and this one is sitting at less than half that.
    The abrupt cutoffs are demeaning to the guest. Just give us 10-15 minutes of the entire interview. Save the 5 minute bits for audience questions segments, or one-off bits.
    I really like Colbert. But, I watch Seth Myers or Kimmel first just because of these ridiculous short clips that always end with an abrupt “sorry, we’ve got to take a quick break and we’ll be right back.” Believe me, even with our nation’s shortened attention span, your viewers can stay locked in to interesting guest for more than 4-5 minutes.
    Surely I can’t be the only person bothered by this?

    Yeahhhhhh good call by Jon Chu lol. That kind of a cameo that early on into the musical would have been incredibly distracting and a turn-off for audiences, and it's clear LMM agrees. Limiting the cameos to One Short Day was a much better decision.

      Oh, relax. Some people don’t like wearing jewelry, some have allergies. Some consider tattoos as more meaningful - or less. Some really love the symbolism of rings, other hate that tradition. Not every married couple wears rings, lots of jobs require you to take them off. Not every person that wears a ring on their ring finger is married.
