Must-see TV
So, how many of you out there watched Angels In America last night? If you didn't watch it, shame on you!

I've been looking forward to this broadcast for a couple of months now. I don't have HBO, so I watched it with Ryan. We've both read the plays, and he came to see my college's production of it a few years ago. I think we were in agreement that Part 1, at least, was fantastic. We'll have to see about Part 2. It's been a long time since I've read Perestroika, whereas I have Millennium Approaches practically memorized.

Watching Millennium Approaches really brought back the memories for me. The University of Arkansas theatre department put it on during my senior year of college, and I was the assistant director. I lived and breathed that play for weeks. It ended up being a smashing success, and I shed a tear every night when Julie descended into view. While I was watching HBO's version, I couldn't help thinking "That should be Kris and Owens in this scene!" or "Hey, that's the scene that Jeremy and I did in Acting II class!"

It's nice to see something that you love brought to life so beautifully.
