Movie #2184 "Schmigadoon" (apple, miniseries) Make no mistake, this film is not for everyone, but it was nearly perfect for us! What fun! Making fun of musicals, and having one character (the guy) dislike musicals and yet put him in a big musical number whenever the film could! A very funny premise --- the cast is competent --- the songs are hummable --- and the musical numbers are spot on (esp. the one in the schoolhouse). I found myself looking forward to sitting down and watching every night we binged this. It was also fun to watch what musical each of the musical numbers or situations here were similar to --- or paying homage to. The list of shows was enormous what this mock musical gave a nod to --- and we greatly appreciated all the creativity shown here. We give it 4.5 and highly recommend to those who enjoy musicals in the first place.
