I enjoyed it, and I'm not a fan of Peter Pan. I hope more productions are done in the future.

I really enjoyed it . The sets were amazing, and Allison Williams was very credible as Peter Pan. I would have liked her to have been a bit more animated at times, but it still was a very good portrayal.

The only character I couldn't get in to was CW's portrayal as Captain Hook, but everyone else did a great job with the singing and dancing.

Overall, I thought it was a wonderful production of a classic story. I hope they do more of these broadcasts!

I think he was camping it up a bit too much, he is really the only character I did not like at all

Stop being afraid of what could go wrong and start being positive what could go right.

I watched a bit but knew there was no way I could do 3 hours of it.

Christopher Walken was like a bad Saturday Night Live sketch.

I was looking forward to this but when it came on I lost interest lol I was very tired last night so that could have been why.

I watched most of it with the sound off. You can notice things more when sound doesn't distract. It looked like Walken was sometimes reading cue cards. Peter's facial expressions were limited, well, all of them were. There's something about stage craft that is stilted.

The scenery was amazing.

I had fun watching, though the length and all the commercials made it a wee bit tedious.

Maybe we've become so accustomed to the seamless near-perfection of filmed shows, so we focus on the failings and forget all the technical and human perils involved in every minute of a live production such as this one. I'll bet if we were standing in the wings of those sets we'd have a greater appreciation. I hope NBC will continue these offerings. Smile

I watched quite a bit of it and DVR'd it so I can go back and finish. From what I saw, it was fabulous. As i am still oxox said, Christopher Walken was a little campy, but it was fine.

I thought Allison Williams and the girl who played Wendy were terrific. I LOVED Allison Williams singing Neverland. Beautiful melody and really, really well done. They should be proud of themselves. Great job by all.

Why is it, when I have a 50/50 guess at something, I'm always 100% wrong?
