Found it! Was screaming at my voice activated remote. I got TV Guide for a year and it just piled up.

Last week I said to remote: Tyrone Power

Remote said back: turn off power. we can't do that yet.

EEK

So I depend on you. I have a friend who also depends on me.

Hah!😀 You made me laugh, @sunshine45! I'm not very good at reviewing the reviewers, but my impression is an overall thumbs up even though the opinions are mixed. I'm very much looking forward to the series and the reviews didn't change that, not at all. I probably shouldn't have used the word "spoilers," since we all know the basic storyline.

@dooBdoo Thank you for the link to the trailer- it looks really good. Especially with all the dance numbers ! I tried to google many of the trailer links - & they were removed...

A lot of good guest stars are playing supportive roles. An unknown is playing Ann Reinking, and they say she is wonderful.

I watched the show last night, I liked it and can't wait to see more. I don't get why a woman who is successful in her own right would allow a man to treat her as Fosse treated Verdon. He calls her and asks her to come to Munich. while he's in bed with the translator he's having an affair with. At the end of the episode after getting the gorilla suit Fosse wanted (also taking her like 72 hours), it looked like he had the same woman in his bed while Gwen was at the door. It is one thing to cheat on your spouse if that is the couple's understanding, but to publicly humiliate a spouse is not acceptable.

Thanks for sharing. I had no idea it was Paul Reiser playing Cy Feuer, did not even recognize his voice. And Evan Handler who was Harry on SATC is Hal Prince.
