You joined us as we relived the magic of McKinley High by watching all six seasons of Glee… and now we’re keeping the music going.
This time, we’re stepping outside the choir room and diving into some of the most iconic musicals ever.
Think: Rocky Horror Picture Show. Grease. Hairspray. West Side Story. Moulin Rouge. Wicked. And of course, High School Musical.
But we’re not stopping there - we’ll also celebrate unforgettable musical TV projects like Smash, Nashville, Crazy Ex-Girlfriend… plus those surprise musical episodes of shows you already love, like Grey’s Anatomy, Riverdale, and The Flash.
We’ll be joined by cast members, musicians, and special guests to spill behind-the-scenes stories … plus the writers, creators, and friends who brought these projects to life.
And don’t worry, we’ll still have plenty of Glee surprises along the way.
If you’re a fan of musicals - on the big screen, on TV, or anywhere in between - join us every week as we break down the songs, the stories, and the magic that made us all fall in love with musicals in the first place.
