I adore how this entire show is a loving tribute to classic musicals. The writers have certainly done their homework. 💕
I can’t believe you talked about Company WITHOUT Bobby’s homage to “Not Getting Married” in the trial scene!!
Yeah they almost seemed to mention it as it was a nod to Roxie in Chicago, which was weird.
And they played that portion too. Crazy. Then I guess it's not surprising they didn't mention that Company's revival changed Bobby to Bobbie. She did say that the character was a mix of multiple characters in one, but it seemed like a nod to the revival for me.
@@Freelobsterrolls oh that was absolutely a nod to the revival, and they sing, "Bobbie baby" as she walks into the jail, another Company reference
I haven't seen Company but I did recognize that, you're right.
@@RutabegaNG I saw Company on PBS about 10yrs ago . (To be honest, it was not my favorite. LOL) but I think most theatre fan are aware of the song.
This show is such a high quality love letter to musical theater history. I seriously hope it goes on for seasons and seasons; there are so many references it's insane. This video barely scratches the surface on how much there is to get out of this show as you watch
Unfortunately it got cancelled. I have never seen the show but I loved how they paid homage to the history of musical theatres and not just the golden age. Wonder if the third season would have focused on the mega musicals of the 80’s!!
@@AutismThespian1993season 3 has already been written and did include 80s musicals. I’m so sad we won’t get to see it
You forgot to add that Kristin Chenoweth and Alan Cumming both were actually in the Disney TV version of Annie in 1999
Srsly?
@@duvshayep they played Rooster and Lily St. Regis
I love that sly _The Sound of Music_ reference during the Chorus Line. All the _Chicago, Caberet,_ and _Godspell_ references were enjoyable, too.
If anybody here likes the show and is somehow still unaware, Broadway By Ghostlight has a *fantastic* series of episode breakdowns, I mean “schmeakdowns”, as well as deeper dives into the choreo with the actual choreographer. Stealing Focus and Mickey Jo Theatre also have great breakdowns, but Marc goes above and beyond and I strongly encourage everyone to check them out.
Oh I'm definitely going to be looking that up.
Marc is so great!
Yay, thank you!
I enjoyed season 2 even more than season 1. I love all of the musical references. Talk to Daddy and Famous as Hell have been on repeat in my head since I binged season 2 a couple of days ago. Love it.
Additionally mine has "Everyone's Gotta Be Naked". I also enjoyed season 2 more, 'cause we are getting closer to the era of musicals that I prefer. Now that Josh and Mel get a kid, we are likely seeing references to the Menken/Ashman era next...
@@tobiasbenedictdrager965 I was trying to suss out what might be coming next. That does make sense.
@@tobiasbenedictdrager965i really hope so! Menken/Ashman music is the best musical theatre music in my opinion
I absolutely adore Schmicago. Everyone involved, writes, directors and performers are absolute masters.
Alan Cumming and Kristen Chenoweth are absolute gems 💎
Love the video! But you missed that Kratt has a bit of Caiaphas in him when he’s singing that song at the long table about killing Josh. It’s a direct reference to “This Jesus Must Die,” and the music HEAVILY implies it.
I LOVE this show!!! My only wish is that seasons were longer
I feel like Melissa’s first number on the stage also echos of the roller skate number from Funny Girl, from her costume to knocking down the other girls
Give it an EMMY now!!!!!
Cinco Paul can absolutely write the MOST earworm of songs. All of them stick in my head. Until the next one sticks in my head!
Tituss Burgess and Jane Krakowski are both simply amazing here IMO. In a cast like this, that's impressive.
Fosse is well-represented here in his various positions - Pippin, Sweet Charity, Cabaret, Chicago, those are the ones I'm most familiar with.
Then there was Godspell, Bye Bye Birdie, Superstar (two Jesus characters), Sweeney Todd, Annie, and they even managed to sneak in a little bit of Phantom.
Dove Cameron *has* to have studied Liza Minnelli for this. I about died at "Kaput," that could not have been more perfect. I did catch the Elsie mention but I love Cabaret, it would have been embarrassing if I missed it.
Kratt was more Caiaphas to me, I've never seen Hadestown. I think it just closed here or has one more week. Meant to, Just didn't get to it.
I've never seen Company, so I didn't get most of those references. Glad to know what they are now. You did miss I'm Not Getting Married though. That one I knew, I just couldn't remember what it was from.
I'm definitely going to have to rewatch. This was such a panic!
Aaron Tveit is so so good this season!!
My favorite "Company" reference is hands down Jane Krakowski's patter homage to "(Not) Getting Married Today." Also love the note-perfect plays on "Pippin."
"We're Good Enough to Eat" is definitely riffing on Annie, but it seems a lot closer to "You're Never Fully Dressed Without a Smile"-it even ends with "Eat, Darn Ya, Eat," which references "Smile, Darn Ya, Smile."
Jane Krakowski for the win! Her number was absolute perfection!! ❤
You missed that awesome musical number that referenced the Broadway musical “Dreamgirls”!!!
Loved that song even if spent most of it in tears.
The clip you showed of Jane Krakowski doing the fast patter in the courtroom was clearly based on the I'm not getting married song from Company and the Promises, Promises number was the one with Ann Harada and Jaime Camil which you didn't show. And you didn't mention the MC from Cabaret (Ariana Debose) although you showed her, let alone Cecily Strong's Maybe This Time number from Cabaret. And what about the Dreamgirls number in the final episode? And your comments above reference Into the Woods and Gypsy, which were not included here in any way... But thanks for featuring this show....it's awesome!
the scene with the fast singing in the courtroom was based on Not getting married today from Company.
My favorite Company reference:
“Add ‘em up, kiddo. Add ‘em up.”
This show is so clever in what it does with all the musical references and how it goes about it. I was heavily amazed that they merged Ms. Lovett and Miss Hannigan into one character and the end product didn't disappointed, because it fit so well!
Schmigadoon! is what I've been missing! It's like American Horror Story so far, but it's all musical related and I can't wait to see what they come up with for Season 3
Although season 2 is darker, but surprisingly I love the songs. Not to mention a bunch of great Broadway performers that appear in a series is like a dream come true.
Think I preferred Schmicago to Schmigadoon.
If they do a 3rd season, hope it's a Schmocky Schmorror Schmicture Schmow, the darker musicals are my favorite, topped by Little Shop of Horrors.
I'm sure you mean Schmittle Schmop of Schmorrors.
@@fosterfuchs NAY, while I would love a Schmittle Shmop of Schmorrors, my favorite musical is Little Shop Horrors.
I freaking love this show since it's a huge love letter to so many musicals, on top of being great fanservice for musical fans 🥰🥰🥰
Not enough Arianna Debose in Season 2.
She was only available for like 3 days of filming. That's why
If the show doesn’t get a season three, I’m gonna cry
You’re gonna have to start crying, my friend
Titus Burgess stole the entire season
Props for the rocky horror picture show too. The cops outfit at the end.
Who doesn't like a good musicial? It's always a pleasure to see a show reference another show once in a while. It gives it a new spin. Next video please
Good Enough to Eat also has overtones of Oliver.
Love this season!! I believe that part of Bobby's trial number was a reference to (not) getting married today from Company.
Another unintentional Hadestown thing in Schmicago was the song “Two Birds With One Stone”. If you’re a fan of Hadestown, you know what I’m talking about 🥀
Just binged both seasons in 3 days. Loved it but especially this season. Just wanted to point out the let’s get naked number was a tribute to the fact the cast members get naked at the end of act 1 in Hair.
this show was very well done, with great established talents and surprising ones
Amazing list! Makes me want to go back and watch this incredible season!
PIPPEN, Sweeney Todd, Chicago, Hair, Sweet Charity, Godspell, Chorus Line, Cabaret, Company, Annie.
Pretty sure the Orphan-Little Priest parody was "Never Fully Dressed without a Smile," not "Hard-knock Life"
It sounded like a little bit of both
the names of the club dancers are all the orphans in annie.
I love this show SO MUCH
No mention of Hair the musical? Or Chicago?
Topher is more Claude from Hair than Pippin. He leads a group of hippies and his intro song is obviously more a parody of Where do I go than Corner of the Sky. Also the Grease reference is also from Goodmorning Starshine it just the Grease choreo.
No mention of "There's Always a Twist" being a reference to Bacharach and David and "Promises, Promises"?
Great list, great picks! Thanks Ms Mojo!
I'll drink to that!!
I was so sure the Elaine Stritch character would turn out to be Lucy Barker/Blight's wife at the end!
Everytime I heard Kratt speak I kept getting Sheer Khan animated Jungle Book vibes
Also, not even an honourable mention for 'It's Over And Done'?? 😱
I can’t believe you didn’t mention that Dooley and Mrs. Codwell teaming up in an orphanage was all the sweeter if you remember Kristin and Alan’s performance in the Annie movie from my childhood!
Yes yes yes yes to all of this! Broadway by Ghostlight and I did full breakdowns of every episode for those who are thirsty for more.
Was going to say this, that account has the BEST breakdowns and explanations of all the references in schmigadoon! and schmicago - there were so many things he pointed out that I didn’t even know I overlooked on my own!
In your discussion of Company you missed that part in Jane Krakowski's song which is a direct reference to I'm not getting married today.
Genuinely can't believe Kaput is only at number 3. It's the entire reason I watched Schmigadoon!
Dove’s character in Season 2 really makes me wanna see her perform in Cabaret.
That being said. I absolutely loved S2 since this was the era of musicals I was more familiar with and loved all the references. I can’t wait to see what they do with Season 3
I’m hoping for a season 3 and maybe references to Rent and Wicked ❤❤
I'm excited for season 3 which I assume is going to be called Schment
If they stick to the "places as titles" conceit, I expect Miss Schmaigon.
Topher is totally Berger from HAIR. (especially as portrayed by Treat Williams in the film). Not to mention all the Twyla Tharp choreography.
How did @MsMojo miss the fact that Kchen and Alan were in the ABC/Disney 1999 version of Annie together doing Easy Street as Lily and Rooster????
There are references to Urinetown in Patrick Page’s character too…it’s a very clever show.
Am I the only one who thinks Mel’s outfits reference On a Clear Day?
All of her outfits this season are all nods to the costumes in funny girl
I'm sort of dreading season three...Rent? Urinetown?
Maybe they can do 1930s musicals ala Fred Astaire or Gene Kelly.
Love the idea of them ending up in an RKO or MGM film, but I have a hunch that season 3 will be all the big, huge '80s productions--Evita (1980) Cats (1981), Phantom (1986), Les Mis (1987), City of Angels etc. The chandelier and the phrase "One More Day" in the final episode could be foreshadowing...
@@miriamjacobson1904 OK- THAT is stuck in my head...Le Miz performed by people in cat costumes.
I'm hoping they lean heavily into Into the Woods.
@@TikiKrissyme too
I came across “Kaput” and I thought Dove Cameron was performing a song that was scrapped from caberet. Or that I somehow missed. I even looked it up. Such a good song
They gave Alan Cumming his original Cabaret hair cut/style
I agree the top pick! It’s very genius
The character of Topher looks just like John Rubinstein did in the original 1972 cast of 'Pippin', and seems to be a hybrid of Pippin and Jesus from 'Godspell', both shows with songs by the great Stephen Schwartz.
Dove Cameron is such an amazing artist and singer
No mention of the blink and you'll miss it nod to Billy Eliot in the audition s9ng.
Another miss was the 3 girls from Little Shop of Horrors
Yall need to do Central Park!
Shouldn't that be Schmonerable Schmentions?
Good video
Yeah a great show funny entertaining and it's been canceled
Alice in La La Land 🌉
Season 2 isn't even called schmigadoon so... probably should have changed the description it's more like never fully dressed without a smile the sound of music music man Finian's Rainbow Jesus Christ Superstar Hadestown these are other references
Wow you should have done a list of the top 10 musicals in schmchicago. Not this list
🤢
Cinco Paul is such a genius
