If only it weren't a musical
The musical aspect was the only reason I was even a little interested
It's enough to quash any curiosity I have about it. I wonder what the overall sentiment is for musicals.
Personally, I've always hated TV episodes that turn a non-musical show musical.
Yes, same for me, maybe with exceptions, for example Supernatural.
Great song but they just end it when it's supposed to be good!
Clone High, Buffy, and Mega64's musical episodes were all great top tier masterclasses.
I'm sure there are more I'm missing.
And Flight of the Conchords is a contender for best TV show of all time, IMHO.
That killed any interest I had in this franchise. The addition of Gaga solidified I wouldn't be watching this. One of the best psychological, low key dramas of the last decade, so let's make the sequel a musical and add a trendy pop star into it! Not to mention Gaga is an overrated, overproduced nepo baby. But that's just my opinion
