TV Tonight: Ready For 3 (!) Hours of Peter Pan Live?
Posted By Bill Frost on December 4, 2014, 3:00 PM
Peter Pan Live! (NBC) Special: Last year, it was The Sound of Music; in January, it’ll be The Music Man; tonight, Peter Pan—NBC can’t launch a TV series anymore, but at least they have the high-school-musical market locked down. As with The Sound of Music, the hook (ha!) of Peter Pan Live! is the possibility that stars Allison Williams (as Peter Pan) and/or Christopher Walken (as Johnny Depp, er, Captain Hook) will blow a line or fall to their deaths In Real Time, because we are a nation of horrible, horrible people (or musical theater aficionados—same diff). And, is it just me, or does Williams in boy drag eerily resemble Jason Schwartzman? Probably could have gotten him waaay cheaper.
